A psychology student carried out a laboratory experiment to investigate the effect of word concreteness on short-term memory recall. She used an opportunity sample of 25 participants.
Two lists of words were read out to participants:
All 25 participants listened to List 1 and immediately tried to recall as many words as possible. Next, they all listened to List 2 and immediately tried to recall these words.
Write a non-directional hypothesis for this experiment.
