  2. Instructions to participants…. • Students are not to talk at all during the data collection. • You will be randomly allocated into one of two groups. • Odd ID numbers = one group • Even ID numbers = one group • Both groups will receive handouts to complete when instructed. Do not start filling in the handouts without permission. • Both groups will also be shown a separate advertisement on smoking. Whilst the odd number group watches their advertisement, the even number group must leave the room, and vice versa.

  3. Odd numbered group • Those of you in the odd numbered group, please spread yourselves around the room. Have with you a watch/timer, a pen, a ruler and your handouts. • Even numbered group, please leave the room and go to the area Mrs Codrington instructs.

  4. Odd Numbered Group - Data Collection • You will now be shown an advertisement on smoking. It will last approximately 20 seconds. • Once the advertisement is finished, you will be instructed to measure your heart rate using your watch/timer. You will be measuring your heart rate for 60 seconds. Mrs Codrington will time you. • You may measure your heart rate from your wrist or your neck – up to you. • Once the 60 seconds is up, record your b.p.m where instructed on handout three.

  5. Odd Numbered Group - Data Collection • Now that you have completed the b.p.m on handout 3, please continue to complete the rest of the handouts 3, 4, 5. • You will need to use a ruler to put a number to your scales that you have indicated on handout 3. • Complete the handouts in silence. If you finish, I will collect your handouts from you. • If you have any questions, please put your hand up. • These handouts will make up the quantitative data for the individual investigation.

  6. Even numbered group • Those of you in the even numbered group, please spread yourselves around the room. Have with you a watch/timer, a pen, a ruler and your handouts. • Odd numbered group, please leave the room and go to the area Mrs Codrington instructs.

If you finish, I will collect your handouts from you. • If you have any questions, please put your hand up. • These handouts will make up the quantitative data for the individual investigation.

  9. Focus Groups • Each group needs to assign a scribe and a facilitator. The scribe types all the responses from the group members and the facilitator makes sure each person contributes to the discussion. • Groups will respond to and answer 3 questions relating to smoking and binge drinking. You should be aiming for at least one page of responses per question. • I will be checking in on each group throughout the time allocation. Any questions or issues, come and see me. • Total time allocation: 45 minutes

  10. Focus Groups • Once finished, scribes email me the focus group responses immediately. • These focus group responses will make up the qualitative data for the individual investigation.

  11. Debriefing • Thank you very much for your participation in this Persuasion study. • If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to email or come see me. • The data will be made available to you a.s.a.p. with full confidentiality guidelines adhered to. • I will be following the same procedure with the other class. Please do not tell them about the data collection today. • Does any one have any questions?
