This course provides training in the logic and techniques of psychological research so as to provide students with experience in the design of psychology experiments and interpretation of results. Topics include experimental design and control, library research, quantitative treatment of data, graphical presentation of results, and clarity of scientific writing.

Each student also completes an independent research project. Limited to 15 students. PREREQ: Psych 100B and 300. Declared P&BS majors will have priority.
