Basic Research Method (Psych 291), Fall 2018

Course Description (from syllabus)

Welcome to Psych 291! This course will cover the fundamentals of research design. For example, what factors do psychologists consider when designing a study? Learning about the research process will be beneficial for everyone in this class. Many of you will conduct research—perhaps as a research assistant, in a course (e.g., directed studies or a thesis), or in your future career. But even if you never actually conduct research, you will still read/hear about research throughout your life (e.g., through the media). Is it therefore important to learn how to critically examine research. A main objective of this course will be developing that skill.
