The Hawthorne effect is when people behave differently because they know they are part of an experiment. This could also affect the results of a study on office productivity because if you are doing a study on how people in an office are working‚ they will change the way they usually would work which would make the study not correct. Sociologists make sure that when they are doing experiments‚ the subjects did not know that that they were being studied and make sure that the Hawthorne effect

process of distillation. Distillation is the separation of volatile substances mixed with nonvolatile substances by boiling the mixture to alter the phase of the volatile substance. The researchers used the simple distillation set up to conduct the experiment. 25 ml of The Bar Vodka was used and 7 ml of distillate was collected before a temperature of 95 degrees Celsius was reached. Collected distillate was then subjected to a flammability test to confirm ethanol content. The percent ethanol was computed

Part I - Illumination Experiments (1924-27) These experiments were performed to find out the effect of different levels of illumination (lighting) on productivity of labour. The brightness of the light was increased and decreased to find out the effect on the productivity of the test group. Surprisingly‚ the productivity increased even when the level of illumination was decreased. It was concluded that factors other than light were also important.

Period G Interspecific and Intraspecific Plant Competition Abstract A study was conducted to address the problem of interspecific and intraspecific competition among wheat and mustard plants. It was hypothesized that increasing the plant density‚ and therefore increasing intraspecific competition‚ would negatively impact the plant biomass. It was also hypothesized that interspecific competition would have a stronger negative effect on the plant biomasses. This was tested by planting varying
