Research a Researcher

Oftentimes, when moving on to a 4 year university, psychology students join research labs to gain research experience. In this assignment you will look at professors conducting research you would be interested in enough to join their lab at the school(s) you hope to transfer to. List your top 3 choices for professors, what school(s) they teach at, and explain why you chose them. This is a TOTAL of 3 professors, regardless of where they teach (not 3 per school).

Of those 3 professors, find a research article published by one them and read it. Provide a full apa citation and minimum one page review of the article. What was the research about? How was it conducted? Who were the participants (or animals)? What were the findings (what would the main summary argument be)? Provide your thoughts on this study (the critical reading questions type section). Please upload a copy of the research article and the written assignment by the due date.

You can leave a response, or trackback from your own site.
