Please view the article in PDF and the questions in Word document. All the requirements are in the files.
Assignment A Each question must be answered in complete sentences, in your own words . Please type directly into the document, and submit on BB as a MS Word document. Experiment 1 1. In no less than 100 words, provide a summary of Experiment 1. 2. How did the researchers manipulate social exclusion? 3. How did the researchers measure (define) prosocial behavior? 4. The results of the chi-square analysis of money donated by participants in each condition indicate significant differences were present; in other words, the amount of money donated within each condition was significantly different from what would be expected simply due to chance alone. Review Table 1. Which group donated the highest amount of money? The least? 5. The author’s state “… the prediction of future misfortunes was at least as unpleasant as the prediction of future aloneness, but only the prediction of aloneness led to the reduction in helping behavior”. In 2-3 sentences, provide a possible explanation for this finding. Experiment 2 6. In no less than 100 words, provide a summary of Experiment 2. 7. How did the researchers manipulate social exclusion? 8. How did the researchers measure (define) prosocial behavior? 9. The results of the chi-square analysis were significant, indicating most of the participants accepted by their peers volunteered, whereas few of the participants rejected by their peers volunteered. The authors then state that ‘Mood failed to mediate’. In 2-3 sentences, explain what this means. Experiment 3 10. In no less than 100 words, provide a summary of Experiment 3. 11. How did the researchers manipulate social exclusion? 12. How did the researchers measure (define) prosocial behavior? 13. In 2-3 sentences, explain whether the results of the chi-square analysis done in this experiment are consistent with the findings in Experiments 1 and 2. General questions 14. The authors mention that no manipulation checks were done in their experiments, as all manipulations had been used in previous research. Do some googling, and in 2-3 sentences, define/describe the purpose of a manipulation check. 15. Do you expect prosocial activity after social exclusion to differ in a laboratory setting versus in the real world? In 2-3 sentences, explain your answer. 16. Besides prosocial behaviors, what other behaviors might change if participants receive feedback that they will be alone later in life? In 2-3 sentences, describe at least one of these behaviors, as well as a way in the researchers could assess this behavior. 17. How researchers operationally define variables determines the results of a study. This study used various definitions of prosocial behavior. In 2-3 sentences, describe another way to assess helpfulness (i.e., describe another way in which prosocial behavior could be operationally defined).
