Integration of Basic Experimental and Multimedia Research Training in Psychology

这个项目将心理学的基础研究培训与学生参与分析压力和应对研究的多媒体项目结合在一起。基础心理学研究培训包括七门必修课和四门选修课。这些课程涉及的基础科学问题包括培训学生进行和解释数据的统计分析，利用适当的研究设计，发展批判性分析研究技能，以及发展完成独立和荣誉心理学研究的能力。学生完成一系列分级的越来越高级的数据分析和实验设计项目，这些项目符合能力增长计划，用于培训学生学习心理学的科学方法。多媒体项目包括一门必修课(人格理论)和四门选修课，在这些课程中，学生参与创建与压力、应对和情绪相关的概念的多媒体可视化。该项目对计算机实验室进行升级，以增强基础研究和多媒体培训的能力。这个项目允许学生继续开发项目，使他们能够可视化压力和应对的行为、生理和认知方面之间的交互作用。让学生参与多媒体项目试图建立在丘特的“2000课堂”模式的基础上，在这种模式下，学生直接体验和使用多媒体形式的课程材料，以增强主动性学习。

This project integrates basic research training in psychology with student involvement in multimedia projects that analyze stress and coping research. Basic psychology research training involves courses in seven required and four elective courses. Basic science issues addressed in these courses involve student training in conducting and interpreting statistical analysis of data, utilizing appropriate research designs, developing critical analysis research skills, and developing capabilities to complete independent and honors research in psychology. Students complete a graded series of increasingly advanced data analysis and experimental design projects that fit into a competency growth plan for training students in the scientific approach to psychology. Multimedia projects are located in one required course (theories of personality) and four elective courses in which students are involved in creating multimedia visualizations of concepts related to stress, coping, and emotion. This project upgrades the computer lab to enhance capabilities in both basic research and multimedia training. This project allows continued development of student projects that enables them to visualize the interactions among behavioral, physiological, and cognitive aspects of stress and coping. Involvement of students in multimedia projects attempts to build upon Chute's "Classroom 2000" model in which students directly experience and work with course materials in a multimedia format to enhance active learning.
