Objectives of the Course
|
The objectives of the course are to:
equip students with further and deeper knowledge on experimental research methods
enabling them to consider novel approaches with an intention to invent their own manipulations
|
|
Course Content
|
Being a critical research method in psychology, experiments allow researchers to gather scientific evidence on human behaviour. The course, therefore, initially reviews the steps and types of experimental designs in detail (e.g., within-subjects, between-subjects, and mixed designs) along with the sampling, controlling, and counterbalancing issues in experimental research. The course proceeds with the later phase that the students design, present, and discuss a new manipulation that they suggest for a research study using a type of experimental design.
