This is an Experimental Psychology course. We are asked to write a paper on an experiment we did with the whole class. 84 Brooklyn College students participate in a study in which they play a role as jurors and are randomly assigned into 3 different conditions of eyewitnesses: a) no eyewitness, b) unrefuted eyewitness, and c) discredited eyewitness (blind or didn’t wear glasses). I hypothesized that the unrefuted eyewitness group would have a significantly higher guilt score compared to the other conditions.
I wrote a brief abstract myself that can be found in the file “MyAbstract.docx”. You can include this in the abstract and tweak it however you’d like.
A classmate of mine shared her paper with me which can be found in the file “ClassmatePaper.pdf”. You can feel free to use this a reference, as all our data is the same throughout the class and the hypothesis are similar for everybody, but don’t copy the whole paper obviously. Also, try to use different references than my classmate please.

Click the “Be A Juror” and then “Launch Experiment”.
When we did it in class, we were randomly assigned one of three conditions.
Any questions, let me know.
