The color red has been shown to induce greater aggression in people than the
color blue, Researchers conducted a study to determine whether such colorinduced aggression could influence the amount that consumers were willing to
pay for an identical product in online auction and online negotiation scenarios.
The researchers photographed a single item against each of four background
colors: blue, gray, white, and red. Using a computer, each participant in the study
viewed the item against exactly one of the four background colors. Half of the
participants were told the item was up for auction and were asked to submit their
highest bid for the item. The other half of the participants were told to negotiate
a price with the seller and were asked to offer the highest amount that they
would be willing to pay for the item.
The researchers expected that participants who viewed the red background
would typically behave more aggressively than those who viewed the blue
background. Among the auction group, the researchers hypothesized that more
aggressive participants would submit higher bids as they tried to beat other
potential bidders. Among the negotiation group, the researchers hypothesized
that more aggressive participants would make lower offers as they tried to
compete against the seller to get the best deal.
For each of the following statements about the researchers' study, select Yes if
that statement accurately reflects the information provided. Otherwise, select No.


Television picture quality improves as resolution increases. However, the resolution at which a given improvement in resolution becomes visible varies with the distance of
the viewer from the screen. As a viewer moves closer to the screen, a given improvement in resolution eventually becomes noticeable, finally conferring its “full benefit” at
a point at which moving closer would not improve the viewing experience.
On the graph, 480p, 720p, 1080p, and 1440p represent four common degrees of resolution: greater numbers indicate greater numbers of pixels on the screen and thus
greater resolution. Shaded portions show the distances at which these resolutions become noticeable, while the broken lines show the maximum distances at which a
viewer with normal eyesight would be expected to experience full benefit—all as a function of screen size. For each resolution and screen size shown, there is a small gap
between the maximum distance for full benefit from the resolution and the minimum distance for noticeable benefit from the next higher resolution.
(Note: 3 feet is roughly 1 meter, and 1 inch is roughly 2.5 centimeters.)
Assuming that the information contained in the graphic correctly applies to all viewers, select from the drop-down menus the options making the statements most
accurate.
