In a cognitive psychology class a group of student prisoners wanted to demonstrate the power of retrieval cues. First the presenters had the class memorize a list of 20 words that were read aloud to them in a random order. One minute later the class members wrote down as many words as I could remember. On average the class recalled six words. Second the presenters told the class to try sorting out the words into categories as the words were red color words vehicle words and sports words. The presenter shred the same words again in a different brand of water on the second test of recall the classroom in route on average 14 words.
The presenters told the class this experiment demonstrated that categorizing helps people remember words because of the connections they can develop between various words
Identify the independent And Dependant variable
Answer:
Independent Variable: the use of categorization strategy.
Dependent Variable: the memory rate
Explanation:
The independent variable is term in a research study, that is defined as the factor that the researcher purposely change or control in order to see what changes it has.
In other words, independent variables are the variables that the researcher changes to test their dependent variable.
While the dependent variables is a term in experimental study that is defined as variable under study or being measured in the experiment.
In other words, dependent variable is what changes as a result of the changes to the independent variable. It is sometimes referred to as responding variable.
Hence, in this case, Independent Variable is "the use of categorization strategy" while Dependent Variable is "the memory rate."
The dependent variable (memory rate) depends on the independent variable (the use of categorization strategy).
Answer: long-term process involving a change in responsibilities/duties
Explanation:
The elimination of the position of Texas State Treasurer apart from being the dynamics of the election between the last State Treasurer, Martha Whitehead and Republican opponent David Hartman in 1994, it was also as a result of a long-term process involving a change in the duties of the state Treasurer.
Overtime, the office of the State Treasurer became redundant as the duties and responsibilities of the Treasurer were carried out by the office of Comptroller of public account. Thus there was no more need for the position.
Martha Whitehead who ran for office in 1994 promised to abolish the office if she won and she did.
In 1995, legislation was passed to scrap the office.
