He asks 15 subjects to rate his tea’s 7 4 6
color on a seven-point scale that 8 6 5
ranges from 1 = very unpleasant to 7 9 6 6
= very pleasant, and also to rate its 10 5 9
taste on a ten-point scale that ranges 11 4 8
from 1 = very unpleasant to 10 = very 12 5 5
pleasant. The data are shown in the 13 5 5

Correlations
There is a significant moderate positive correlation between perceived pleasantness of the color
of the brewed tea (M=4.27, SD=1.39) and perceived pleasantness of its taste (M=5.93,
SD=2.31), r(13) = 0.562, p=.029, two-tailed. This indicates that the more pleasant the color of
the tea is perceived to be, the more pleasant the taste is also perceived to be.

Results and Conclusion
• social support and stress: The more social support one has, the lower the
stress tends to be.
• The cooler the temperature, the more tempting a hot broth becomes.
• The more sick you are (if a high score indicates severity), the poorer your
appetite tends to be.
• time spent studying and grade (IF 1.0 is highest and 5.0 is lowest): The more
time a college student spends studying, the better the grade tends to be.
