1）Researchers investigated whether introducing a good-luck-related superstition would improve the performance of participants attempting to hit a golf ball into a hole (Damisch, Stoberock, & Mussweiler, 2010). Participants in the study were randomly assigned to one of two groups. Those in the first group were told, “Here is your ball. So far it has turned out to be a lucky ball.” Those in the second group were told, “This is the ball everyone has used so far.” Participants then made ten attempts to hit the ball into the hole. The researchers measured the number of successful attempts, and they found that the mean difference between the two groups was statistically significant. The researchers theorized that the superstitious beliefs produced higher levels of self-efficacy, which led to improved performance.

1. Part A
   • Identify the design feature that makes the study experimental rather than correlational.
   •  Explain what it means to say that there is a statistically significant difference between the two groups.
   • Explain how a superstitious belief might be related to a higher level of self-efficacy.
2. Part B
   Many people engage in superstitious behavior, such as wearing lucky socks, in the belief that the superstitious behavior will lead to improved performance. Explain how each of the following may lead to the development or maintenance of superstitious beliefs or behaviors.
   • Illusory correlation
   • Positive reinforcement
   • External locus of control
   • Episodic memory
