Helen Is Conducting an Experiment to Determine How Temperatures Affect

question 89

True/False

Helen is conducting an experiment to determine how temperatures affect the productivity of workers.She has just completed the first phase of her experiment,in which she had a group of workers perform job related tasks in a special room where the temperature was 10 degrees cooler than on the factory floor.The workers in the experimental group consistently outperformed workers in the factory.The Hawthorne effect suggests that the most likely reason for this improvement in performance is that the cooler working conditions allowed the workers in the experiment to work harder without getting tired.
