Question 27

Researchers recruit adults aged 70 to 79 for a route-planning task and use their findings to make conclusions about people of all ages. A coder expects participants using a paper map to hesitate more than participants using written directions, so records unclear pauses as hesitations more often in the paper-map condition.
