Acknowledgements

    First and foremost, I would like to thank Professor Finn. Your dedication as a professor and enthusiasm for all of your students’
individual projects has had an enormous impact on us all. Without you, this experience would have been much more painful!
     I would also like to thank Professor Geck for her help in the design of my study and the rest of the psychology department for
their advice and guidance.
     To my both my Experimental II class and fellow psychology majors, congratulations, and thank you all for your support!
     In addition, thank you to Mr. Paul, Mr. Bousquet, and their staff for letting me work with your students. Without your patience
and support, this surely would not have been achieved.
     Lastly, to my family and friends… aren’t you glad you do not have to listen to me complain about this anymore? Thank you… for
the many proof readings, moral support, and help with the actual research.
     Though it seemed like a struggle at times, now that it’s over, I can regard the experience as an accomplishment. Thank you to all
who made that possible.
