Lab Report 1: Natural Selection Introduction: In today’s lab we learned how natural selection and survival of the fitness took place in Darwin theory by testing it out with four different utensils which were Spoon‚ Fork‚ chopstick‚ and clothespin which represent the four different types of bird beaks. Our goal was to see which one utensil ( bird beak) would outcome the other four utensil ( bird beak) by being able to survive with the limit amount of food‚ the environmental chances‚ and see who

Attitude Effects on Altruistic Behavior Abstract The effects of attitude on altruistic behavior was examined. A total of 9 college students participated in the experiment. The students were randomly chosen and then randomly assigned a group number 1‚ 2‚ or 3. There were 3 different groups of participants (i.e.‚ friendly‚ moderate‚ unfriendly)‚ each with 3 participants per group. To assist the researcher‚ the participants’ reaction time was observed.

cost-benefit analysis or as utilitarianism‚ where people debate on whether or not their act of kindness is a costly or a gain for them in the end. Conformity can be defined when a person changes their behavior in order to satisfy a group norm. This hypothesis reflects the findings from the Kitty Genovese which exemplified the bystander effect; the phenomenon where if there are more people present‚ fewer people will be willing to take action. This experiment was an attempt to create a norm‚ since the

how to control one’s heart rate. Before we started conducting our experiment‚ we hypothesized that fast tempo music increases heart rates while slower paced music would keep heart rate at a normal level. Method The method we used to test our hypothesis was rather simple. We first randomly selected ten people to be our subjects for the experiment. We then took their heart rate while they were in resting position. After the first testing‚ we let them listen one minute of classical music and recorded

According to Pozzulo‚ Bennel‚ and Forth‚ (2013) they also suggest the misinformation acceptance hypothesis (as stated in McCloskey & Zaragoza‚ 1985) which explains how a witness will give or guess the answer they think the experimenter wants to hear; this is also results in misinformation effect.
