On several occasions, Edward is severely beaten by his alcoholic father. Before long, Edward begins to shake whenever his father approaches.

a. Explain this situation in terms of classical conditioning, identifying the UCS, UCR, CS, and CR.

Assignment 1

Study Details
46 students at a university took part in the study. Participants were asked to complete an online survey about their facebook use. There were 3 questionnaires within the survey, measuring their levels of facebook use (facebook intensity), their perceived bonding and bridging social capital. Scores for each of these scales are calculated by calculating a mean score for each scale (i.e. scores on the items in the scale divided by number of items in the scale). The items in each of the scale and the columns to which they refer in the data are included in the Assessment 1 folder.

Analysis Task
Your task is to analyse the data (data_assessment1.csv) in R to research the following two hypotheses:

H1: Intensity of Facebook use is statistically significantly associated with peoples perceived bonding social capital

H2: Intensity of Facebook use is statistically significantly associated with peoples perceived bridging social capital

This analysis should include you conducting appropriate data cleaning and reverse scoring of the items, desrptive statistics, graph generation and inferential statistical analysis.

Analysis Hints
Id22 does not use Facebook. Should you remove this row?

bonding_3 and bonding_9 are not the same polarity as the other items. We need to reverse those scores e.g. make a score of 5 into 1; 4 into 2 etc. You can do this with a simple calculation

Making scores for each of the questionnaire scales can be done by creating a mean of the scores from the relevant columns for each participant

What needs to be handed in
You need to hand in one pdf or .docx document that includes:

1) A Results and Discussion section for the analysis. The Results section should focus on the desrptive statistics and reporting the findings to APA conventions. The discussion should focus on summarising the results, highlighting the limitations and generating ideas for possible future work (these may come from extra reading around the topic) (max 1000 words). Students should familiarise themselves with Results and Discussion sections in research papers as a guide as well as looking at Lecture 2.

2) Your R srpt. This should include comments explaining the code at each stage.

View this interactive discussion scenario and answer the question(s) posed at the end of the presentation. The video link includes a notes tab which provides the transrpt to the video.

Write a research paper on how 4-5 presidents have either abused there power or broke laws in American History. Discuss how the public reacted to there violations and how they were penalized or how they got away with these violations.You can also mention times where presidents didnt break the laws or abuse powers but they still received backlash. Mention things like, Watergate, Iran gate, etc.

The purpose of this discussion is to infer a level of certainty by computing confidence level estimates for the clinical trial of a drug.

At the end of Chapter 6 in the Sullivan text, Practice Problems 2 and 3 ask you to apply measures of confidence level to determine the range of effectiveness of an experimental drug intended to lower blood pressure.

Do the computations needed to answer both questions. Use the instructions in Chapter 6 of the online workbook for guidance in completing the computations in Microsoft Excel.
Imagine that you are a public health official at a press conference, introducing this experimental drug to the public. In 500 words or less, describe how you would explain your conclusions about the effectiveness of the drug, based on the results of your computations.
Attach your Excel file with the computations to your initial post.
