Virtual Psychology with Virtual Mr. D  __11F and 11D:__**
 * January 27th, 2010

Using the original version of the experiment you are replicating:

1. Describe the method of the experiment - in other words, write a brief summary of how the experiment is conducted. 2. Make a list of any materials you will use during the experiment - this list should include any directions you will read to the participants, as well as anything you need to conduct the experiment. 3. Write a hypothesis for what you expect your experiment to show. In other words, what will the results likely be and why?

That is it for virtual Wednesday - be sure to have this written out and bring it to class. I will collect it for a grade. Enjoy the rest of your day!

The independent variable is the color of the font and the dependent variable is the time it takes the subjects to read the words. The other independent variable is the number of mistakes the subject makes when they read the words.__
