An advertising agency has been hired by a manufacturer of pens to develop an advertising
campaign for the upcoming holiday season. To prepare for this project, the research director
decides to initiate a study of the effect of advertising on product perception. An experiment
is designed to compare five different advertisements.

Advertisement A: greatly undersells the pen's characteristics.
Advertisement B: slightly undersells the pen's characteristics.
Advertisement C: slightly oversells the pen's characteristics.
Advertisement D: greatly oversells the pen's characteristics.
Advertisement E: attempts to correctly stat the pen's characteristics.
A sample of 25 adults respondents, taken from a larger focus group, is randomly assigned to
the five advertisements (so that there are five respondents to each). After reading the
advertisement and developing a sense of "product expectation," all respondents
unknowingly receive the same pen to evaluate. The respondents are permitted to test…

- please answer quicklyarrow_forwardThe store manager of a local independent grocery store thought customers might stay in the store longer if slow, easy-to-listen to music were played over the store’s intercom system. After some thought, the manager considered whether he should hire a marketing researcher to design an experiment to test the influence of music tempo on shoppers’ behaviors. Answer the following questions: How would you operationalize the independent variable? What dependent variables do you think might be important in this experiment? Develop a hypothesis for each of your dependent variables.arrow_forwardStephens, atkins, and Kingston, 2009 conducted an experiment in which participants were able to tolerate moore pain when they were shouting their favorite swear word than when they were shouting neutral words, Identify the dependent and independent variables for this studyarrow_forward
- A researcher conducts an independent-measures study examining how the brain chemical serotonin is related to aggression. One sample of rats serves as a control group and receives a placebo that does not affect normal levels of serotonin. A second sample of rats receives a drug that lowers brain levels of serotonin. Then the researcher tests the animals by recording the number of aggressive responses each of the rats display. The data are as follows. Control Low Serotonin n = 15 n = 20 M = 18 M = 22 SS = 172.5 SS = 135.0 a. What research design was used to answer this question? b. What was the scale of measurement for the dependent variable? c. What was the scale of measurement for the independent variable? d. Does the drug have a significant effect on aggression? Use an alpha level of .05, two tails. e.

They were particularly interested in the effects of eye-to-eye contact and smiling. They collected data from 20 participants. Each participant was asked to wait in a small room while the experimenter went next door, ostensibly to gather the materials needed for the study. While the participant was waiting, a confederate of the experimenter entered the room and sat in a chair facing the participant, and asked "Are you waiting for the experiment?". Immediately after asking the question, the confederate smiled at, and/or looked directly into the eyes of, the participant. This was done in four conditions: for five participants the confederate smiled and looked into the participant's eye, for five participants the confederate smiled but did not look into the participant's eye, for five participants the confederate did not smile but did look into the participant's eyes, and for five…arrow_forwardThe data provided in the table below comes from a study in which a researcher wanted to determine if the emotion elicited by different pictures would significantly impact the number of images remembered. The researcher randomly assigned subjects into one of three different groups. One group viewed a series of negative images, another group viewed a series of neutral images and the final group viewed a series of positive images. Did the emotion of the image make a significant difference in the number of images recalled? The data you will need to test the hypothesis are in the tablebelow: Negative Image Group Neutral Image Group Positive Image Group Recall Score Deviation Squared Dev Recall Score Deviation Squared Dev Recall Score Deviation Squared Dev 19 10 14 24 6 11 25 3 18 15 8 9 20 2…arrow_forward

Use the image for question 10. 10. A hair stylist used market research to learn that members of different age groups have different preferences for positive and negative advertisements. Research participants could mark their preference for only one of the two ads. The positive ad presented a model with attractive hair supported by a message affirming the decision to schedule hair styling services, whereas the negative ad displayed a model with unattractive hair supported by a message describing the need for hair styling services. Results are shown in the table below: What is the probability of a site visitor either preferring negative ads or being a member of age category B? 6% 62% 56% 68% 93% 11. A hair stylist averaged 21 clients per day over the past several months. Typically four of these clients have been male. What is the probability for the total number of female clients the hair stylist can expect…arrow_forwardIt has been suggested that pupil size increases during emotional arousal. A researcher would, therefore, like to see whether the increase in pupil size is a function of the type of arousal (pleasant versus aversive). A random sample of five participants is selected for the study. Each participant views all three stimuli: neutral, pleasant, and aversive photographs. The neutral photograph portrays a plain brick building. The pleasant photograph consists of a young man and woman sharing a large ice cream cone. Finally, the aversive stimulus is a graphic photograph of an automobile accident. Upon viewing each stimulus, the pupil size is measured (in millimeters) with sophisticated equipment. The data are as follows. Use it to test whether pupil size varies based on type of arousal. Stimulus Participant Neutral Pleasant Aversive A 4 8 3 B 3 6 3 C 2…arrow_forward
- A researcher records time spent watching television and overall academic performance for a random sample of 200 year 9 high school students. She finds a significant negative relationship between these two variables. Which of the following conclusions could be drawn, based on this information. Year 9 students could improve their academic performance by watching less television. Watching more television causes a deterioration in academic performance of year 9 students Year 9 students who watch more television tend to have a better academic performance. Year 9 high school students who watch less television tend to have better academic performancearrow_forwardA mail-order catalog firm would like to test the effect of the size of a magazine advertisement and the advertisement design on the number of catalog requests received (data in thousands). Three advertising designs and two different size advertisements were considered. The data obtained follow. At the 0.05 level of significance, a. Is there an interaction between type of design and size of advertisement? b. Is there an effect due to type of design? c. Is there an effect due to size of advertisement?arrow_forwardSuppose that, as part of a research methods class, Bailey was asked to write a summary of a research paper on the topic of the effects of visitor traffic on the relative humidity in bat caves. Identify the explanatory and the response variables. The number of visitors and the relative humidity are the response variables. The number of visitors is the response variable, and the relative humidity is the explanatory variable. The number of visitors and the relative humidity are the explanatory variables.
