The present project is designed to improve undergraduate psychology students' research skills by introducing microcomputer research skills in the psychology curriculum. The specific goal is to teach undergraduate students how to employ microcomputers to increase their understanding of human mental behavior and psychological research. The major instruments to achieve this goal are ten Macintosh microcomputers and the software necessary to examine and understand the complexities of human mental behavior. Students are taught how to use microcomputers to answer research questions, specifically for the experimental study of human learning and memory. This project integrates the psychology curriculum, enabling students to link the statistical analysis of large data bases, stimulus presentation and experimental design into the existing academic framework.

本项目旨在通过在心理学课程中引入微型计算机研究技能来提高本科心理学学生的研究技能。具体目标是教本科生如何使用微型计算机，以增加他们对人类心理行为和心理学研究的理解。实现这一目标的主要工具是十台Macintosh微型计算机和必要的软件，用于检查和理解人类心理行为的复杂性。教授学生如何使用微型计算机回答研究问题，特别是关于人类学习和记忆的实验研究。该项目整合了心理学课程，使学生能够将大型数据库的统计分析、刺激演示和实验设计与现有的学术框架联系起来。
