H1: Students who
write one-minute papers will perform better on a subsequent a. essay
b. multiple choice quiz than students who do not write one-minute
papers.
H1 actually contains two hypotheses. Why?
H2: Students who
address their one-minute papers to a novice audience will perform
better on a subsequent quiz than students who address their papers
to the instructor.
|
H3: Students whose
one-minute papers are graded will perform better on a subsequent
quiz than students whose one-minute papers are not graded.
H4: The difference
in quiz performance between students who do and do not write one
minute papers will be less for higher ability students than for
lower ability students.

In some studies, questions
are most usefully framed as hypotheses to be tested. All of these hypotheses
were successfully tested in the referenced study.
