There is probably some association of urinating with running water, because
after childbirth, when there is sometimes trouble urinating, the
recommendation is to turn on the water in the sink when trying to urinate, or
to run
water over the area.

Women who have had children may recall that shortly after giving birth
there's often a similar attempt to encourage urination in new mothers. I
don't recall that it worked, but there must be a belief that it's helpful,

It's not always so easy. I just did a study that used reading comprehension as
the DV which was a 20-item quiz over a set of readings. The material was
intense and unfamiliar and on avereage students scored 13 on the quiz. But a
few scored only 4 or 5 points. Were they not careful readers or wer
It might be a chain of associations. For example, proximity to a toilet often
leads to an increased urge to urinate, probably because contact (so to speak)
with toilets is reliably associated with urination -- or at least relaxation of
the urinary sphincter. The closer you get to the restroom
Has anyone else had the experience of feeling an intense desire to urinate when
filling a glass of water or otherwise hearing water run like in a creek (I
think this is an auditory experience -- I don't think that just seeing water
causes this response).
Although one would be tempted to refer t

I feel the same way about anyone using instincts to explain behavior.

The other day my daughter bought a cone of cinnamon gelato. I tasted it
and it immediately made me think oftoast (with cinnamon of course).
We're not talking about a reflex here, but this is Pavlovian conditioning
correct?

I recall with (somewhat, but not complete) fondness the days when I could do
some systematic research. I made it a point to get my data early in the
semester; the students who participate early are (generally) more motivated by
the doing of the research and less by the panic of either having t
Here might be the issue folks and it's so pathetically
understandable--relative to Carol's point about how cavalier students are
toward teacher evaluations and how some students exhibit the same
unfortunate attitude when acting as a participant in research studies.

Hi
It certainly would be nice for all students to take research participation (and
class participation and tests and life and ...) equally serious, but that is
unlikely to ever be the case. I doubt, however, that slack participants have
much effect. Only a few obvious ways that they could aff
My understanding is that that type of perspective would clearly violate the
ethical guidelines for research participation (i.e., protection of rights of
research participants) as set forth by the APA and APS. Be careful Michael (and
I doubt they would accept any kind of Eurocentric excuse for su
I can't help but wonder if this isn't an awful lot like the way students treat
evaluations of teaching. It seems that the same concerns would be there in both
cases.

Because the "alternatives" to research participation requirements are pretty
much in place everywhere, I'll wager that the students who reported to Joan
that they were required to participate in research were actually offered those
alternatives. I'll also wager that the alternatives were present

Take all the data they provided for the study and run Mahalanobis distance
calculations to see if at least some of them can be screened out of your
data due to being multivariate outliers.
