› Do not begin the exam instructions below until you have completed the
appropriate General Instructions for your group.
Make sure you begin the exam at the designated time. Remember, you must complete a
seating chart for this exam. See pages 295–296 for a seating chart template and instructions.
See the 2018-19 AP Coordinator’s Manual for exam seating requirements (pages 56–59).
If you are giving the regularly scheduled exam, say:

It is Thursday afternoon, May 9, and you will be taking the AP Psychology Exam.
If you are giving the alternate exam for late testing, say:
It is Wednesday morning, May 22, and you will be taking the AP Psychology Exam.
Look at your exam packet and con昀椀rm that the exam title is “AP Psychology.”
Raise your hand if your exam packet contains any title other than
“AP Psychology,” and I will help you.
Once you con昀椀rm that all students have the correct exams, say:
In a moment, you will open the exam packet. By opening this packet, you

You may now remove the shrinkwrap from the outside only of your exam
packet. Do not open the Section I booklet; do not remove the shrinkwrap from
the Section II materials. Put the white seals and the shrinkwrapped Section II
booklet aside. . . .
Carefully remove the AP Exam label found near the top left of your exam
booklet cover. Place it on page 1 of your answer sheet on the light blue box near
the top right corner that reads “AP Exam Label.”
If students accidentally place the exam label in the space for the number label or vice
versa, advise them to leave the labels in place. They should not try to remove the label;
their exam can still be processed correctly.
Listen carefully to all my instructions. I will give you time to complete each
step. Please look up after completing each step. Raise your hand if you have
any questions.
Give students enough time to complete each step. Don’t move on until all students are ready.

front of you the multiple-choice booklet and your answer sheet. You may never
discuss the multiple-choice exam content at any time in any form with anyone,
including your teacher and other students. If you disclose the multiple-choice
exam content through any means, your AP Exam score will be canceled.

Complete an Incident Report for any students who used extra paper for the free-response
section. (Incident Report forms are provided in the coordinator packets sent with

best to complete a single Incident Report for multiple students per exam subject, per
administration (regular or late testing), as long as all required information is provided.
Include all exam booklets with extra sheets of paper in an Incident Report return
envelope (see page 68 of the 2018-19 AP Coordinator’s Manual for complete details).
Return all exam materials to secure storage until they are shipped back to the
AP Program. (See page 27 of the 2018-19 AP Coordinator’s Manual for more information
about secure storage.) Before storing materials, check the “School Use Only” section on
page 1 of the answer sheet and:
Fill in the appropriate section number circle in order to access a separate
AP Instructional Planning Report (for regularly scheduled exams only) or subject
score roster at the class section or teacher level. See “Post-Exam Activities” in the

by merely listing facts. You should present a cogent argument based on your critical analysis of the questions posed,
using appropriate psychological terminology.
1. Researchers dropped 200 identical wallets on sidewalks near a large university. Each wallet contained the name
and address of the owner and either a photograph of a baby, a photograph of a puppy, a photograph of a young
family, a photograph of an older couple, or no photograph. The researchers hypothesized that the type of
photograph left in the wallet would influence the rate of return. The wallets with a photograph of the baby and
the wallets with a photograph of the puppy were left early in the morning, the wallets with a photograph of the
young family were left in the afternoon, and the wallets with either no photograph or a photograph of an older
couple were left in the evening. Eighty-four of the 200 wallets (42%) were eventually mailed back to the owner,
as shown below.

A. Identify the following aspects of the study as described above.

• Control condition
• Dependent variable
• Confounding variable
B. How might cognitive dissonance explain why people returned the wallets?
C. How might individualistic culture explain why people did not return the wallets?
D. How might out-group bias explain the low rate of return for the wallets with the older couple’s photograph?
E. A survey was conducted in which individuals were asked, “Would you return a lost wallet that you found?”
Use social desirability bias to explain whether the percentage of individuals who answered “yes” to this
survey question would be higher, the same, or lower than the overall return rate (42%) in the study above.

2019 SCORING GUIDELINES
Question 1
Researchers dropped 200 identical wallets on sidewalks near a large university. Each wallet contained
the name and address of the owner and either a photograph of a baby, a photograph of a puppy, a photograph
of a young family, a photograph of an older couple, or no photograph. The researchers hypothesized that
the type of photograph left in the wallet would influence the rate of return. The wallets with a photograph
of the baby and the wallets with a photograph of the puppy were left early in the morning, the wallets with
a photograph of the young family were left in the afternoon, and the wallets with either no photograph
or a photograph of an older couple were left in the evening. Eighty-four of the 200 wallets (42%) were
eventually mailed back to the owner, as shown below.

Return Rate 80% 65% 47% 10% 5%

E. A survey was conducted in which individuals were asked, “Would you return a lost wallet that you
found?” Use social desirability bias to explain whether the percentage of individuals who answered
“yes” to this survey question would be higher, the same, or lower than the overall return rate (42%)
in the study above.
General Considerations
1. Answers should be presented in sentences and must be cogent enough for the meaning of the response
to come through. Spelling and grammatical mistakes do not reduce the score of a response, but spelling
must be close enough that the reader is convinced of the word.
2. Do not score any notes made on the question section of the booklet. Score only what has been written
in the blanks provided in the booklet.
3. Definitions alone will not score, but they may be used to enhance the application.
4. Within a point, a student will not be penalized for misinformation unless it directly contradicts
correct information that would otherwise have scored a point. A correct application with an incorrect
definition is not considered a direct contradiction and should score the point.
5. Rubric examples provided for each point are not to be considered exhaustive.
6. Responses that simply parrot or repeat the terms from the question will not score.
7. A response can score a point only if it clearly conveys what part of the question is being answered.
It is possible to infer what part of the question is being answered if it is consistent with the order of
the question.

Question 1 (continued)
Point 1: Control condition

Response must include text referring to the wallet without a photograph being the control condition.
• Score: “The control condition in this experiment was no photograph in the wallet.”
• Score: “The control condition is what receives no treatment or manipulation. In the experiment,
the wallet with no picture is the control because it received no treatment/picture”
• Do NOT score references to procedures that reflect other ways that the researcher may exert control
over the procedures, including experimental control.
Point 2: Dependent variable

Response must include text about rate of return of the wallets or the quantity/percentage of returned wallets.
• Score: “The dependent variable is the rate of return (%) for the wallets.”
• Score: “The dependent variable is what is measured by the researchers and thus is the percentage
of photos returned by each type of photo in the wallets.”
• Do NOT score references to how fast the wallets were returned.
• Do NOT score references to the independent variable.
Point 3: Confounding variable

Response must include text about the fact that the wallets with the different photographs were left at different
times of day.
• Score: “The confounding variable is the time of day that the wallets were dropped.”
• Score: “Confounding variable is an uncontrolled variable that would mess up the experiment. In this
case, time of day the wallet was dropped off is a confounding variable because people might be more
willing to take a wallet under cover of darkness.”
• Score: “The confounding variable is time, either they dropped off the wallets in the morning, evening,
or the afternoon. This is a changing variable that could possibly have played an influence in the study
but is not the independent variable.”
• Do NOT score references to time alone, unless it illustrates that time of day varied in tandem with
the independent variable.
Point 4: Cognitive dissonance

Response must include text that returning the wallets is an attempt to reduce the tension or anxiety caused
by conflicting personal beliefs or actions about whether or not to keep the wallet.
• Score: “Cognitive dissonance can explain the reasoning of people returning the wallets because
of tension caused by the misalignment of actions and thinking. They think they are a good person
and taking the wallet would not match the behavior of a good person, so they return the wallet to ease
their tension.”
• Score: “Cognitive dissonance is when someone has two beliefs that contradict each other. This causes
discomfort, which leads to someone to either change their behavior or their reasoning. If the person
who found the wallet and wanted to keep the money but felt it was morally correct to return it, they
would return the wallet to make themselves feel better.”
• Do NOT score references to emotion alone, unless it is clear that the feelings are caused by an internal
conflict between beliefs and behavior.
• Do NOT score references to empathy as reasons for returning the wallet.

Point 5: Individualistic culture

Response must include text about how individualistic culture, with its the emphasis on the self and one’s
own goals, would make one less likely to return the wallet.
• Score: “Individualistic culture contributes to the reason why some may not have returned the wallet
because the idea of individualistic culture is that one’s self should be put before anyone else.”
• Score: “Individualistic cultures describe how an individual’s choices should be self-serving first.
Thus, some people would not return the wallet because it benefits them personally. ”
• Do NOT score references to collectivistic culture alone.
Point 6: Out-group bias

Response must include text about the people picking up the wallets are likely to be young. Because the photo
is of an older couple, it is less likely they would return the wallet for a member of a different group.
• Score: “Outgroup-bias is a bias against ‘them,’ the people who are not a part of our in-group.
This explains the low rate of return for the wallets with the older couple because it is unlikely that
they are members of the in-group typically found on a university campus.”
• Score: “The people who found the wallet are most likely to be college students and probably did
not feel obligated to return a wallet belonging to an older couple that is not part of their group
(younger people). These younger people could not connect to the older people since they are not
the same or even similar to them.”
• Do NOT score references to prejudice or simple dislike of the group shown in the photo.
• Do NOT score references to in-group bias alone.
Point 7: Social Desirability Bias

Response must include text that clearly refers to survey responses being higher than the actual return rate
because the respondent wants to seem positive to others.
• Score: “When using the social desirability bias as a factor, people will choose an option that is more
in tune with societal norms. The percentage of people saying they would return the wallets will be
higher than actually returned in the experiment.”
• Score: “In this survey, more people would respond ‘yes’ to the wallet question because in our society
the socially acceptable thing to do is to return the wallet.”
• Score: “If the survey was conducted where keeping the wallet was valued more than returning it,
the social desirability effect may encourage more people to say ‘no’ in order to fit in with a tough crowd
that they are trying to impress.”
• Note: Student responses could indicate the survey response rates as lower or the same as long as it
is adequately justified in a way that is consistent with social desirability.
• Do NOT score references to the experiment using the lost wallet procedure alone.

Question 2
Purvik and Nisha spent a summer day at a popular amusement park with friends. They rode roller coasters,
ate cotton candy, and played carnival games to win prizes. Explain how each of the following might have
played a role in their day.
• Amygdala
• Arousal theory
• Motion parallax
• Taste aversion
General Considerations
1. Answers should be presented in sentences and must be cogent enough for the meaning of the response
to come through. Spelling and grammatical mistakes do not reduce the score of a response, but spelling
must be close enough that the reader is convinced of the word.
2. Do not score any notes made on the question section of the booklet. Score only what has been written

7. A response can score a point only if it clearly conveys what part of the question is being answered.
It is possible to infer what part of the question is being answered if it is consistent with the order
of the question.
Point 1: Amygdala
Response must indicate a specific emotion related to, or synonymous with, fear or aggression.
• Score: “The amygdala could have played a role in their day when Nisha was afraid
to go on roller coasters.”
• Score: “Purvik and Nisha attempted to win a prize from the carnival game, but when they failed
their amygdala initiated feelings of anger.”
• Do Not Score: “Their amygdalas could have been used when they were happy to eat because
the amygdala controls emotion.”
Point 2: Approach-approach Conflict

Response must indicate a conflict between two possibilities that are both seen as positive.
• Score: “Purvik only has time for one more roller coaster so he must decide between riding
his favorite roller coaster or the new roller coaster he was excited to ride.”
• Score: “Purvik and Nisha must make a decision whether to eat yummy cotton candy
or delicious ice cream.”
• Note: Assume that choices are positive unless there is a clear indication that one of the options
is bad/negative.

Point 3: Arousal Theory

Response must indicate that Purvik or Nisha is motivated to do something in order to reach their preferred
or optimal level of arousal, or their physiological state impacts performance.
Pathways to score may include any of the following:
Motivation Impacts Arousal Level of Arousal Impacts Performance

People are motivated to engage in a given Moderate level of arousal leads to the highest
behavior to raise or lower their arousal levels. level of performance.
Low levels of arousal would lead to the best
performance on new or complex tasks.
High levels of arousal would lead to better
performance on easier or well-rehearsed tasks.
Score: “Purvik goes on roller coasters to get an Score: “Nisha would perform better at a new
adrenaline rush.” carnival game if she was not was too calm but
not too nervous.”
Point 4: Informational Social Influence

Response must indicate a change in attitude or behavior because a person accepts someone else`s
rationale/justification. Response must go beyond just fitting in or doing something because others are doing
it. This is in order to differentiate from normative social influence.
• Score: “If someone came up to Nisha and told her a specific ride was unsafe, Nisha wouldn`t want to go
on the ride because she would assume the stranger is correct about the ride.”
• Score: “If Nisha and Purvik are trying to choose which line to join to enter a ride, they follow the season
tickets holders, assuming they know the best way to navigate the park.”
Point 5: Motion Parallax

Response must indicate that individuals perceive close objects moving faster or in the opposite direction,
or distant objects moving slowly or in the same direction.
• Score: “Motion parallax would have helped them perceive depth while riding the roller coaster
as distant objects would have moved by more slowly.”
• Score: “As Purvik and Nisha are riding roller coasters, objects that are closer (the safety fence)
to them will appear to move faster across their field of vision than objects that are further in the
distance (cars in the parking lot).”
Point 6: Taste Aversion

Response must indicate that the person associates ingesting a certain food with feeling ill/sick,
and subsequently they are likely to have a negative response or avoid the food in the future.
• Score: “If Purvik or Nisha eats something that makes them sick that day, they will avoid that thing
in the future.”
• Score: “If Purvik or Nisha eats something that has made them sick in the past, such as a hot dog,
they are likely to avoid it at the amusement park.”

Point 7: Vestibular Sense

Response must include maintaining balance, coordination, equilibrium, or feeling dizzy and disorientated.
• Score: “Purvik rides a roller coaster and then feels dizzy.”
• Score: “Typically, we use our semicircular canals for our sense of balance and orientation, when
flipped upside down on a roller coaster, we rely on our vestibular sense to tell us that our feet should
not be above our head.“
