Every junior and senior was given a handout asking if they would like to participate. Every participant had their previous GPA scores looked at in order to see if they fall on the GPA scale of 2.0 or better.]]> 2018-04-12 15:31:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mjhar876/rhk0w5kja0lt/wish/251207716 mjhar876 https://padlet.com/mjhar876/rhk0w5kja0lt/wish/251210599 We had 250 students from a high school sign up to participate in the expirement of seeing if sleep effects test scores. We had 5 groups of students who were completely randomized and assigned them different amounts of time for sleeping. One group got 2 hours, another got 4 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours, and 10 hours of sleep. Each group consisted of 50 students.]]> 2018-04-12 15:36:23 UTC https://padlet.com/mjhar876/rhk0w5kja0lt/wish/251210599 mjhar876 https://padlet.com/mjhar876/rhk0w5kja0lt/wish/251217073 Whether the student was in the 2, 4, 6, 8, or 10 hour sleep group and what their GPA is after the semester is over.]]> 2018-04-12 15:47:33 UTC https://padlet.com/mjhar876/rhk0w5kja0lt/wish/251217073 mjhar876 https://padlet.com/mjhar876/rhk0w5kja0lt/wish/251236774 At the end of the semster we looked at each students GPA and compared it to there’s previous scores before their sleep was monitored.

Along with whatever courses they are taking could ramp up in difficulty level. All of that plus people’s schedules can’t always be garunteed, they may need to get up earlier or can’t sleep at night.]]> 2018-04-16 14:52:08 UTC https://padlet.com/mjhar876/rhk0w5kja0lt/wish/252179012 mjhar876 https://padlet.com/mjhar876/rhk0w5kja0lt/wish/252183907 The suggested amount of sleep for people between 18-25 is 7 to 9 hours.

They’re a total of 25 researchers in on this project. All agreed to be paid a flat amount after the expirement was finished. The amount totaled to $1,500 to each researcher. The student all agreed to do the expirement in exchange for their grades being excused for the semester.
