29) A researcher creates a list of 50 common words. The words are written in different color inks. Half of the words are in all capital letters, while the other half are all in lowercase. The researcher recruits 500 participants and randomly divides them into five groups. She asks the groups to do slightly different things with the list of words: Group #1: For each word, indicate the color of the ink Group #2: For each word, indicate if it rhymes with a matching word on a second list Group #3: For each word, indicate if it’s written in all capitals or all lowercase Group #4: For each word, write down a sentence that the word fits into Group #5: For each word, indicate if it starts with a vowel or a consonant Three hours after the participants finish their task, the researcher brings the participants back into the lab and asks them to write down as many of the words as they can remember. All other things being equal, which group would you expect to remember the MOST words?
