Psychology experiments that will help you to focus on winning...
Science fair projects on concentration will now only help you to meet your science course requirements, but they will also give you new insight into how to improve your ability to concentrate. These psychology experiments look at a number of factors that could potentially impact a person's ability to concentrate. These factors include quiet, noise and visual distractions. You can expand on these projects by testing new factors that you come up with. The more quiet a work space is the better able a person is to concentrate. This hypothesis is the starting point for your science fair projects on concentration. To test this hypothesis you will need to put students through a variety of testing situations. Each test will have a different level of noise and one will have no noise at all. You will ask each student to report on how the noise level affected their ability to concentrate. Low frequency noise impacts a person's ability to concentrate. This is another hypothesis that can be tested using science fair projects on concentration. To test this hypothesis you will need to generate a low frequency noise and pump it into the work environment of your test subjects. You will then ask them if they were able to concentrate or if they felt like it was difficult to concentrate. The independent variable in this experiment will be the absence of presence of the low frequency noise and the dependent variable will be the students' self perceived ability to concentrate. High frequency noise impacts a person's ability to concentrate. This is a variation of the above experiment. In medicine-health science fair projects that examine high frequency noise's impact on concentration you will need to conduct two experiments. One will involve no noise and one will involve the high frequency sound. You can vary this experiment by increasing or decreasing the volume of the high frequency noise or by changing the frequency of noise that you use to see if the effect increases as the frequency increases. The volume of noise in a workspace impacts a person's ability to concentrate. This is yet one more variation of the above A+ science fair projects. For this experiment the volume will be the independent variable and the person's ability to concentrate will be the dependent variable. This can be an interesting science fair experiment for students who normally study with loud music or the television blaring in the background. To advance the above science fair projects all you have to do is take the results and make a new prediction. Then you will turn this new prediction into a new hypothesis. You will then create a new experiment and a new science fair project. That is all there is to it. Not too bad, right? Copyright © 2003 - 2010 Super Science Fair Projects - All Rights Reserved.
