SNHU Social Psychology Research Design Paper

 

I’m trying to study for my Psychology course and I need some help to understand this question.

Overview: For Final Project Part I in this course, you will examine research presented in the course for how social psychology has changed, and investigate a potential gap in the research that has not been addressed. This project will allow you to foster and improve your skills at reading, interpreting, and writing psychological works. It will also help you to learn your place within the field and how to combine both your personal perspective and opinions with established, empirical research to make original claims. The final project is meant for you to propose a hypothetical study. You are not and should not be conducting human subjects research for this project. It is not necessary for the purposes of this assignment. All human subjects research requires written approval from the SNHU COCE Institutional Review Board in order to protect the welfare and ensure ethical treatment of the subjects.

For this milestone, due in Module Five, you will participate in a discussion in which you develop a research study design in preparation for your final research investigation. You will also assist your classmates in refining their own proposed study. The research design you complete for this milestone will build on the literature review you prepared as Milestone One in Module Three. These two components will then be polished for your final research investigation, due in Module Seven.

Prompt: First, review your initial thoughts on research design from the Module Two research design discussion and the information you compiled for the Research Gap Worksheet task in Module Four.

Next, submit your completed Research Gap Worksheet in the milestone discussion topic by Thursday. You will then engage in a discussion and critique the advantages and disadvantages of the research studies of your classmates, while also receiving feedback about your own proposed study. Consider particularly how your research will support further exploration of the topic of social psychology that you have been exploring and, in your initial post to the discussion, address the following:

Be sure

What research design are you proposing to address your research question? Explain your reasoning for choosing it. Why is it appropriate? How have you built upon the initial research design ideas you came up with in the Module Two discussion?
What new elements are you adding to your research design based on the Module Four Research Gap Worksheet activity?
How will your research design be implemented?

How will you account for any issues of ethics in your proposed research question?
