The question the researchers had was: What is the relationship between the type of cloth and the amount of dye it absorbs?
As a result of the experiment, the researchers found a recurring trend. As the naturality of the cloth increased, the color value increased. Wool and Cotton are both natural fibers, and consistently out ranked nylon and polyester, which are synthetic, as shown by the graph below.(All cloths were compared using the OA Color Scale)
Cotton had the darkest color value of all them, ranking an 8 on the color scale. A close follow up was wool, with a 6.5 on the color scale. Behind wool was polyester, with an underwhelming rank of a 3. In last place, there is the pathetic rank of 2, which belongs to nylon.
This experiment may not be very reliable as a reliable experiment would have 10,000 plus trials. This experiment only has 50 per variable, so it may not be very reliable. Many errors could surface when more trials are done, especially random errors that are normally eliminated through a large sample size.
