Question:

Consider each of the following research outcomes. If you were a part of the research team, 

(a) What might you suggest as the next study to do, 

(b) What do you predict would happen (i.e., what would the hypothesis be)?

1. College students are shown a video of a male college‐age student driving an expensive car while talking on a cell phone. Asked to give their impressions of the driver, the students rate him high on the following attributes: egotistical, extroverted, and unconcerned for others.

2. In a study of aggression, some preschool boys see cartoons with violent themes, while other boys see interesting but nonviolent cartoons. Later, given a chance to be aggressive, children in the first group hit a punching bag more frequently and with greater force than children in the second group.

3. In a direction‐finding study that takes place at a central point on campus, college students are asked to point as accurately as they can in the direction of four major cities, two of them more than 200 miles from campus and two less than 20 miles from campus. The students are more accurate for the closer cities.

4. In a memory experiment in which a list of 30 words is to be memorized, college students recall more words if they study while listening to a violin concerto than when they listen to bluegrass.
