A.What is the mean and standard deviation participant age? What was the range in ages.

B.What is the mean (and standard deviation)for the memory task? Do participants appear to view the film as violent/ Do they seem to have remembered (paid attention) to the clip.

C. What were the mean PAQ ( Provoked Aggression Questionnaire) scores before and after watching the film? Does there seem to be change in the levels of aggression reported across the experiment.

3. How many males and females took part in the study? note this by including the percent fro each group.
4. When making the following comparisons, which would be related and which would be unrelated?

a.Recall in a group of children before and after a training session Related/ Unrelated

b. Men and women’s scores on spatial reasoning task
c. a group of 20y old and a group of people when they were 20y olds and groups of 60y olds IQ scores

d. The scores onan IQ test of a groupof people when they were 20y and when they were 60y old.

For the above comparisons
1. Did the mean score increase or decrease after viewing the film?

2. Based on the analysis should we carry out a one tailed or two tailed test.

3. Was the result significant? write this out in figures and words, explaining the finding( make sure that this is appropriate based on your answer to the previous question.

5. looking at the scores on the memory task, it appears that some participants scored quite low on this. it is possible that they were not paying attention to the film clip and may not therefore have been affected by it. So, do run the t test again, excluding the people who scored below 5 on the memory test.

A. How many participants were included in the analysis? What is the mean and standard deviation for the PAQ before and after viewing the film for this sample.

B. Should it be a one or two- tailed hypothesis? is the t- test significant for this sub sample. ( write this out).

6. Redo the t-test on this group who thought that the film clip was violent.
a. How many participants were included in the analysis? What is the mean and standard deviation for the PAQ before and after viewing the film for this samples?

b. is the t test significant for this sub sample? Write this out in the result section.

7. Look at whether there is a correlation between the extent to which you were affected by film clip and the extent to which you thought the clip was aggressive.
This is to determine if there is a significant difference between this change in aggression and the perceived violence of the film clip.
Was the correlation significant? write this out.

8. What is the hypotheisi? how do you the findings of this study fit our hypothesis and the predictions made by the theories? Do you think there might be any limitations in the study design that could have affected the result.CLICK HERE TO ORDER THIS ESSAY!!!!
