Abstract
This research predicts that the relationship between chewing gum while learning new information and during the recall of the information is going to be positively correlated with each other. By using a two-by-two factorial between-subjects design, 25-30 participants are going to be randomly assigned into four condition groups. These groups are as follows: gum during learning and recall, gum only during learning but not in recall, gum during recall but not in learning, and no gum in either condition. According to previous research gum during both conditions should be positively correlated.
