- CThere are no implications associated with Bowman et al.’s (2010) article.
- DMultitasking is not an efficient way to complete tasks.
2Research strategies that examine relationships between variables by comparing two or more groups of scores include all of the following except:
- AQuasi-experimental
- BNon-experimental
- CCorrelational
- Dall of these strategies compare two or more groups of scores
3What is the main finding in the Bowman et al. (2010) article?
- AStudents who IMed while reading a passage took significantly longer to read the passage than students who did not IM while reading.
- BStudents who IMed while reading a passage performed significantly worse on a comprehension test than students who did not IM while reading.
- CStudents who IMed while reading a passage took significantly longer to read the passage and performed more poorly on a comprehension test of the passage than students who did not IM while reading.
- DThere was no difference in reading speed or comprehension test scores between students who IMed while reading and those who did not.
4 ___________ is a method used to control for extraneous variables where participants have an equal chance of being placed in the experimental or control group.
- ARandom assignment
- BRandom sampling
- CParticipant matching
- DInclusion of a no-treatment control group.

6Dr. Smith wants to test if age affects levels of physical activity in a sample with equal numbers of males and females. What is the dependent variable?
- Aphysical activity
- Bage
- CDr. Smith
- Dgender
7Which of the following statements about randomization is false
- ARandomization always guarantees that extraneous variables are controlled.
- BRandomization is used to help prevent an extraneous variable from becoming a confounding variable.
- CRandomization is more likely to be successful the larger the sample size.
- DRandomization has the benefit of controlling for many variables at once.
8Matching values across treatment conditions include which of the following?.
- Aensuring the average value on an extraneous variable is the same across treatment conditions.
- Bcounterbalancing treatment conditions over time.
- Call of the above.
- Dnone of the above.
9A third variable that changes systematically with the other two variables being studied is referred to as
- Aa confounding variable
- Ba constant
- Ca control variable
- Dan extraneous variable.
10What is the main hypothesis assessed in Bowman, Levine, Waite, and Gendron’s (2010) multitasking article?
- AStudents who IM while reading a passage will take longer to read the passage and perform more poorly on a comprehension test of the passage than students who do not IM while reading
- BThere will be no difference in reading speed or comprehension test scores between students who IM while reading and those who do not
- CStudents who IM while reading a passage will take longer to read the passage than students who do not IM while reading.
- DStudents who instant message (IM) while reading a passage will perform more poorly on a comprehension test of the passage than students who do not IM while reading.
