Is Bigger Better Or Is Less More? : American Compared To Non-American Consumption Habits, Amanda Bratcher, Sofia Aneas, Jesus Lopez Nov 2008

Is Bigger Better Or Is Less More? : American Compared To Non-American Consumption Habits, Amanda Bratcher, Sofia Aneas, Jesus Lopez

Undergraduate Psychology Research Methods Journal

The purpose of this experiment was to determine if American participants compared to non-Americans participants would choose a bigger consumable item regardless of its cost when asked to choose between a smaller and larger item. Participants were shown a series of items that consisted of five pairings of two different-sized consumable items and asked to state their preference after each set of items was presented. This process was administered one time with pricing information of the items made known to the participants and one time without pricing information, counterbalancing of pricing information was utilized. The results concluded that price did …


Red Bull Marketing Techniques, Jennifer Hogenmiller, Kailey Steuber Nov 2008

Red Bull Marketing Techniques, Jennifer Hogenmiller, Kailey Steuber

Undergraduate Psychology Research Methods Journal

The differences in marketing techniques using the product Red Bull Energy Drink was investigated in this research project. Three techniques were used: the participant was read aloud information, the participant read information from a pamphlet, and the participant was shown a power point presentation. These techniques were tested to discover whether the marketing technique influenced the consumer purchase of the product. 64 participants were tested, but only 31 participants’ data was used. Many participants’ data had to be excluded due to factors of affiliation and missing data. After conducting a one-way ANOVA, we did find statistical significance between the presentation …


Gender Strength Implications And Its Effects On Task Performance, Chelsea Schumacher Nov 2008

Gender Strength Implications And Its Effects On Task Performance, Chelsea Schumacher

Undergraduate Psychology Research Methods Journal

Throughout the history of research, there has been an immense interest regarding gender differences. Not only have variations in gender been observed through various social and physiological factors, but through cognitive factors as well. When reviewing previous research studies, it is evident that gender variations exist even when performing simple memory tasks. In the present study, the experimenter investigated whether implying opposing gender strength would have an effect on recall test performance. It was hypothesized that an individual would be motivated to perform more accurately on a recall test when opposing gender strength implications were introduced. When analyzing the results …


The Legacies Of Lindenwood: A Survey Of What Female Graduates Did After College, Elizabeth Dalton Nov 2008

The Legacies Of Lindenwood: A Survey Of What Female Graduates Did After College, Elizabeth Dalton

Undergraduate Psychology Research Methods Journal

This project looked at the women who graduated from Lindenwood College in the years 1955, 1965, 1975, and 1985 to see whether or not they used their degrees outside of the home. The hypothesis that more women would use their degrees outside of the home as a result of social changes as the decades increased was not supported as the trend began to decrease with the 1975 class.


Can’T Test This: Test Performance And Anxiety, Brian Judd, Danielle Merli, Jamie Zagar Nov 2008

Can’T Test This: Test Performance And Anxiety, Brian Judd, Danielle Merli, Jamie Zagar

Undergraduate Psychology Research Methods Journal

We analyzed test anxiety with performance on a standardized test. We had four groups of participants. We looked at two variables: time warning and presence of a confederate. We hypothesized that the performance of participants in a more natural test environment (testing in the presence of another test taker, i.e., the confederate) would perform worse than those who were tested by themselves, and that those who received a time warning would perform worse than those who did not receive a time warning. Those with a higher GPA would have performed better overall on the test. There was not a significant …
