Chocolate is obtained from cacao beans. It is rich in flavanols, which fall in the class of flavonoids. Flavanoids are characterized as having significant antioxidant activity; therefore, this suggests chocolate is beneficial to human health. Chocolate has been used in the treatment of a variety of health issues from ancient times, and recent research has illustrated that it may be effective in treating memory-related diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (Prastowo, Kristanto, & Sasmita, 2015). There is a positive correlation between chocolate intake and improvement of working memory. In this context, memory is considered to be a combination of short-term memory, attention, and concentration. Moreover, memory is influenced by diet, age, gender, and sleep quality (Prastowo et al., 2015). In a study conducted in Jones and Wilson 2011, the results revealed that eating chocolate two hours before taking math tests considerably improved the scores. Although there is a vast literature on the impact of eating chocolate on cognitive function, few studies have compared the effect of eating chocolate on the memory of different genders (Wong, Hideki, Anderson, & Skaarsgard, 2009). The influence of chocolate on memory between genders is thus not well understood. To fill this gap, the present study was conducted to examine whether chocolate intake is linked to higher improved cognitive function in women than in men. Hypothesis The null hypothesis, H0 , states that; There is no significant difference in working memory between males and females a short period after eating chocolate. Previous studies indicate that chocolate is more likely to improve the memory of females as compared to that of males; thus, the hypothesis is one-tailed. Method Design This was an experimental study of pre and post-test design with controls. The participants were randomly selected from Ashford University’s population, separated into genders, and each given six bars of chocolate to eat. They were later given a digit span test (DST) to measure their working memory. In this study, the independent variable (IV) was chocolate intake, while the dependent variable (DV) was the effect of chocolate on the memory of different genders. Participants The study sample consisted of 50 men and 50 women who were randomly selected from a larger population. Participants were randomly selected to avoid limitations of bias. All these individuals were current students at Ashford University. This study sample was chosen because the project was solely funded by the researcher, and the budget was minimal. Hence, it was the only best viable option. The participants were then further randomly divided into an experimental and control group of 50 each, in which either group consisted of an equal number of sexes. The subjects were well-informed on the procedures of the experiment and written informed consent was signed by each. It is essential to note that information regarding the elements and effect of the experiment was not stated to the participants to minimize bias. Procedure The simple randomization technique was used to divide the participants into two groups, that is, the control and treatment groups. Every group comprised 25 males and 25 females. Members in both groups received the
