Investigating Psychology

This module will equip you with important practical skills and knowledge in conducting research in psychology such as: using different methods of data analysis from descriptive statistics through to inferential statistics, critically evaluating research and disseminating research findings through report writing and presentations. You will also discuss key research and theoretical issues surrounding some of these areas and learn to evaluate psychological literature. They will gain this knowledge through both lectures and laboratory classes.

Investigating Psychology runs in parallel with Understanding Psychology and the different components of conducting research will be expanded on in Part II.
