A research team wants to investigate the effect of workplace lighting on employee focus using an experimental method. They design an experiment comparing a 'cool natural daylight simulation' (6500 Kelvin) to a 'warm incandescent simulation' (2700 Kelvin). Participants are asked to complete a complex 30-minute data-entry task under one of the lighting conditions, and the number of data-entry errors is recorded.
Suggest one closed question you could use to obtain some additional information from the participants in this study, including the response options, and explain how this information would be useful to the researchers.
