Design your own research study using the scientific method by following these steps:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Create a <\/span>hypothesis<\/strong> <\/span>based on a theory that you have about human behavior.<\/li>\n
  2. What <\/span>research method <\/span><\/strong>will you use and why? For example, descriptive (case study, survey, archival research), experiment, correlational design, etc.<\/li>\n
  3. Who will your <\/span>participants<\/strong> <\/span>be (quantity and demographic) and how will you <\/span>recruit<\/strong> <\/span>them?<\/li>\n
  4. Decide what would be the best way to <\/span>collect your data<\/strong> <\/span>to test your hypothesis.<\/li>\n
  5. What <\/span>ethical consideration<\/strong>s must be made to keep your research ethically sound?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Write out your responses in APA format. <\/span>Your completed assignment should be approximately 250 words in length. Be sure to use information from the readings and course material to support your responses.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
