Does the genre of music affect the way students score on tests?

# data[].attributes.body
Our experimental units are fellow high school students, each student is in their senior year of high school.

# data[].attributes.body
The students were picked from random grade levels but all had to be in high school

# data[].attributes.body
There was 3 groups of students, each group had 100 students. One group of students listened to sad/mellow music. The second group listened to happy/upbeat music. The third group listened to a mix of everything. Each group will listen to this type of music for a hour before taking the test.

# data[].attributes.body
Our explanatory variable is what type of music the students listen to, sad or happy.

# data[].attributes.body
We will measure the students test scores at the end of the test to see if the type of music had any affect on their test performance.

# data[].attributes.body
We randomized the students we picked by choosing students from different grade levels. Lurking Variables may occur if the student listens to that type of music often or if the student becomes distracted by listening to music before the test.

The control group will be the group of students that listens to the mix of music.

# data[].attributes.body
The students in this experiment will not be blind, they will know which treatment they are receiving. We do not have double-blind because the researchers know what type of music they will be giving each student.

This has randomized block design because the students are picked randomly and they are selected from different grade levels and they are placed into three separate groups and we will measure the data rom each group and compare them.

This study was only tested on 300 students, this sample size is small compared to the amount of students in the school. Our margin of error is 5%, this is a small margin of error which shows that our results represent a good amount of the population

This graph represents a small amount of our results

# data[].attributes.body
Students who listen to happy/upbeat music have a better chance at scoring higher on tests than students who listen to sad/mellow music before tests

This study can be replicated in the future, with more students participating in the study more accurate results can be achieved. Replication can also be done but have different a different selection method, students from one grade level, only female students, or only male students.
