Answer to Question 1

In laboratory experiments, students often feel obligated to participate as part of their grade, or they may fear antagonizing an instructor who's conducting a study. Participants might also give the answers that they think the researcher expects.As a result of this, Antonio's research might not generate accurate, unbiased results. In the case of paid subjects, those who are the busiest, don't need the extra cash, move, or become ill may not participate fully or may drop out of the study.This may affect Antonio's research significantly because the research is likely to be incomplete or the data collected inaccurate.
