I just wanted to provide some clarification on Lab 2. As mentioned in the PowerPoint, for this lab you will be working on the introduction section of your paper. This includes the literature review, current study, and your hypotheses.
Literature review: The literature review will be based entirely on the Wells article.
Current study: This is our study in which we are collecting data for from the survey that is due this Friday. The main variable we want to examine in both of the hypotheses (YOU NEED TWO HYPOTHESES) is gender. Based on the Wells article, you need to decide which of the questions to use for your hypotheses. For example, the article mentions they found that males are more likely to wear headphones (and thus being distracted by them). So both hypotheses need to involve gender and its relation to one of the pedestrian behaviors (texting, wearing headphones, eating, etc.). Once again, be sure to use the findings of the Wells article as basis for your hypotheses.
