Advanced Placement (AP)

A researcher is interested in the effects of ambiguity and number of bystanders on helping behavior. Participants fill out a questionnaire in a room with zero or two other people who appear to be other subjects but are not. The experimenter distributes the questionnaire and then goes into the room next door. After 5 minutes there is a loud crash, possibly caused by the experimenter falling. For half of the participants, the experimenter unambiguously calls out that he has fallen, is hurt, and needs help. For the remaining participants, the situation is more ambiguous-the experimenter says nothing after the apparent fall. Twenty participants are tested in each condition, and the experimenter records how long it takes (in seconds) before a participant offers help. More seconds indicate longer response times. Determine if there are main effects and/or an interaction AND explain what those findings mean. Do not explain how you added or divided. Explain your result in words as if someone asked you if you had found main effects or an interaction (see the example provided with this week’s readings)
