The aim of this project is to establish a microcomputer laboratory in psychology in order to improve undergraduate students' research experiences. Due to the large number of students and the relatively small number of faculty members it has not been possible to give undergraduate students at Southeastern Louisiana University research experiences that they require if they are to gain an accurate appreciation of how research is conducted in psychology. There are two aspects to this project -- one for students in lower level psychology courses and one for students at the upper level. In the lower level courses, commercially available software packages allow students to conduct replications of some of the classic experiments in this discipline. In the upper level courses, microcomputers are being used in original research projects involving precise measurement and control. Many of the projects involve interfacing the microcomputer with experimental equipment already existing in the department. Students are introduced in the intermediate program to the process of delimiting questions, posing falsifiable hypotheses and designing tests of their validity. More advanced students are able to conduct individual research studies or to participate in faculty projects.

本项目的目的是在北京建立一个微机实验室。 心理学，以提高本科生的研究 经验由于学生人数众多， 少数教师，它一直不可能给 东南路易斯安那大学的本科生们 他们需要的经验，如果他们要获得准确的 对心理学研究如何进行的赞赏。 这个项目有两个方面--一个是针对低年级学生的 心理学课程和高年级学生的一门课程。 在 较低水平的课程，商业软件包， 学生进行重复的一些经典实验， 这个纪律。在高级课程中， 用于涉及精确测量的原始研究项目， 控制 许多项目涉及到与微型计算机的接口 实验设备已经存在于该部门。 在中级课程中，学生将被介绍到 界定问题，提出可证伪的假设和设计测试 他们的有效性。 更先进的学生能够进行 个人研究或参与教师项目。
