Riassunto

The Third Edition of the Lab Manual for Psychological Research by Dawn M. McBride and J. Cooper Cutting is designed to present students with multiple opportunities to test their knowledge of the concepts they've learned in a research methods course. The manual contains exercises that connect to specific concepts in the course, exercises geared toward the development of a research project, APA style exercises that become progressively more complex, and instruction on how to avoid plagiarism. This lab manual supplies instructors many exercises on various aspects of a methods course to assign to students. Assignments that instructors choose not to include as required can be used as study aids for students. Packed full of useful exercises, checklists, and how-to sections, this robust lab manual gives students hands-on guidance and practice conducting their own psychological research projects.
