INTRODUCTION
What is true in the eyes of one, can be seen as a delusion in
another. We, as a society, are made up of a dramatically diverse amalgam
of cultures and abilities. Finding out what those differences are can help
us reach a better understanding of each other, thus a more equitable
relationship can be developed. Therefore, finding the observational
abilities of a given group may help yield some interesting and valuable
information.
In the following study several groups were tested on their
observational abilities. In order to develop such a test, it was necessary
to devise a structured approach for gathering and interpreting the
information. Therefore, the scope of the test was formulated based on
hypothesis testing. The following hypothesis was established as the
criterion for the test:
Null hypothesis (Ho) :
Males and females do not have different observational abilities
Alternative Hypothesis (H1) :
Males and females do have different observational abilities
EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN
The study consisted of 3 groups of varying size and structure.

Experiments with Long exposure and lights-033During the initial phase, the members of the study were unaware that
any test was being conducted. The locations of the test were Wilford
Hall Medical Center : Primary Care Meeting, University of the Incarnate
Word : World Literature Class, and University of Texas at San Antonio :
Business Statistics Class. The sample sizes and constructs were as
follows:
Wilford Hall Medical Center : 30 people - 19 (F) 11 (M)
University of the Incarnate Word : 19 people - 9 (F) 10 (M)
University of Texas at San Antonio: 32 people - 11 (F) 21 (M)
The test subjects were all presented with the same scenario, given the
normal degree of variation. The procedure of the test was as follows:
÷ The instructor/manager was advised that a test would be...
