Research Methods and Statistics The article that I am using for this assignment is “Frenda, S. J., Patihis, L., Loftus, E. F., Lewis, H. C., & Fenn, K. M. (2014). Sleep deprivation and false memories. Psychological Science, 25(9), 1674-1681". The research questions present in the study are: 1. What factors investigated lead to the susceptibility of false memories? 2. What is the role of sleep deprivation in the formation of false memories? 3. What is the relationship between self-reported sleep duration and false memories in a 24-hour sleep cycle? 4. Can sleep deprivation lead to the loss of false memories regardless of short or long- term effects? Null hypothesis  False memories are not a result of adverse sleep patterns or sleep deprivation.  Misinformation often leads to the introduction of adverse sleep patterns. Alternative hypothesis  The lack of sleep often leads to false memories.  The lack of information means that patients need to know what they suffer from de- spite a diagnosis. Independent variable  Sleep Dependent variable  Time taken to sleep 2

Methods A multisession study method is used. One hundred ninety-three students (cruel age = 20.3 a long time, SD = 3.5; 76 , male, 24% male) at the College of California, Irvine, completed a battery of identity measures and cognitive assignments for course credit ( Frenda et al., 2014 ). Methods pertinent to the current ponder are depicted here. Members completed a survey that included a section portraying the plane crash in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, on September 11, 2001, and claiming that video film of the crash had been broadly seen on the news and the Web (in spite of the fact that pictures of the consequence were broadly accessible, the crash was not captured on video). The essential thing of the survey was to inquire participants whether they had seen "video film of the plane slamming, taken by one of the witnesses on the ground." Members reacted by selecting "yes" or "no." ( Frenda et al., 2014 ). Prior to questioning, inquire about staff conducted brief, audio-recorded interviews to test participants' memory for the film. Basically, questioners rehashed the proposal that a video of the crash had been broadly seen and asked members to show verbally whether or not they had seen the film (for points of interest on coding, see the Supplemental Fabric accessible online). Experimental Design The study is an experimental design. Participants or Mixed Design It was a mixed-design experiment involving one hundred ninety-three undergraduates with a mean age of 20.3 years. Statistical Analysis The author used a descriptive type of statistical analysis. The authors conducted a post-hoc test, and their choice of reporting was appropriate. Results 3

Rest hardship shows up to be progressively predominant, and it impedes execution across a broad run of cognitive errands. It moderates response time and diminishes working memory capacity, meddling with regular learning and turning off executive work. In this way, sleep hardship might increment untrue memories. However, considering examining rest, hardship and wrong memory have appeared blended comes about when investigating the issue. Interpretation The evidence recommending that rest hardship contributes to the arrangement of wrong recollections needs to be revised and consistent. Moreover, most of the inquiry on his subject has been conducted utilizing DRM strategies. For all intents and purposes, no inquiry has explored whether rest hardship increments defenselessness to untrue recollections for wealthier, real-world stimuli. The graphs are appropriate as they are synonymous with the descriptive results. The conclusion is that each sleeping disorder is unique and is caused by various conditions or circumstances. Quality of Methods The conclusions fit together well. There can be better ways to ask the research questions. The study had no significant limitations. I would not do anything different in the study. ` Reference 4
