Post by: yerlidalton on Jun 24, 2017 You recently completed a psychology experiment on campus in this little room the size of a closet which was stuffy and warm. Your task was to sit in front of single computer screen displaying a simulated airplane cockpit and detect when a warning light flashed. When finished, the experimenter told you she was studying how people miss warning lights and that she will apply the results to airline pilots? What is the problem with this type of research with regard to external validity?
A) The warm room was an nuisance variable so the researcher cannot make cause-and-effect conclusions. B) Results may not apply to airline pilots because the experiment and airplane environments are so different. C) Results may not apply to airline pilots because of temporal generalization. D) The warm room was an extraneous variable so the researcher cannot make cause-and-effect conclusions.
