28. A student notices that when a weight is hung on a spring, the spring stretches. She decides to conduct an experiment to dete

rmine the relationship between the amount of weight
placed on a spring and the distance the spring stretches. She has five different weights: 25 9,50 9.75 9. 100 9, and 125 g. She selects a weight, hangs it on the spring, and
measures how far the spring stretches
What is the independent variable in this experiment?
length of unst etched spring
distance the spring stretches
weight hung from the spring
O temperature of the spring

Answer:

C). weight hung from the spring

Explanation:

An Independent variable is characterized as the variable that is controlled or manipulated by the experimenter in order to observe its change on the dependent variable.

In the given experiment, 'weight hung from the spring' is the independent variable as it is manipulated by the researcher in order to witness its impact on the dependent variable(how the spring stretches). It is the cause that causes an effect on the dependent variable. Any change in the former directly affects the latter. Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.

Besides ethical considerations, what is another reason why Milgram’s experiment may be difficult to duplicate?
ki77a [65]
Last month, we featured IRB best practices (“IRBs: Navigating the Maze” November 2007 Observer), and got the ball rolling with strategies and tips that psychological scientists have found to work. Here, we continue the dissemination effort with the second of three articles by researchers who share their experiences with getting their research through IRB hoops. Jerry Burger from Santa Clara University managed to do the seemingly impossible — he conducted a partial replication of the infamous Milgram experiment. Read on for valuable advice, and look for similar coverage in upcoming Observers. These are the first words I said to Muriel Pearson, producer for ABC News’ Primetime, when she approached me with the idea of replicating Stanley Milgram’s famous obedience studies. Milgram’s work was conducted in the early 1960s before the current system of professional guidelines and IRBs was in place. It is often held up as the prototypic example of why we need policies to protect the welfare of research participants. Milgram’s participants were placed in an emotionally excruciating situation in which an experimenter instructed them to continue administering electric shocks to another individual despite hearing that person’s agonizing screams of protest. The studies ignited a debate about the ethical treatment of participants. And the research became, as I often told my students, the study that can never be replicated. Hope this helps!
