It was done using 20 individuals af age groups 15-18. Instant black coffee was used as the caffeine source. Their reaction times were recorded before and after consuming caffeine. The standard deviations of the reaction times were obtained and a Z-test for matched samples was carried out. The results showed significant differences in the reaction times of the individuals. It was concluded that caffeine did have an effect on the reaction time of an ndividual. Aim: My aim is to investigate the effect of caffeine on students solving maths problems. Plan: Hypothesis: My alternate hypothesis is that ingesting caffeine will have an effect on the students decreasing their reaction time. My null hypothesis is that ingesting caffeine will have no effect onther reaction time of the students. I predict that caffeine does effect the...
