Whats a good investigation/experiment for my science research project that won take very long?
My uncle once taught a college course in psychology and he had his students find a busy intersection which was controlled by a 4-way stop sign. They were working on a graph called a J CURVE. They had to log each car that stopped (This was the long line of the J from the top to the bottom curve), How many cars rolled through the stop (This was the bottom curve), and how many cars ran the stop sign (This was the smaller straight line on the left side of the J as it comes out of the curve). This is basically a free experiment. You need to find a busy intersection with a 4-way stop sign (the busier it is, that faster you finish your project). 1. Question: What is the ratio of cars that stop at stops signs versus the cars that roll through them or cars that run stop signs? 2. I believe that my research will show that x% of the cars actually stop at stop signs, I believe that it will show that x% will roll through the stop sign and it will show that x% will actually run the stop sign. 3.
