Question

7 which of the following experiment samples lacks face validity? a hypothesis regarding the lifespan of a queen bee whose wings have been clipped; an experimental design that includes beekeepers and bees fields a hypothesis stating people who went to school for trades were more likely to find a job than those who went to school for a bachelor’s degree; an experimental design that studies the number of jobs in a a hypothesis regarding income levels and successful marriages; an experimental design, including divorced and married couples a hypothesis regarding athletes and low cholesterol; an experimental design, involving chimpanzees in their natural habitat

Explanation:

Face validity refers to whether a study appears on the surface to measure what it claims to. In this option, the hypothesis compares trade school and bachelor's degree graduates' job-finding likelihood, but the experimental design only counts total jobs in fields, not the job-finding success of the two groups. This mismatch means the study lacks face validity, as its method does not align with its stated hypothesis. The other options have methods that logically match their hypotheses.

Answer:

a hypothesis stating people who went to school for trades were more likely to find a job than those who went to school for a bachelor's degree; an experimental design that studies the number of jobs in various fields
