Answer:
c) Yes, because subjects in both experimental groups has slower reaction times than subjects in the control group.
Although Dr. Fitz's experiment is correct, he could improve it by placing men and women in the experimental and control groups.
Explanation:
The control group in an experiment, is the group that does not receive the treatment that is being tested in that study. Therefore, this group must present different results from the experimental groups that received the treatment that is being tested.
In the experiment shown above, the control group is formed by the ladies who did not receive any dose of alcohol and therefore had a faster reaction time than the individuals who formed the experimental groups (who received alcoholic drinks)
To make the experiment more accurate, Dr. Fitz should have formed all groups with men and women, since he could show whether the effect of alcohol is the same or different in relation to gender.
Social Learning Theory
Social Learning Theory is the theory that children, as they grow older, learn gender-linked behaviors through observation and direction of their parents, teachers, and peers.
For example, if a young boy was found crying, and his peers made fun of his for crying by saying that "only girls cry," then he would learn that behavior. In this case, social learning theory explains that he is learning gender-linked behavior through his peers' instruction.
