RESEARCH STUDY PROPOSAL DRAFT INSTRUCTIONS

 

By the end of Week 4 of the course term, you will submit a draft of a research study proposal is due. You will not be conducting this research, just proposing it as a hypothetical study. You may use an existing published study from an academic journal article as a prototype example for developing your proposal, but the study method and focus of research you propose must be your own original research idea. The paper will consist of an Introduction, a Literature Review, an Hypothesis, and a Method section.

 

Your research study proposal draft will include:

 

An INTRODUCTION

 

                Topic overview

 

                 Research question

 

                Significance of this question to the field of study

 

  A LITERATURE REVIEW

 

 

 

                At least 4 brief summaries of other similar studies

 

                Wrap up with a formal hypothesis

 

What is a Lit Review?

 

  A brief review of the literature means that you will report (search some key words in the on-line library

 

  in Psych Abstract or some such area) on studies that are similar to the one you propose. This might

 

  include an old classic study that launched the field of study in your topic but should include some

 

  background studies and at least one rather recent study into the same area as yours. For this

 

  assignment, 4 or 5 quick reviews would suffice. The reviews are typically no more than a paragraph

 

  explaining in simple terms, who did the research (with the APA style “year” of the study in

 

  parentheses), what they were hoping to explore, and what the results of their study were.

 

  

 

An HYPOTHESIS

 

 

 

                A statement of what you expect will be the outcome of your study.

 

 

 

What is an Hypothesis?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At the conclusion of your review of the literature you will summarize your research idea and

 

  then state your hypothesis. A good proposal hypothesis should directly state, without

 

  reservations, the expectations of the study. For example, “Hypothesis: The experimental

 

  group will significantly improve their scores on the _____measure after viewing the role play

 

  of bullying behavior.” Or another example: “Hypothesis: Subjects will show decreased empathy

 

  on a survey of compassion and empathy for the learners that used the weakest excuses.”  

 

Or, “Hypothesis: There will be a significant difference between the groups with the

 

  experimental group having higher scores than the control group.”

 

 

 

A METHODS of Research Section

 

Detailed description of measuring devices for data collection device, survey, or measurement instrument

 

Subjects – study participants

 

Procedure – how the measures will be taken
