Abnormal Psychology

ETA: CLASS IS NOW CLOSED.

"Okay, today's a free period. Well, sort of free. Discuss your experiments, work on your tasks, get stuff done. Like, say, your make-up homework? The stuff that's due December 13th. I'll be available for questions."

"And guys? Some of you are seriously going to fail this class if you don't get it in gear. Check the approved proposals if you got yours in last week and see if it was added to the list. If not, I need either a proposal or a revision."

"James Sawyer, Bagoas Bontecou? You guys didn't get me anything on your proposal, and you're seriously behind on your final projects. It's a cumulative grade, so you should use this class time wisely. You're both in for another detention this weekend."



Class Notes

The Scientific Method
1. Observation and description of a phenomenon or group of phenomena.
2. Formulation of an hypothesis to explain the phenomena.
3. Use of the hypothesis to predict the existence of other phenomena, or to predict quantitatively the results of new observations.
4. Performance of experimental tests of the predictions by several independent experimenters and properly performed experiments.

Optional Extra Credit
Write a 100 word essay on a famous psychologist or psychiatrist and his or her contribution to the field. If you have done this already as your alternate assignment for the "What I Learned From The Class Project" essay, then write a 100 word essay on a particular field of psychology. Please see me if you have a question about what is or is not acceptable here. You may only do one essay for extra credit, not both.

Please remember that electronic participation counts as extra credit if you were in class that day and participated.

James, Paige - I need notes from your teachers and a copy of your class schedules. Just have them drop me an e-mail.
