Research Methods in Psychology (PSH 301) Class Notes offers a comprehensive set of lecture notes from a Grade A student for the fall 2023 semester at SUNY Brockport. This 19-page document serves as an essential resource for students enrolled in the Research Methods in Psychology course, a core component of the psychology curriculum that emphasizes rigorous academic writing and research skills.
The course is designed to equip students with the skills necessary to apply the scientific method to behavioral research, enabling them to pose questions, conduct studies, and critically analyze both problems and findings in the field of psychology. The notes cover detailed methodologies, statistical tools, and experimental designs that are fundamental for conducting empirical research. Additionally, this writing-intensive course requires students to compose a major research paper, or a series of smaller papers, providing them with hands-on experience in organizing, developing, and refining scholarly articles.
These notes not only outline the technical content of the course but also offer guidance on the research and writing process, including how to structure an academic paper, integrate sources, and articulate arguments effectively. The inclusion of feedback mechanisms within the course structure, as detailed in the notes, shows how students can improve and refine their writing and research techniques based on instructor and peer reviews. This makes the notes invaluable for any psychology student looking to enhance their understanding of research methods and improve their academic writing skills.
