PSYC 330 Foundations in Research Methods 1
This course introduces students to methods psychologists use to conduct research. Students will learn about the scientific method-the universal language of science-as well as how to form research questions and hypotheses, how to design and critique studies, how to analyze and interpret research data, and how to control variables. Students will learn about research methods in this course through performing research studies rather than simply reading about them. Prerequisites: WRIT 113, First-Year Academic Writing; PSYC 200 Introduction to Psychology; and have completed a minimum of three upper-division Psychology courses. Majors must pass the class with a grade of "C" or higher.
