Project 3
Survey Says!
Each student is going to conduct their own research in the form of a survey. Surveys will need to be created and distributed online. Students will first create a testable psychological question of inquiry. For example, do adults who playing video games report being less stressed during shelter at home requirements? Students will then identify the target population, create a hypothesis, create 10 survey questions related to research inquiry, get subjects to take survey, gather results and provide analysis.
