You are working for a scientific research group who has just been asked to conduct an objective experiment for small natural foods company. They have developed a pill which claims to improve short term memory and sharpens mental alertness with no side effects. The natural ingredients include guarana, gota kola and fish oil as active agents. The research should test the effectiveness of new all natural pill and scientifically prove that this new product is safe and effective. Your company hopes to target young High school and college students who have semester and final exams.
Describe the elements of your experiment in short descriptive paragraphs and identify which method research you will use.
Identify the following in your research
Hypothesis: I don’t think the pill will work, I think that the students who take the pill will function at the same level as they normally do.
population : 500 12th graders and 500 College Freshman.
sample: 50 students from each of those two grade
independent and dependent variables: independent variable: the students who didn’t take the pill. And the Dependent are the people who did take the pill
control and experimental groups in experiment : the control would be those who didn’t take the pill and the experimental group are those who did take the pill.
My research method will be sampling.
