Experiment and Script OverviewThe experiment is trying to collate data to show the effectiveness of Foot-in-door and Door-in-face

compliance methods.

The following are included for use in the experiment:

Scripts: Ive separated the scripts made into two separate sheets. One has the Door-in-face andthe other has Foot-in-door.

Petition Signing Sheet: To actually get them to sign the petition. Dummy Details Collection Sheet: In case they want to look at details required Ive just included

one but our aim is to purely get them to say Yes or No and then at that point stop the

experiment and debrief them or let them go on their way.

Debriefing Details: Debriefing from experiment. Lecturer said that its ok not to debrief them ifyou get an initial negative response but otherwise to debrief them.

Experimental Data Sheet: A sheet just for the experimenter to keep a score of numbers ofpositives and negatives and when participants pulled out etc.
