Willa conducted a study on the effects of violent television viewing on choice of
playground activity. Her data indicated no support for her research hypothesis
that those children that watched violent television played more aggressively on
the playground. Interestingly, however, although not related to her hypothesis,
she found that children who watched violent television played on the playground
for a shorter amount of time when compared to children who did not watch
violent television. How should Willa address this finding?
a. Change her hypothesis statements to include a hypothesis about duration of
playground activity.
b. Add the analysis to the results section and discuss the finding in the
conclusions and recommendations section.
c. Rewrite the research problem to include duration of play as a variable of
interest in the study.
d. Address the finding in the discussion section and
suggest future work that addresses duration of play as a variable.
