SHORT TITLE
did in Experiment 1, you can say so and forego describing those again in detail. However, you
will still need to report the specific demographics for this new sample.
Design. This section is the same as it was for Experiment 1. If the design was very
similar to that of Experiment 1, you may say the design of Experiment 2 was the same as it that
of Experiment 1 with a few changes. Then you should carefully describe the changes. If the
design is very different, then just describe the design here as you normally would!
Materials. The same goes for materials. If they are the same materials or very similar,
state this. If they are different, describe the materials in detail.
Procedure. Now describe your procedure. You may refer to the procedure from
Experiment 1 to explain the procedure for Experiment 2 if they were similar. If they were not,
then describe the procedure in detail.
Results
Write the results for Experiment 2 in the same way that you did before. For example:
Data from Experiment 2 are shown in Figure 2. First, we ran a repeated measures ANOVA on
the final assessment data to determine whether our retrieval formats produced different levels of
learning as measured on the final assessment three weeks later. And so on.
Discussion
Here you discuss the results of Experiment 2. Begin by briefly summarizing the results
found in Experiment 2. Again, link the findings back to your hypotheses. This section is usually
very brief, since you will continue discussing all of your data in the general discussion.
