True
False
8) In an experiment with a treatment and control group, what does
d
= 2 mean?
a) The average participant in the experimental group did two standard deviations better on some measure than the average participant in the control group.
b) The average participant in the experimental group did two standard deviations worse on some measure than the average participant in the control group.
9) A large effect size might represent an unimportant result
True or False
10) To determine whether Adderall enhances studying, you give the drug to a group of 14 students and engage another 14 students as a control group. Both groups then solve 40 mathematical problems. The lowest score students can receive is zero; the highest is 40. Students who took Adderall received these scores: 32, 25, 17, 12, 17, 22, 27, 30, 27, 21, 19, 25, 23, 28. Students in the control group received these scores: 33, 21, 14, 20, 36, 11, 32, 12, 15, 18, 19, 22, 14, 13
