Devise a laboratory experiment

Reference no: EM13486224

Devise a laboratory experiment that would test the following hypothesis:

Men who work with women who appear clearly more effective than themselves in finding a solution to a problem-solving task will have a higher regard for women than men who work on the same task in a group without women.

Note: This experiment involves only men as subjects. The women are simply confederates and not part of the basic design.

Describe exactly where and how you would select the men for the study. How many would you select? Why?
