Psychology research study
Post Exam Board Poster Reassessment
The reassessment involves producing a Power Point presentation based on a psychological research study.
Your presentation should describe a single study from psychology, using the following format: Slide 1, summarise the background and aims of the research; Slide 2, key details on the method; Slide 3, main results and what they tell us about human behaviour; and Slide 4, include some comments on the strengths and limitations of the method adopted (e.g., can you think of what was good about the design and any inherent weaknesses). You may choose to discuss a study from the areas noted below (see recommended textbooks and lecture slides on blackboard and focus on what interests you the most).
If you have been offered one reassessment on the module, then you need only pick one topic and produce one powerpoint slide deck, but if you have been offered two reassessments then you need to produce two posters (based on two different topics).
If you are producing two posters, then these should be in the same powerpoint document as the link on blackboard will not allow you to upload two separate pieces of work.
You will NOT be required to present your poster in person. You must not duplicate a topic you have already covered in a previous poster.
CHOICE OF TOPICS (select 1 or 2)
Social Psychology, Cognitive Psychology, Physiological psychology
Developmental Psychology, Forensic Psychology, Sports Psychology, or Neuroscience.
This work should be uploaded to Turnitin via Blackboard (a paper copy is not required). Use the link for reassessment when uploading your summary.
