We recently conducted a study on inattentional blindness among social and natural sciences students and found sustained sex differences in Inattentional blindness (IB). In the second study where we wanted to use Stereotype threat manipulation models in the experimental part of the study, we did not find any gender differences. Can this be because of differential professional socialization of medical students?
In the first study, I have 80 participants, in the second study I have 64 participants.
How was the gender distribution in these samples?
Respected Researchers
There could be several reasons, it is as follows:
• The sample was drawn from the same community (same college. (
• Not conducting an investigation equivalence among the members of the research sample (gender, age, university level, degree or visual acuity).
• The tool used to measure or diagnose unintended blindness, did not include items to detect falsification of the answer, or different positions for the answer (various alternatives).
• The tool used to measure or diagnose stereotype threat includes items similar to the items of the first scale (the first tool) and this is what led to the equivalence of the answer.
• Not choosing the appropriate statistical means for the study's objectives.
Please verify this information, and then respond to the specific reasons, in order to help you overcome the problem.
