Today I participated in two psychology research studies which I need as extra credit and to fulfill a requirement for two different psychology classes I am taking this semester (14 & 121). The psychology department website explains this requirement:
Several courses offered in the Psychology Department require students to participate in research. Students enrolled in Psychology 1, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15 are required to earn 3 points of research credit as part of the course. Instructors in other courses may require students to earn research credit or offer extra credit for student research experience. Research credit may be earned through participating in a research study or writing reports about articles describing psychological research.
Some of the studies I have participated in have been very lengthy (an hour or more) and some have been short (30 minutes or less!). Some are surveys, whereas others require computer access or walking, pointing, etc. It's actually kind of fun to be a participant while receiving credit for it! You just have to be able to go on your own time and fit it into your schedule.
If you're interested in a psychology major, definitely check out the GWU psychology website at: http://www.gwu.edu/~psycdept/
Back to studying for my exams! :( Keep checking back!
