Research Paper Assignments

Research Paper #1:

Due: Wednesday October 25
A Survey of the Interests of General Psychology Students
The survey for this first research project has already been written for you. Each lab will be divided into 5 groups of 4-5 students. Each group will analyze ONE of the survey questions and write their first research paper based on it's analysis.

Go to research paper #1 for further instructions.


Research Paper #2:

Due: Wednesday November 29
The relationship between...A correlational study
For this study each student group will write their own survey and administer it to their lab groups. We will build on the first research paper by adding actual correlation coefficients in this paper.

Instructions for paper 2 are the same as for paper 1 except: You must have three references (introduction and discussion), add a correlation coefficient (Pearson r) - make sure that your paper reads like a correlational study instead of paper 1, which was descriptive research!! Also- we expect that you won't make the same errors that you made last time - grading will be tougher!
