A description of the study’s hypotheses
2. Which of the following is a disadvantage of using open-ended questions?
The answers must be coded.
2. Dr. Kline is planning on conducting a study next semester. He is curious as to
whether sleep deprivation is associated with poorer cognitive performance. For
example, if you sleep poorly the night before a big exam, will you do worse? Dr.

sleep and then he will wake them. After the participants are awake for one minute,
Dr. Kline plans to let them return to sleep. As they enter REM sleep again, he will
