Reflection

Some difficulties and problems i faced when conducting the experiment was that it very hard to tabulate the results. Normalizing the results I had was difficult as it was hard to convert the data into percentages and it didn't add up. This was overcome by creating a different way of tabulating and graphing the data by using average percentages of the data.


Another difficulty was when conducting the experiment, factors had altered the results which caused some of the results to be inaccurate. "Blue M&Ms are bad for you" made some of the participants not choose blue M&Ms at all and that affected the results. This was overcome by assuming there was no blue for those participants and asking them for a different favourite colour.


Improvements I could have done with this experiment was that I could have used more time to execute this experiment and to test more people to create more reliability. I could have used more accurate data creating a graph with averaged data scores.
