<p>@caveat</p>
<p>I put that the independent variable was the feedback and that the dependent variable was the mean number of figures correctly identified.</p>
<p>@ronaldofan94, i put that!</p>
<p>^ I put the same thing, except I said that the IV was whether or not the participants received feedback (essentially same idea).</p>
<p>i want a 5 on this exam so badly ! :(</p>
<p>On the back of the essay when they ask for initials… I think I stupidly mixed them up in my exhaustion so that I put the first two letters of my first name and first letter of my last name. Will this delay/ effect my receiving scores? I still have my AP Number sticker on there, so I hope not. I didn’t get to ask my proctor because I didn’t realize it until I took the AP Lit today and realized my mistake.</p>
<p>^Probably not; AP number’s definitely the most important form of ID.</p>
<p>IV=Whether or not participants got feedback
DV=How many geometric figures were correctly ID’d.</p>
<p>I thought the independent was the type of figure displayed.</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure it was feedback.</p>
<p>@cavecat WHo was the “random psychologist”?</p>
<p>It was memory.</p>
<p>^Right, Ebbinghaus’s forgetting curve</p>
<p>I put that ^^</p>
<p>@princesssparkle - You probably won’t get the point for chunking, sorry. You don’t need to mention mnemonics because that is only one method of chunking, but you do need to mention that you are using some method of grouping the information together.</p>
<p>Here’s what Barron’s says about chunking:</p>
<p>“Our capacity in short-term memory is limited on average to around seven items, but this limit can be expanded through a process called chunking. If you want to remember a grocery list with 15 items on it, you should chunk, or group, the items into no more than seven groups. Most mnemonic devices, memory aids, are really examples of chunking.”</p>
<p>If you feel as though you discussed chunking in a similar light, you should be fine, but if you did not, then I wouldn’t expect the point.</p>
<p>@314159265 - Not sure why you repeated me saying virtually the same thing, but okay.</p>
<p>^Oops, sorry.</p>
<p>Sorry if I sounded rude! I wasn’t being hostile, just curious. Thanks for helping out!</p>
<p>BARRONS = 5 period :)</p>
<p>for encoding failure, i talked about selective attention and she could have been doing some else, so she never encoded the information she was reading. but then i mentioned that its similar to the cocktail party effect to sound smart and realized that its wrong. will i get points?</p>
<p>Potentially. If it isn’t seen as directly contradicting your other information or your answer, then you will lose a point. If it is merely seen as additional wrong information, you’ll be fine.</p>
<p>for encoding failure, i said that she might have memorized some things incorrectly, such as memorizing how to conjugate japanese verbs in the wrong way. is that enough?</p>
<p>I talked about the model of brain memory described in barrons. what was the answer to the james lange question, it asked about their model.</p>
