List-method directed forgetting with semantic related words
1500 words
- What is directed forgetting?
- Why is it important
- Explain the typical pattern of result
- Introduce your extra factor
- How is this extra factor expected to affect Directed Forgetting performance
- State your hypotheses clearly and the direction of the result
- Using the same hypotheses from the ppt
o List 1 and 2 different + remember and forget different
Method
Explain what you did clearly:
- Describe
- IV : remember and forget
- DV : number of word recall
- Explain the different conditions clearly
- Include a figure of the paradigm
Result
explain the sig. result clearly
o report your main effect and say what it means
o report your interactions and say what it means
? Performance between list 1&2 is different
o explain your interaction clearly
? eg. Subject report more item on list …….
? Use a pair test
o include correctly formatted figures of the result
o include figure legends that explain the data
our result:
ALL Data need and the Graph made is in the excel file "Graph"
Please add the graph in the report with figure legend
Mean age : 20.73 18-23 range ? total 30
First :
- 2x2 mix ANOVA
- Interaction ? sig. ? F(1,28) = 11.987; p = 0.002 n = 0.3
- 2 Main effect ? not sig.
o List ? list 1, 2 ? not sig. F(1, 28) = 0.47; p = 0.83
o Between group ? remember and forget not sig. F(1, 28) = 1.187; p = 0.285
Then:
Remember condition ? Paired t-test between list 1 and 2 of remember condition ? sig. ? t(14) = -2.747 ; p = 0.016
Forget ? Paired t-test between list 1 and 2 of forget condition ? sig. ? t(14) = 2.185; p = 0.046
Please use APA method
Please put all the spss output from the 2 word files “SPSS……”in the appendix at the end of the report
