Article- The Importance of Psychology.
Aims: The aim of this assignment is to draw your attention to the differences between scientific research reports and media focussed outputs. You will practice skills in critical evaluation and conduct an effective literature search for relevant articles.
Answer all questions-
1. Find a suitable article for the exercise (based on a published scientific report) that has clear relevance to the study of psychology and provide the web-link for the media article.
2. Provide the full APA style reference for the original scientific research report and copy the abstract below verbatim. If more than one article is referenced, provide just one. Upload this article with your assignment. You should upload the article as a separate PDF file in the "article upload" section of the turnitin link.
3. Discuss whether the media report represents a fair reflection of the scientific research. You should discuss which aspect of the experiment became the focus of the media report and why you think this was chosen as a topic of interest for the public.
4. Give one additional procedural aspect of the research and one additional piece of evidence reported in the scientific article that were not discussed in the media report. What are the implications of these aspects of the scientific study with respect to the theoretical topic in question and why do you think these were not mentioned in the media report?
5. Find one example of how the researchers sought to test an alternative explanation, or where they controlled for the effect of another variable(s). Describe this aspect of the research design and state how it bolstered the conclusions that they drew from the research.
6. Conduct a literature search to find one additional article that you think might be relevant to this topic. Give the full APA reference and, based on the abstract, state why you think this will be a relevant and important article to read.
