Your assignment is to design a small-group laboratory experiment that would test the following hypothesis using any true experimental design (do not use a quasi-experimental design):

• People behave more aggressively when drinking alcohol than when sober.

Note: Be sure to devise a laboratory experiment. Also,DO NOT GO OUT AND ACTUALLY CONDUCT THE EXPERIMENT. This assignment only involves experimental design.

1. Describe exactly where and how you would select the participants for the study.How many would you select? Why?
2. Describe the experimental and control groups appropriate to the experiment. Describe how you would assign the participants to the experimental and control groups.
3. Identify your dependent variable and describe how it will be operationalized in the study.
4. Lay out a detailed description of your experimental design. Explain, step by step, EXACTLY how the experiment would be done. This should be detailed enough that if you gave the steps to 20 different people, all 20 of them would perform the exact same experiment!!
5. Describe two potential sources of internal invalidity that your design reduces or avoids.Explain why or how your design does that.
6. Describe one potential source of external invalidity that your design reduces or avoids.Explain why or how your design does that.
