padfoot Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Basically, I need help in tweaking an idea I found online into something I can actually experiment...I found this online and it really interested me:http://www.iworx.com/LabExercises/lockedexercises/LockedStretchReceptors-Reflexes-LS2.pdfHowever, I showed this to my teacher and said that it wouldn't be enough for an IA since it's just demonstrating a simple known fact. I would really enjoy doing an IA in this topic/area so can I have some ideas on what I could do with this??Thanks! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandwich Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 I think the problem with any experiment on reflexes is that you don't have any continuous variables. The reflex either happens or it doesn't, so you get no data which is really worth analysing unless you somehow manage to find a whole load of people with nervous damage and can use the extent of damage as a variable (which seems unlikely).If you can't find a variable for an experiment I'm afraid you'll have to drop it no matter how much it interests you.
