The final paper in this course is a research proposal of an original factorial design study on any topic in<\/p>\n

Psychology. The goals of the paper are to demonstrate your ability to:\n<\/div>\n
1. select, understand and explain 2 research articles from the Psychology literature,\n<\/div>\n
2. formulate an original research idea based on those articles and\n<\/div>\n
3. design a 2 x 2 factorial design.\n<\/div>\n
Your design must include at least 1 IV that is manipulated \u2013 the other may be a participant-variable or\n<\/div>\n
a second manipulated variable.\n<\/div>\n
Write this as if it were a grant proposal \u2013 convince reviewers that your project is worth their grant money.\n<\/div>\n
Introduction\n<\/div>\n
Define & describe the topic of your proposal. This must be based on the literature.\n<\/div>\n
Summarize two research articles that are related to your topic. Focus on information from the articles\n<\/div>\n
that is directly related to your proposal.\n<\/div>\n
State the purpose of your study.\n<\/div>\n
Explain the rationale for your study, based on the literature. How did the findings or ideas in these\n<\/div>\n
articles lead to your proposed study?\n<\/div>\n
Briefly explain your method being sure to include descriptions of both independent variables and the\n<\/div>\n
dependent variable.\n<\/div>\n
State your hypotheses – you must predict an interaction and depending on the interaction, you may\n<\/div>\n
also have a main effect.\n<\/div>\n
Method\n<\/div>\n
Participants\n<\/div>\n
Describe who would be in the study, the number of participants you think you would need to have\n<\/div>\n
enough power in the design and any restrictions on who could be in the study.\n<\/div>\n
Materials\n<\/div>\n
Describe in detail how you would operationally define your variables. This must be as detailed as if you\n<\/div>\n
were actually going to carry out the study. If it is appropriate, find a scale or measure in the literature\n<\/div>\n
to measure your dependent variable instead of creating one.\n<\/div>\n
Procedure\n<\/div>\n
Describe the proposed design and explain step-by-step what participants would do in your study.\n<\/div>\n
Results\n<\/div>\n
You will not have any actual data to analyze, but you need to explain how it would be done.\n<\/div>\n
Operationally define your dependent variable \u2013 explain the possible range of scores and if appropriate,\n<\/div>\n
explain how you would measure reliability.\n<\/div>\n
Explain how you would test your hypotheses (using a 2 x 2 ANOVA) and the results you would expect if\n<\/div>\n
your hypotheses were supported.\n<\/div>\n
Be sure to mention the Figure and include the Figure after the Reference page.\n<\/div>\n
Discussion\n<\/div>\n
Re-state the purpose of your experiment and the hypotheses.\n<\/div>\n
Explain how you would interpret your findings if your hypotheses were supported.\n<\/div>\n
Discuss any limitations with the research.\n<\/div>\n
End with the conclusion you would draw from your study assuming it was successful.The final paper in this course is a research proposal of an original factorial design study on any topic in\n<\/div>\n

Why do I need a cup of coffee before I do schoolwork?\n<\/div>\n
Research proposal: The effect of caffeine and stress on college students memories\/ brain function (While taking exams)\n<\/div>\n
Independent variable= would be caffeine (different drinks with different caffeine and levels of caffeine) and stress (Low or high levels of stress)\n<\/div>\n
Dependent variable= would be memory recall\n<\/div>\n
Collage students ca\n<\/div>\n
Introduction- college students have a lot of stress and use caffeine to help study and work. Does it really help?\n<\/div>\n
College student can become overwhelmed and str\n<\/div>\n
Have you ever felt stressed out and\n<\/div>\n
College students have alot of stress and pressure to succeed academically. Because of this many collage tsudents will stay up late, drink caffein to study, but Does it really help become stressed and turn to caffeine to help. Deos caffeine really help you styd or does it add to the stress?\n<\/div>\n
Does stress affect memory\u2026\n<\/div>\n
We will get 100 students to come be a part of the experiment and tell them if they participate they will get a free coffee.\n<\/div>\n
100 college students participant and they will split into 2 groups\n<\/div>\n
One group will get high caffeine and the other will get low caffeine\n<\/div>\n
For example, one group might get a high levels of caffeine and have high levels of stress\n<\/div>\n
And another group might get low levels of caffeine and experience low stress\n<\/div>\n
Then they will have to take an exam that has to recall memory and what they score on the exam would measure the effects of caffeine and stress on the memory of college students.\n<\/div>\n
