This course provides a hands-on introduction to psychological research in the domain of personality psychology. We will consider research methods, personality assessments, the intersection of personality and social psychology, and issues broadly relevant to psychological research. Students will work collaboratively in groups through all phases of a research project, including conducting a literature review, designing a study, receiving ethics approval, collecting data, conducting statistical analyses, and reporting the results. Projects will examine a topic within personality psychology and will be chosen by students in consultation with the professor.
This course is open to Juniors and Seniors.; Prereq: PSYCH-200 or PSYCH-204.
