Question

In a study of the relationship between socioeconomic class and unethical behavior, 129 University of California undergraduates at Berkeley were asked to identify themselves as having low or high social class by comparing themselves to others with the most (least) money, most (least) education, and most (least) respected jobs. They were also presented with a jar of individually wrapped candies and informed that the candies were for children in a nearby laboratory, but that they could take some if they wanted. After completing some unrelated tasks, participants reported the number of candies they had taken. It was found that those who were identified as upper-class took more candy than others. For the study, identify:
a. the cases
b. The variables, and their types
c. the main research question

Answer 1

Answer:

Establishing casual relationship

Population of interest : University of California undergraduates

Sample size : 129 university of California undergraduates

Generalized to population : It depends if the 129 students where picked randomly within the school i.e. considering the fat that every individual represents a certain culture present in the school's population

How to establish Relationship between socioeconomic class and unethical behavior

Step-by-step explanation:

A)The cases

Establishing casual relationship

Population of interest : University of California undergraduates

B) The variables and types

Sample size : 129 university of California undergraduates

Generalized to population : It depends if the 129 students where picked randomly within the school i.e. considering the fat that every individual represents a certain culture present in the school's population

C) The main research question

How to establish Relationship between socioeconomic class and unethical behavior

conclusion : This cannot be used to establish casual relationship because it is a randomized experiment
