In a test of the impact of delay on recall, a researcher has two groups study a list of words. For the immediate recall condition, the researcher has the subjects recall the words immediately after the study period has ended.
 
  For the delay recall condition, the researcher has the subjects recall the words three minutes after the study period has ended. The researcher found that there was not a significant difference in the number of words recalled between the two conditions. The researcher decides to conduct the study again, this time using fifteen minutes as the delay between studying and recalling the list. The researcher is trying to optimize t by
   a. increasing the total size of the study.
   b. using the dependent t test rather than independent t test.
   c. decreasing the variability of response within groups.
   d. driving the means further apart.

Question 2

With 8 degrees of freedom, Linda finds that the probability associated with her obtained t value of 1.9 is p =.047 (one-tailed). What should Linda conclude?
 
  a. The means from both groups are not significantly different from each other.
  b. The means from both groups are significantly different from each other.
  c. The difference between the means of both groups has practical significance.
  d. She did not have enough participants in her study.

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
