Order Description
In this unit, you will choose a published research study on a topic of interest to you from the professional psychological literature. The study you select will become the focus of your scientific merit paper that you submit at the end of this course. Make sure you choose a research study from the professional psychological literature on either a topic of interest to you or a topic on which you might be interested in doing further research.
The purpose of this assignment is to demonstrate your understanding of the elements of research methods and good research design.
Choose a study that is either quantitative or qualitative. The study should meet the following criteria:

It is a primary research study. Studies detailing meta-analyses, theoretical proposals, or opinion papers are not appropriate for this project.
