The findings were also conclusive as the method followed by Mcgarrigle was extremely similar to Piaget’s with only a slight adaptation, showing that younger children can also conserve. However because the study relies on younger children having animism, the teddy is used. But if comparative studies were undertaken then older children would needed to be asked differently and so results for conservation could be affected. The use ‘Naughty Teddy' may be distracting the child away from concentrating to the change of counters and therefore the answer given is not a true account of what the child
In “Mother’s Exercise May Boost Baby’s Brain “ ,published in the New York Times , Gretchen Reynolds demonstrates that if a women is physically active rather than being inactive during a pregnancy , her baby will have more of an advantage in brain development. Through experiments, Reynolds bases of her argument and proves that exercise will boost a baby’s brain. The first experiment, which was presented at the Society for Neuroscience’s annual meeting in San Diego, was done with a group of pregnant rats. Scientists allowed for some of the rats to exercise throughout their pregnancy by allowing them to run on the wheel. After their pregnancy, tests were done on the pups by having them identify unfamiliar objects.
IB PSYCHOLOGY A study of the role of punishment on mathematical performance of adolescents. (An Experiment Not to be replicated!) Professor Psycho wants to understand how punishment can improve student performance on math tests. He tells his psychology class they must be the subjects in his experiment or they will suffer a grade penalty in their next test. He assigns 10 students with the best GPA to the PUNISHMENT GROUP and 10 students with the lowest GPA to the WITHOUT PUNISHMENT GROUP.

He says that children who play outside and explore the great outdoors are more creative and that being outside help children become better athletes, and prevent depression. How do we know that?

Therefore moving all activities inside which caused parents to watch their children become couch potatoes.
