    Study Notes

    Research Study Design: Memory Performance Supplement

    • The study aims to test the effectiveness of a new memory performance supplement on primate subjects.
    • The dependent variable is the number of pictures correctly identified by the subjects.

    Study Design and Procedure

    • The study uses a 2 x 2 factorial design with different participants in each cell.
    • The 60 subject primates are divided by gender: 30 males and 30 females.
    • Each gender group is further divided in half and randomly assigned to one of two treatment conditions:
      • 10 mg dose of the supplement
      • 25 mg dose of the supplement

    Independent Variables

    • Gender (male/female)
    • Dose of supplement (10 mg/25 mg)

    Factorial ANOVA Design

    • Two independent variables are crossed to create four treatment combinations:
      • Male, 10 mg dose
      • Male, 25 mg dose
      • Female, 10 mg dose
      • Female, 25 mg dose
