To study whether mindfulness practice (cause) improves productivity in
conceptual modelling (effect) on Software Engineering students (population). |
Taking as a sample population the students of the 2nd year ISEIS course of the
Software Engineering Degree at the University of Seville (sample), one group
(experimental group) attended 10-minute mindfulness sessions for 4 weeks, 4 days
per week (experimental group treatment), while a second group (control group)
attended a public speaking workshop as a placebo (control group treatment).
Students completed two conceptual modelling exercises, one before and one after
the treatment (pre-post experimental design), which were scored against a
reference solution (measurement procedure). The performance of both groups was
compared in terms of quality (similarity to the reference solution) and
productivity (similarity in percentage per unit time)(metrics). |

To study whether the addition of rhamnolipids (cause) improves
Cu phytoextraction (effect) in Cu-contaminated soils (population). |
Samples are taken from two different soils (Coria and Constantina), which are
then artificially contaminated with Cu, distributed in pots, and left to age for
45 days. Then, barley and mustard seeds are sown, fertiliser is added, and JBR-425
rhamnolipid is added after 15 days. After 30 days, the Cu content of plant biomass
and the availability of Cu in soil are analyzed by two different methods: extraction
with CaCl2 and EDTA. Cu was applied in three concentrations: 0, 500 and 1000 mg/kg, so 6
treatment groups were obtained combining the 3 concentrations of Cu with the
addition or not of JBR-425. The control group was taken as the one that was
neither contaminated with copper nor added with JBR-425. |

To study the influence of analysts’ experience and domain knowledge
on the effectiveness of requirements elicitation. |
Analysts' effectiveness was analysed using interviews as the requirements
elicitation technique. In the interviews, the experimenter played the role of
the customer by answering questions from the experimental subjects (analysts)
about two possible problems, one from a known domain and another one from an
unknown domain. To measure the effectiveness of consolidation, after some time,
the analyst wrote down what he/she remembered from the interview and the number
of problem items mentioned by the analyst was measured. |

To evaluate the effectiveness of three code verification and validation
techniques. |
Subjects evaluated the three techniques by applying each one to the C
programs containing the errors to be detected. Previously, the subjects
received training in the use of each of the error detection techniques. |
