PSY 3211 Research Methods and Design I-Discussion #11- How Fast?
Instructions: In 1974, Loftus and Palmer conducted a classic study demonstrating how the
language used to ask a question can influence eyewitness memory. In the study, college students
watched a film of an automobile accident and then were asked questions about what they saw.
One group was asked, "About how fast were the cars going when they smashed into each other?"
Another group was asked the same question except the verb was changed to "hit" instead of
"smashed into." The "smashed into" group reported significantly higher estimates of speed than
the "hit" group. You, as a researcher wonder if Loftus and Palmer's study is reliable and repeats
