How do you write a hypothesis on milgram's experiment?

Stanley Milgram's experiment investigated the effect of authority on people's willingness to do unethical things, stemming from the experiences of the Holocaust. I think his hypothesis was that if people are pressured by a person of authority to do something, they will do it, even if it is against their moral code.


An experiment finds that teens who play video games have increased critical thinking skills. What might have been the hypothesis for this experiment?

The hypothesis for this experiment could have been "Playing video games is associated with improved critical thinking skills in teenagers." The researchers likely predicted that there would be a positive relationship between the hours spent playing video games and the level of critical thinking skills demonstrated by the participants.


What can an experiment prove that an observational study cannot?

An experiment can establish causation by manipulating variables and controlling for potential confounding factors, while an observational study can only show correlation. Experiments allow researchers to directly test hypotheses and determine the effects of specific interventions, providing stronger evidence for causal relationships. Additionally, experiments can help establish a cause-and-effect relationship with higher confidence due to their randomized controlled design.


Why is it wrong for a researcher to assign the first subjects to show up for an experiment to the experimental group and the second group of subjects to arrive to the control group?

Because then the grouping is (technically) not random. In order for an experiment to yield proper results, the grouping must be random. If the researcher assigns subjects to groups in the order in which they arrive, then the randomness of the experiment is not present. cw: There are experiments on experiments that show that the first half of subjects are different from the second half of subjects. Why is another question. So you should randomize the allotment of subjects to treatments (groups).
