THE THIRD-VARIABLE PROBLEM Correlational data are frequently misinterpreted‚ especially when presented by newspaper reporters‚ talk-show hosts‚ or television newscasters. The Most common problem in interpreting correlations is Third-Variable Problem. A correlation simply indicates that there is a weak‚ moderate‚ or strong relationship (either positive or negative)‚ or no relationship‚ between two variables. When interpreting a correlation‚ it is also important to remember that although the correlation

Identifying Dependent and Independent Variables Instructions: For each of the following research designs‚ identify the dependent and independent variables. 1. To investigate the effects of exercise on mathematical problem-solving ability‚ a researcher assigned subjects to one of two groups. One group did 50 jumping jacks and the other group did 200. After exercising‚ both groups did a set of math problems. 2. A researcher hypothesized that talking to plants enhances their growth. To test her hypothesis

Variable Geometry Turbocharger Turbochargers works on the simple principle of increasing the intake air density by compression. Being able to fill more air into the combustion chamber will allow more fuel to be added to produce more power. However the operation of the turbocharger relies solely on the exhaust gas velocity to drive the compressor. Thus the compressor will be at optimum operation range when the engine is under heavy load. When the throttle is opened‚ it will take a certain period

paper helicopter affects the time it takes to travel a fixed distance Aim: Does the mass of an object affect the time it takes to travel a fixed distance? Introduction: This is an experiment to find out the relationships between mass‚ distance‚ velocity and time. Dependent Variable: The height where the helicopter is dropped from. Independent Variable: The velocity of the helicopter‚ the time it takes for the helicopter to travel down the fixed height and the mass of the objects on the end of the
