Explanation for Question 16 From the Reading Section on the 2020 March Sat
Okay. So for number 16 years is based on the passage, 2 which means we kind of go back, which standard regarding the subjects in Tucker 3 and Ellis experiment can most really be in Berk. 4 What can mean for about the subjects in Tucker analysis 5 experiment is essentially saying, um, 6 okay. So we have to go back to the paragraph about Dr. 7 Allison experiment 8 and those look at what the subjects think. 9 The people that are actually getting studied. So they asked the subjects to judge 10 whether items were upside down and respite up the stimuli, 11 the set of photographs of common house with objects like Brian Gaynor specialist subjects 12 were to indicate their choice, but pressing the Disney button, 13 one button was basically the subject. So left-hand the other end of the right 14 hand. Detailees normally when it considered to be important, 15 but that was essential for what different analysts were really getting at. 16 So, okay. When you read this, 17 it seems like the subjects probably thought that this detail was super important or 18 they didn't really understand what they were getting tested on. 19 Right. They were being asked to think about right set up versus outside down, 20 but look at secretly Tucker and Ellis were not particularly interested in whether they 21 chose upside down or right-side up, but instead they were interested in how quick 22 they ended up pressing the button. So the subjects thought, 23 oh, we're getting tested on upside numbers, 24 right. Set up. But secretly that wasn't what they were getting tested for. 25 So the answer to this is going to be that the subjects really didn't 26 understand actually what they were getting tested for. 27 Um, and that's it, they don't really, 28 they're unaware of the true focus of the study.
