After we split the ID groups into male and female we will have a random number generator pick 150 male student IDs and 150 female student IDs ]]> 2018-04-12 15:31:26 UTC https://padlet.com/kjbri131/1stitvi6ictr/wish/251207727 kjbri131 https://padlet.com/kjbri131/1stitvi6ictr/wish/251215589 We will have 75 males and 75 females, a total of 150 students, listening to music while taking the test. The other 150 male and females will take the test normally and not listen to any music during the study.]]> 2018-04-12 15:45:01 UTC https://padlet.com/kjbri131/1stitvi6ictr/wish/251215589 kjbri131 https://padlet.com/kjbri131/1stitvi6ictr/wish/251219303 Our explanantory variable was whether the test subjects would listen to music during the test or not ]]> 2018-04-12 15:51:10 UTC https://padlet.com/kjbri131/1stitvi6ictr/wish/251219303 kjbri131 https://padlet.com/kjbri131/1stitvi6ictr/wish/251219674 Our responce vairiable would be the results of the testing and to see if the scores of the music listeners matched up with the scores of the testers who tested in complete silence ]]> 2018-04-12 15:51:48 UTC https://padlet.com/kjbri131/1stitvi6ictr/wish/251219674 kjbri131 https://padlet.com/kjbri131/1stitvi6ictr/wish/251219797 Our randomization process is to randomly select 150 male student ids to be split for testing, same goes for the female side, we will select 150 female student ids and split them for testing also. A lurking variable we could face would be intelligence and having to many intelligent people in one group so it could skew the data and make it inaccurate ]]> 2018-04-12 15:52:03 UTC https://padlet.com/kjbri131/1stitvi6ictr/wish/251219797 kjbri131 https://padlet.com/kjbri131/1stitvi6ictr/wish/251220077 Our control group is the half that is taking the test without music playing.

I took it and it wasn’t difficult. 
Volunteer #2- When I was handed the test it seemed like it was going to be an easy test but when I was told I’d be listening to music I was pretty surprised at the fact that it was harder to concentrate on the test while listening to music ]]> 2018-04-23 15:52:19 UTC https://padlet.com/kjbri131/1stitvi6ictr/wish/254466754 kjbri131 https://padlet.com/kjbri131/1stitvi6ictr/wish/254473969 The statistical significance in our data was that 80.3 % was the average score of the testers that were listening to music while 88.2% was the average score of the testers that did not listen to music. The difference between the two is 7.9%. Our random sample scored a 81% and the random sample was listening to music during the test.
