General Psychology Paper: Psychological Science in Everyday Life<\/strong><\/p>\n

Overview: One of psychology\u2019s claims to fame is that psychological information can be applied to better understand and help people\u2019s everyday lives. For this paper, you will have the opportunity to explore a topic in psychology that has such implications, research it in more detail, and consider how this information can be applied.<\/strong>

<\/p>\n

1. <\/span><\/strong>Please choose one topic from the list below. Each topic is based on material discussed in the respective modules.<\/p>\n

2. <\/span><\/strong>Research your topic. Start by reading the module content and note any references in the module. Then, find websites, articles, and\/or books on your topic. Your research must include at least 4 articles or books. That is, websites can be very helpful and informative, but your final paper must include full articles (whether from the internet or elsewhere) or books on the topic. Sources should be reputable and consistent with what you learned in the module as well as other sources. GoogleScholar and PDF articles from the internet can be helpful resources.<\/p>\n

After you\u2019ve read up on the topic, you can then search more academic sources such as through GoogleScholar or academic websites (such as hospitals and research institutions) that might have articles and reports available.<\/li>\n
    2. Each topic on the list does have information that you can find online as well as in print. If, for whatever reason, you have trouble locating this information, you may want to switch topics.<\/li>\n
    3. Make sure you use good search terms when trying to find articles. You may want to start broad (for example, \u201cBystander effect\u201d) and then narrow to your particular area.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      3. <\/strong>Each topic has an application component. Some suggestions for application can be researched, but you will also need to come up with your own ideas. You may want to jot down notes as you research your topic so that you can come to your own conclusions.<\/span><\/p>\n

      4. <\/strong>Write the paper. Be sure to include all components from the questions above for your topic. The paper should be written in essay format (not an outline), in 12-point font, and double-spaced. Be sure to edit carefully before submitting the paper.
