TheRumor Chain activity

Dr. Antony randomly picked four volunteers to demonstrate this experiment. He told them a story and instructed them to pass on the story to the next person. The result became that there is a bit of a memory lost in each retelling:

1. Levelling: there was a simplification of material, some details were cut off
-The Hijacker was from “People revolution army”
-Angry passengers force the gun out of the hijacker.
-Radioing Bangkok on the event
-Hijacker was cut off
-From cockpit to pilot cabin

2. Sharpening: Only some high lights were pass on through out the story,
-Throwing the microphone,
-The Magnum gun
-Forcing the pilot to go to Cuba

3. Assimilation-> There has been a change of detail for better subjects by using their own background and knowledge.
-Two pilots,
- Hijackers to terrorist
