In a study, a group of college students was asked to view different advertisements for a certain product. After having seen the ads, the men in the group said that they were more likely to buy the product than they were before they saw the ads, and the women said that they were not more or less likely to buy the product than before they saw the ads. Women, then, are less easily influenced by advertisements than are men.
Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the conclusion above?
(A) The average woman shops more frequently than does the average man.
(B) When the study was repeated using a different group of students, only half of the men said that they were more likely to buy the product after having seen the ads.
(C) Studies have shown that older men respond more positively to advertisements than do younger men.
(D) The creators of the advertisements shown to the students were all women.
(E) The product for which the students viewed the advertisements is used almost exclusively by men.
Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the conclusion above?
(A) The average woman shops more frequently than does the average man.
(B) When the study was repeated using a different group of students, only half of the men said that they were more likely to buy the product after having seen the ads.
(C) Studies have shown that older men respond more positively to advertisements than do younger men.
(D) The creators of the advertisements shown to the students were all women.
(E) The product for which the students viewed the advertisements is used almost exclusively by men.
