CH 1 & 2 - Unit 1 - History/Evolution of Psychology & Research Methods
And begin CH 3 - Biological Bases of Behavior
WEEK AT A GLANCE:
            ***DO NOW QUESTIONS NEED TO BE COMPLETED ON SCHOOLOGY BY 3 PM***
MON - DO NOW: Independent & Dependent Variable in Research Study on Schoology.
Be sure to do the practice quiz multiple choice questions on AP Classroom to prepare for the Test
Review Research Methods - Experimentation

TUE - DO NOW: Random Assignment & Statistical Significance in Research Study on Schoology. 
Be sure to do the practice quiz multiple choice questions on AP Classroom to prepare for the Test
Correlational research can indicate if there is a relationship or association between two variables but cannot demonstrate cause & effect.
TEST On Schoology by 11:59 pm Tuesday. 

WED - DO NOW: 
How much does your biology impact your behavior?

THU - DO NOW: What is a neuron? How does it function? (Draw & label the diagram in your notes)

FRI - DO NOW: What is an “action potential” - how does that work? (with neural activity)

ASSIGNMENTS AT A GLANCE:

Quote: Quote: "In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on." - Robert Frost

Agenda:
1. DO NOW: 
A researcher designs a study to investigate the effect of feedback on perception of incomplete visual figures. Each participant stares at the center of a screen while the researcher briefly projects incomplete geometric figures one at a time at random positions on the screen. The participant's task is to identify each incomplete figure. One group of participants receives feedback on the accuracy of their responses. A second group does not. The researcher compares the mean number of figures correctly identified by the two groups. 

 

  • Identify the Independent Variable
  • Identify the Dependent Variable 

2. Notes, Discussion, Video

  • What is random assignment, how did it function in this experiment?

  • What is statistical significance and what could it mean about the results of this experiment?
