Janiszewski and Uy (2008) conducted an experiment in which they had 43 participants read 10 scenarios. In this study, the researchers wanted to determine the impact of the scenario type on the anchoring and adjusting of participants. Anchoring and adjustment occurs when people use a starting point (anchor) as a basis to make judgments about a given scenario (adjustment). How many levels are there for the independent variable in this study?

10 levels

Explanation:

The study aimed at studying the effect of scenarios on anchoring and adjustment. The test scenarios are 10 and are the independent variables while anchoring and adjustments are the dependent variables.

Since the participants are subjected to reading 10 scenarios, the levels of the independent variables are 10. For example if i were to study the effect of 3 nitrogen levels on crop yields, the levels of the independent variable will be 3.

overview:

this is a technology-dependent lesson that students can guide at their own pace of exploration and learning. students share what they learn through the use of twitter (or alternative classroom sharing medium like todaysmeet). the use of a social sharing platform like twitter gives students a place for sharing with a wider audience, for more effective means of communication with each other, for incorporating viewpoints from all students in the classroom, and a means to reference thinking and learning by the use of a hashtag at a later time. students will understand the role the allied air forces played in the normandy invasion. teachers can use this as a stand-alone lesson or offer more structure by guiding students through each source, one by one. teachers may learn more about the eighth air force by accessing the abmc’s strategic bombing campaign interactive.
