The scientific method allows us to pose questions, tests questions, and analyze results. Through
observation and research we begin to understand the world around us. Consider research you
have read about or been a part of and analyze the following in one page: was the scientific
method followed? How?
What pieces were or were not per of it? (Randomization, study type, placebos, etc.)
For the second part, present a research project you would like to propose in approximately one
page. How can it help us learn about basic principles of behavior?
How can you use the scientific method to find and address possible problems in your research
design?
