Mrs. J. knew that students who attended her morning study sessions performed better on science tests but very few students attended them. She wanted to test if bringing doughnuts to the study sessions would increase student attendance. She continued to advertise the sessions in the same method and hold sessions at the same time. The only difference was that she brought doughnuts to the session. She had a 50% increase in attendance when she brought the doughnuts.
