As there is a growing concern about alcohol-related problems on college campuses, a team of researchers was interested in studying students’ perceptions about alcohol consumption—more specifically, in how students define a “drink” (White et al, 2004).
These researchers were interested in seeing whether the size of a cup influences how much beer students will pour into the cup. In their study students poured what they believed were 12 ounces of beer into one of three cups of different sizes (16, 24, or 32 ounces). They hypothesized that the larger the cup, the more beer students would pour. The results of their analyses are presented below:
a. 4.32
b. 4.30
c. 4.26
d. 4.17
d. 4.17
