If for example you chose to do ‘do males have bigger feet than females?’ you would have to get a sample, of say 50 males and females shoe sizes, but it could be less!

You’d then have to put all the data into tables and stem and leaf diagrams to help you to analyse it! If you know how to do box plots, they make it easier because you can really see, how the medians and the inter quartile ranges differ!

But you could also widen your experiment, to not only if males have bigger feet than females, but if that changes with age? For example would a five year old male have bigger feet than a five year old female?

This sounds awfully confusing i know, i had to do it for coursework last year, except mine was are boys taller than girls except then the teacher made me broaden it and include age as well! If this is just for fun then sorry for the compicated thing lol! But if its for homework or coursework or something i’d be happy to try and help out!

Some other examples are.

Do boys weigh more than girls?

Do energy drinks effect a runners performance?

Do taller people weigh more?

What is the difficulty? None of your experiments need any sophisticated instruments or elaborate procedures. The material is at hand and everywhere around you. The only thing needed is for you to give up your reservations about approaching peopld around you. These people need not be st rangers whom you do not know but just your family members,friends and neighbours. However, you will find that even total strangers are cooperatiie if you explain to them your approach.

For feet measurements you will have to actually take them of the people around you==both males and females.In fact they will enjoy the attention you give them.The same goes with studying the reflexes of the leftiesa and the righties.In fact they will be flattered when you approach them and explain the purpose of your visit.(Bewrare some Righties may artiificially try to give out that they are smarter and vice versa.For this purpose you may have to extend the experiments over more individuals so that you can arrve at an average result. The same goes with the male and remale reflexes.Ten to one the chances are that each gender would attempt to show it is smarter No difficulty .Extend the experiments. You can also carefully observe the re actions of individuals about you and arrive at a conclusion.

Best of luck.
