The following resources will be useful in completing your report:<\/p>\n
An abstract presents a short summary of your completed research. Remember to include all relevant information but also to keep your abstract succinct and stick to the suggested word limit (between 100\u2013150 words).<\/p>\n
As this is the first mini project report on DE200, the module team have provided below a list of topic-based information to include in the Introduction to your report, in the order in which it should appear. Remember, your introduction should be written in prose and serve as a justification for your research. In this case, you should:<\/p>\n
1. It is <\/span>essential<\/span> <\/span>that you start by defining change blindness, using Section 3 of <\/span>Book 2, Chapter 3<\/a>.<\/p>\n 2. Outline key research on change blindness using Sections 3.2 and 3.3 of the chapter You should draw upon:<\/p>\n In addition, you may well wish to draw upon one or more of the following sources. In doing so, you need to balance the essential requirement to provide a background to and rationale for the current experiment, with the need to write concisely and clearly.<\/p>\n Remember that you also need to include research from at least two independently sourced, peer-reviewed journal articles. These additional articles should ideally be integrated into your Introduction and revisited in the Discussion. It is not conventional to first mention such articles in the Discussion unless they explain an unexpected result.<\/p>\n 3. Explain the particular issue examined in the current study.<\/p>\n 4. Formally state your hypothesis or research question. Importantly, your introduction should finish with a statement of the hypothesis for your study.<\/p>\n As part of TMA 02, you will be given a data set that contains data from <\/span>250<\/span> <\/span>participants who completed the experiment you took part in. You need to write up your report (including the Methods section) as if you collected all of this data yourself. This means that your Participants section should refer to information about all of the participants in your data set as if you recruited them yourself from the DE200 cohort.<\/p>\n Likewise, your Procedure section should describe what steps all of the participants in your data set went through when completing the study, not just what your particular participant did. Remember, this section should contain enough relevant information to allow other researchers to replicate the study. <\/span> Please make sure that you observe the conventional structure for method sections: design, participants, materials and procedure.<\/p>\n Before you write up your results you will need to have carried out your Analysis. Details of how to do this in SPSS are given in <\/span>Week 11<\/a>, which also discusses how to interpret the results from an ANOVA.<\/p>\n In <\/span>Week 14<\/a>, you are given an exercise (in task 4) to try your hand at writing a results section. When you have done so a model answer is revealed. This exercise also provides a model of how to write up your TMA 02 results, indicating how your results section might be structured and what information you need to include.<\/p>\n Some material for writing up your discussion can be found in <\/span>Week 14<\/a>. This highlights the purpose of a discussion and emphasises the need for <\/span>critical evaluation<\/a>. To recap, your discussion should address the following issues in order:<\/p>\n Relevant materials The following resources will be useful in completing your report: Book 2, Chapter 3 provide a useful background on research into change blindness. Book 2, Chapter 2 may also be useful, particularly the discussion on different models of attention. You will need to identify a minimum of two relevant peer-reviewed psychology journal articles that you have found […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"disciplines":[7],"paper_types":[],"tagged":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.writemyessays.app\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/questions\/4380"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.writemyessays.app\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/questions"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.writemyessays.app\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/questions"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.writemyessays.app\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.writemyessays.app\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4380"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.writemyessays.app\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/questions\/4380\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.writemyessays.app\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4380"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"disciplines","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.writemyessays.app\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/disciplines?post=4380"},{"taxonomy":"paper_types","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.writemyessays.app\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/paper_types?post=4380"},{"taxonomy":"tagged","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.writemyessays.app\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tagged?post=4380"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n
