Hi, my name is Kelvin. This is my first semester in Baruch as a freshman. I have lived in Brooklyn my entire life. By far, psychology is the most interesting class of my semester, but I have not decided what I want to major in yet. My interests include music and dance; I am not the greatest dancer but I am trying to learn now. The first dance I have ever learned was the shuffle. Contrary to what you may believe, i didn’t start because of Party Rock Anthem. I saw a song I liked and the choreography was based on the shuffle. After I learned how to shuffle, I became more interested in different dance styles so I’ve started to look at a lot more dance videos of popping, waving and break dancing. I am not that great now but I am aspiring to be better. If you know any dance moves, I would be glad to learn from you.

"What would be your hypothesis of the study’s outcome?
I believe getting a good night sleep will be better than students who do not get a good night sleep.
What suggestions do you have for the researcher on how to improve or adjust the proposed study?
Well, perhaps you should limit the number of hours each person study gets to study for because rehearsal and repetition of information is retained better. Those who had a good night sleep maybe studied less than those who did not sleep and as sleep didn't remember those who studied the material over and over again.
Are there any drawbacks or potential harmful impacts of this research design (or results?)
Well for those who study overnight will be tiring out their body with the lack of sleep which will induce fatigue.
What would be the NEXT STEP after this hypothetical research study were conducted and presented to the public? Can you propose a replication with a good twist? That’s often how research works and how the field is able to advance. Maybe you can think up a great Follow Up study!
If it turns out getting a good night sleep is better than staying up all night, then perhaps decide how many hours makes retaining information the best. Is it when students feel they are well rested or is it the longer they sleep the better the information is retained." posted on Oct 11, 2011, on the post Performance on exams: study overnight or have a good night sleep?
"What would be your hypothesis of the study's outcome?
I believe a good amount of gaming would improve test scores based on the level of concentration needed to play any game (though it will vary from game to game).
What suggestions do you have for the researcher on how to improve or adjust the proposed study?
The types of games that people play vary from person to person. Therefore, you should maybe do some different experiments comparing how one genre of a game improved test scores or perhaps how two different genres of games played by two students showed different results. The experiment is a bit too general and many variations can be done so narrow down your research to something more specific.
Are there any drawbacks or potential harmful impacts of this research design (or results?)
Well, the drawback of the research design is I believe what is considered excessive compared not excessive. Some people may believe the amount for gaming they do is quite little compared to other people. Although you are recording how many hours they say they play, what is to say it is excessive the game players or not?

As I have said before, depending on what you do, if the hypothesis holds true find out which game or game genre is best to help students do better on tests." posted on Oct 11, 2011, on the post gaming and grades
"Some factors to keep in mind is to make if any assistants you have helping you record what everyone drinks should not know about which is coke and pepsi so they would be biased on the results. Also, you should have a control group which drinks no cola at all. Perhaps those in the control might actually do better than the groups who drank coca cola or pepsi. Although it would be great if coca cola actually did help students study better, if the research shows it doesn't it should be known whether the hypothesis holds or not. Another thing to keep in mind is whether or not is cola that is helping students study more, or the amount of sugar to keep awake. It isn't a bad experiment to test out which I am curious about myself but there could be a lot more research done in addition to this experiment." posted on Oct 11, 2011, on the post How different types of drinks affect the ability to study? Coke vs Pepsi
