Psychological Research Methods

This class gave me the necessary skills required to conduct social research to develop psychological research proposals. I learned the different research methods that can be used to record data and perform research, the steps in conducting research, and the components in writing a proposal. I felt very challenged in this class, but it was where I was able to put all my previous knowledge of research into good use. I learned to utilize different forms of testing. I came out of this class with a sense accomplishment for meeting the challenge and a new knowledge on performing research.

Below you can view the research proposal I write, and a downloadable version of it can be obtained by clicking on the title. The paper is a correlational study between satisfactory romantic relationships and self-esteem of adolescent women.
