The Effect of Stimulus Type on Memory Span in a Repeated-Measures Working Memory Task
You will write a comprehensive, 2000-word report on one of the Live Cognition Lab experiments. Comprehensive details, along with results and statistical analyses, will be provided in separate documents on the LMS. Use of Generative Artificial Intelligence tools during this assessment is allowed. Need your assistance as always to deliver an A-star lab report write-up. The documents will be attached on the subsequent uploads.
Lab Report Analyses - choose only 10 references, journal articles, recent years - Methods - follow exactly as the lab report analyses - Subjects, how many (88), and they are from “on campus murdoch psych undergraduates”, “no demographic data were collected” D (6.03), L (5.57), W (3.78), Stimulus type (D,L,W), F(2,174) = 158.29, p < 0.001 All Bonferroni pairwise comparisons were significant - Bar chart, can use jasp, excel, or draw on paper, no need apa format, for bar chart, just have labels for the chart - “There is a significant difference in the stimulus type.” No need so detailed hypothesis, or maybe “digits higher than letters than words”
Lab Report Writing - 2000 words, minus references, 1800 words ish enough alr - Methods, results, references would have plagiarism, intro, discussion shouldn't, where most of the marks are - interference theory, why info in mind is forgotten, something kicks it out, retroactive interference, hence we forget - Proactive interference - info before interferes with current info, due to similarity in content, to reduce, study two content-different subjects consecutively, cannot be used as explanation for the lab report
Intro, Lit Review - first para general, second onwards specific, Dont spend so much time on what is memory, should tell what we doing, everything and anything about the hypothesis, or things that is going to be discussed in the discussion
Then: Methods, results discussion and then references
