I have found most of the variables in this project, yet I'm still looking for some. I have the following:
• Amount of Sleep
• Correctness of the test
• What was actually consumed
• Weather
• Time Arrived at school
Does anyone know any others?
Thanks,
Alexiel

Re: Breakfast-Schoolwork correlation
Can you tell us a little more about your project? I'm assuming you are correlating performance on a test with whether or not students ate breakfast?
Off the top of my head:
1. How much the student studied.
2. The typical grades that student gets in that subject.
3. Difficulty of test.

Re: Breakfast-Schoolwork correlation
Hi,
Another thing you might want to consider is how much kids are eating for breakfast. For example, eating half a Pop-Tart might count as breakfast for some people, but how does that compare to eating something more filling like a bowl of oatmeal or peanut butter toast? Other than that, your variables and the ones suggested look great!
Good luck!
