Abstract:

This course will introduce the student to research methodologies frequently used in the social sciences, and especially those used in the field of psychology.

The course will conclude with a section on experimental design. By the end of this course, the student should understand why research methodology is important in scientific research, be comfortable reading procedural and methodological sections of journal articles, and understand how to employ different research methods.
