<p>Really? Confound a previous theory/research means you prove it wrong. doesnt it? well I hope invoke is correct but million people told me it’s confound lol</p>
<p>Let google be thy ultimate judge:
“counfound a study”: 3.430 results
“evoke a study”: 98 results.</p>
<p>
Yep.</p>
<p>no apparently the curve is out already and it’s 7wrong = 700 :(</p>
<p>was there an answer “1/6” for the student produced response for math?
the question was the 2 dice and the chance of it not being the patterns shown in the given ones</p>
<p>well you can look up invoke and confound synonyms. its obvious which word fits better. the minority is right sometimes.</p>
<p>omg… the curve of 7 wrong=700 is of CR or ??</p>

confound makes no sense. you can’t confound research. the word you would put there is refute, contradicts. invoke makes sense. it appeals a previous research to confirm the current study</p>
<p>You want an example?
Gurmankin examined the discussion of risks that are recognized universally, such as ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and infection. However, the author confounded the study by examining the discussion of the risk of ovarian cancer from fertility drugs.
You can find hundreds, thousands of those. Confound = disprove. Evoke = conjure, call forth.</p>
<p>That confound/invoke question sentence was at contradiction right? It was something that new research disproved a previous research or maybe I just read it wrong.</p>
<p>the word is INVOKE not EVOKE. does it make more sense now?</p>
<p>Can you guys write the question?</p>
<p>Nope.
Invoke = activate, beseech, beg, call up, select, refer to… Just google confound a study. You’ll see thausands of examples.</p>
<p>anyone answer my math q?</p>
<p>“If a variable other than the one that is manipulated by the researcher has any affect at all on the measurements, then the study is said to be confounded.”</p>
<p>invoke also has another meaning, to appeal, or protest.</p>
<p>700 wrong = 700 for cr</p>
<p>do you have curves for any other sectios? where did you get this informatio nfor the curves?</p>
<p>Appeal yes, but in the spirit of call forth or address, not protest. You won’t convince me and I won’t convince you. It’s difficult, since we don’t have the test material and we were, apparently both pretty convinced when we made our choices. We’ll see who’s right on Oct 25th. :)</p>
<p>well yes. the question mentions a current study that _____ a previous research. it invokes the previous research; as in it appeals the previous to address and support the current study. I was actually very ambiguous making this choice. but confound, from all the dictionaries i have visited, is not the word for this.</p>
<p>Uh…miasanmia, if the question really is as you posted it, neither confound nor invoke makes sense. Are you sure you wrote it out correctly? The correct word would be something like ‘compromised’ - neither ‘confounded’ nor ‘invoke’ fits. </p>
<p>“If a variable other than the one that is manipulated by the researcher has any affect at all on the measurements, then the study is said to be compromised.”</p>
<p>Makes sense, putting in confound or invoke in it’s place does not.</p>
<p>the question was something like that. none of the other words fit. corrinder94 mentioned that “expostulate” was one other word but i dont remember seeing that.</p>
