An industrial psychologist tests three different keyboard designs for a new computer to determine which one produces optimal performance. Four computer operators are given text material and told to type it as fast as they can. They spend 3 minutes on each keyboard with a 10-minute rest between each keyboard. The number of errors committed are recorded. The researcher wants to know if there is a significant difference in errors among the three types of keyboards (called Keyboard A, Keyboard B, and Keyboard C). The one-way, repeated-measures ANOVA revealed that there was a significant difference in number of errors made based on the type of keyboard being used, F(2, 38) = 6.91, p = .003, ?p2 = 0.267. Bonferroni-corrected multiple comparisons revealed that more mistakes were made with Keyboard C (M = 6.00, SD = 2.18) than with Keyboard B (M = 4.00, SD = 2.05), p < .01. There was no difference between Keyboard A (M = 5.00, SD = 2.16) and Keyboard B, p = .59 or between Keyboard A and Keyboard C, p = .71.

While teaching first-graders a lesson on life cycles, a child asks to teach the others a song about the life stages of butterflies that she learned at camp over the summer. How can the teacher best handle this request?
A) Suggest that the student teach the song to others during recess. B) Ask the child to share the song with you individually and, if the song is scientifically accurate, allow the student to teach it to classmates. C) Tell the student songs are for music class only and that singing is not part of the science curriculum. D) Ignore the request to keep other children from wanting to bring songs into lessons.
