Not nervous at all, not because I'm confident :tongue: but because I've done many exams the nervousness has left me I guess

Usually once I've started getting into the questions I'm fine, it's just the build up haha

Is Yarmey's study enought to get 6 marks for A01 on age and EWT? Could you use Christiansen and Hubinette as an opposing research finding for A02?

Posted from TSR Mobile


For age use the study of Anastasia and Rhodes as a counter study for Yarmey.
And for anxiety use the study of deffenbacher and Christianson and Hubinette as a counter study. And then. For AO2 use Johnson and scott's study of the weapon focus effect and use the Loftus et al (studies further the eye movement that supports the weapon focus effect)

You could use the research by Takahashi 1990, describe the procedure, his findings and conclusions and then evaluate by talking about methodological and ethical issues?


:biggrin:

Ummm.... Methodological issues are like issues with the method of the experiment, for example if it is a lab experiment it will lack ecological validity etc...

Id go with 18 though I think there was a study that found otherwise, though overall it is seen to have a duration of up to 18 seconds

I think 0-18 seconds is wrong
You can say '30 seconds' 'less than 30 seconds' 'up to 30 seconds'
