So what do I have to do?
Write a 1150 word, APA formatted research report on the study which was done in your Week 2 tutorial. You do not
have to write a Method section, you have been given a method section (and do not include it in your submitted
report). You must write an Introduction section, a Results section, a Discussion section, a References section, and an
Abstract. Even though you were a participant in the study, you write the study as if you were the researcher, and you
are reporting your results (and arguing for your interpretation of them).
In addition to your submission of your final research report, you are also required to submit the notes you make from
your research (explained in the Week 4 tutorial content), and a draft/plan of your work in progress (due in the Week
6 tutorial).
For this assignment, you are not permitted to use assistive technology of any kind
You are not permitted to use software such as Translation software, Grammarly, Quillbot, Writefull, Open AI,
ChatGPT, or any other software which transforms your own natural writing into something else, or generates or
transforms writing from other sources.
Aside from possible serious actions and penalties resulting from academic misconduct, writing which is not your
own does not attract marks.
If I write my report on another study, or a study I run myself, will I get any marks for it?
No.
I missed my week 2 tutorial, does that matter?
You missed being a participant in the study. To write your report you need to pretend you are the researcher, and
you will be given the group data of those who did participate. Don't stress, catch up.
What are the learning outcomes of this assessment?
You understand how to format and write a research report in APA format
You are able to understand a unique research study you were a participant in by engaging with its novel
method and previous literature in the field (starting with the starter reference)
You can use PsycINFO to locate additional references relevant to the topic of the report
Note importantly that these learning outcomes relate specifically to practical skills in writing and research. They are
not connected to the knowledge based learning outcomes in lectures. Your main support for writing and research
comes from the tutorial program and associated materials.
