@jonny Hey Jonny! Would you be willing to share some advice on a very basic experimental design, for a student project? We wish to explore if energy/high-sugar/carbonated drinks impact/reduce student reaction times (measured with Backyard Brains Muscle Spiker + Reaction Timer). The project is aimed to be an exercise in experimental design (neurophysiology is just the research context). The general idea is to measure the reaction times of volunteers before and after consuming the drink. 1/2
@jonny We can play with drink selection - Red Bull, sugar-free Red Bull, a local energy drink ("Guarana"), maybe also with a sugar-free variety, Coca Cola, Coca Cola Zero, and local soda without caffeine ("Kokta" + sugar-free "Kokta"). I was thinking in lieu of factorial design and repeated measures ANOVA. We need to work out the details: do we test each volunteer for each drink? Are we bound to just one test a day, per volunteer? Do we measure baseline reaction times only once per volunteer?
@jonny I'm the teacher, but I would like to approach the project with student mindset (discuss the issues and ask for advice, not just micromanage my students and tell them "the right way" to do stuff).
@rubinjoni You don't really "clean" a cast iron skillet. If it gets dirty, just spread a thin layer of Greek yogurt onto the skillet and wait for it to harden.
