There is a Frisbee Golf course in the local park. Eight friends compete against each other and there is a ‘ladder’ to indicate how well they are doing, updated at the end of each day. Any player can challenge any other player to a game, and if the person lower in the ladder wins, then they move up the ladder to the place directly above the person they have beaten. On Tuesday, Eric was at the bottom of the ladder, but after beating Faith in the only game on Wednesday he moved up to fifth place.

On Thursday there were four games. Beth had a bad day and was beaten by both Dave and Eric. Faith beat Dave, and Hattie beat Faith. At the end of Thursday the results were entered into the ladder, with the game that finished first being entered first and so on.

What is the highest possible position in the ladder that Faith could be in after the results were entered?

Study published in the journal of personality and individual differences found that adults with adhd displayed more creative achievement than those who didn't have the disorder. "for the same reason that adhd might create problems, like distraction, it can also allow an openness to new ideas," says holly white, assistant professor of cognitive psychology. "not being completely focused on a task lets the mind make associations that might not have happened otherwise." white and priti shah at the university of michigan gave 60 college students – half of them with adhd – a series of tests measuring creativity across 10 domains. the adhd group scored higher across the board. the adhd group showed more of a preference for brainstorming and generating ideas than the non-adhd group, which preferred refining and clarifying ideas. the adhd status of the participants was established by asking whether the individual had ever been clinically diagnosed with adhd/add. the tests of creativity were pencil-and-paper tasks administered in a laboratory setting. each of the ten scales was comprised of multiple questions, the scores on which were summed (e.g., writing creativity: "how many words can you make from the letters in the word 'psychology' invention creativity: "write down as many uses for a paper clip that you can think of.") this procedure does allow for a participant to be scored as showing no creativity under these conditions. a) state the research question in plain language (i wonder if is related to (1 point) b) state the null hypothesis (1 point) c) state the research hypothesis (1 point) d) is the research hypothesis directional or non-directional (1 point) e) name the predictor / independent variable f) give the operational definition of the predictor / independent variable g) evaluate the construct validity of the predictor / independent variable.
