Document Summary
The test on october 11 is multiple choice. These studies involve observing and classifying behavior. And this was reflected in the middle- classes grades in school later on. Festinger and a number of different psychologists in 1956 wanted to study cognitive dissonance. That means that if your attitude doesn"t mash your behavior, you will think two things that are hard to believe. So they went and stayed with this cult, called the seekers and their leader was marian keech. They believed that on december aliens would come down, and. Keech would get messages from this alien race, and they believed that the world would end. So they believed even more strongly in their religion. So these steps add to more rigorous testing. In correlational studies, we are specifically examining how variables are related to one another. This is a kind of thing we do in an experiment.
