All participants are offered $50 for volunteering their time. ]]> 2018-04-13 17:00:22 UTC https://padlet.com/kcmar452/qj9yzmicyx2a/wish/251647869 kcmar452 https://padlet.com/kcmar452/qj9yzmicyx2a/wish/251648721 Our experimental units were found at doctor offices around the east coast. Emails were individually sent to each patient to find who suffers from this. The emails contained information on the volunteer process and their compensation for doing so. ]]> 2018-04-13 17:02:22 UTC https://padlet.com/kcmar452/qj9yzmicyx2a/wish/251648721 kcmar452 https://padlet.com/kcmar452/qj9yzmicyx2a/wish/251678974 There will be 6 groups in the experiment. 50 people will be given non-medicated ice cream once a day, another 50 will receive non-medicated ice cream 3 times a day and another 50 will be given non-medicated ice cream 5 times a day. These 3 groups will be repeated again but with medicated ice cream. ]]> 2018-04-13 18:07:38 UTC https://padlet.com/kcmar452/qj9yzmicyx2a/wish/251678974 kcmar452 https://padlet.com/kcmar452/qj9yzmicyx2a/wish/251681787 The explanatory variable will be the medicated ice cream that soothes the frequent sore throats. The ice cream comes in the same type of tubes as other normal ice cream does but in it was put on the market it would be labeled correctly. ]]> 2018-04-13 18:13:30 UTC https://padlet.com/kcmar452/qj9yzmicyx2a/wish/251681787 kcmar452 https://padlet.com/kcmar452/qj9yzmicyx2a/wish/251683287 At the end of 5 days we ask the participants to rate their pain on a chart from 1-10]]> 2018-04-13 18:16:48 UTC https://padlet.com/kcmar452/qj9yzmicyx2a/wish/251683287 kcmar452 https://padlet.com/kcmar452/qj9yzmicyx2a/wish/251683765 When receiving 400 applicants, we used the Simple random sampling to choose 300 to be part of the study.

Having to pay each participant $50 for being involved came to be $15,000. To pay our employees at minimum wage ($10.05) we spent roughly 2,800.]]> 2018-04-13 19:43:38 UTC https://padlet.com/kcmar452/qj9yzmicyx2a/wish/251715617 kcmar452 https://padlet.com/kcmar452/qj9yzmicyx2a/wish/251716694 Our study and experiment was used in multiple science texts.
