INTRODUCTION
• University of Minnesota
• Simulation possibilities
• Effects of Energy Level on Memory
Capabilities
• Nap Group
• Control Group
• Coffee Group
DATA SIMULATION: THE ISLAND
PARTICIPANTS AND RECRUITMENT
• Randomize Island Population
• Request Consent
• Replace Those who Denied
Consent
• Randomize into Treatment Groups
• Nap Group
• Control Group
• Coffee Group
RUNNING THE EXPERIMENT
• Real Time
• Test Memory
• Treatment
• Test Memory
• Wait 30 Minutes
• Test Memory
NULL HYPOTHESIS & ALTERNATIVE HYPOTHESIS
• Null: M1 = M2 = M3
• Difference 1: Memory Immediately After — Baseline Memory
• Difference 2: Memory After 30 minutes — Memory Immediately After
• Difference 3: Memory After 30 minutes — Baseline Memory
• Alternative: At least one of the groups means is different
THEORETICAL BACKGROUND:
NORMALITY
• Compare means One-Way ANOVA Normal
Difference 1 (Memory Immediately After — Baseline
Memory) was approaching significance (p=.0839) for
alpha=.05
TEST FOR NORMALITY
STATISTICAL PROCEDURES: KRUSCAL-WALLIS
• Not Normal Kruscal-Wallis Test to compare means
• Compared 3 differences, no significance
• Difference 1 approaching .05 significance (p=.0927)
• Compared 2 treatment groups at a time
RESULTS: SIGNIFICANT DATA
• Out of the 15 tests run, 1 significant result
• Comparing the baseline data to the data
collected immediately after intervention
(Difference 1)
• The coffee group (group 3) improved
significantly in the memory test compared
to the control group
LIMITATIONS: WHY IS THERE NOT MORE SIGNIFICANCE?
• Memory Test Type
• Coffee Caffeine Peak and Half-Life
• Intention to Treat
• Simulation
• Population
• Program
CONCLUSION
• Normal assumption
• Test for normality, Kruscal-Wallis
• Using Minnesota’s Island simulation, drinking coffee temporarily improves memory compared
to control group
• Limitations
FUTURE STUDIES
Memorize, nap, test memory
vs. Control
Previous literature
Longer wait after drinking coffee
Account for caffeine peak
