Your task for this paper is to design a correlational or experimental psychology study that addresses a method for either measuring or reducing prejudice. (Note: You will not carry out this study, just propose a design). This paper should be approximately six pages long, although an extra page in either direction is not a big deal. The paper needs to be written in APA style and include a title page, abstract, and introduction (also known as a literature review) with at least three peer-reviewed journal article references which ends with an original hypothesis to test, a methods section where you explain the design of your study, and a reference section. Please do not include any type of results – this assignment is just to complete a study design and explain why the design is justified given prior research. a. I strongly encourage you to take drafts of your reports to the Writing Tutors at Academic Services (see https://www.nova.edu/tutoring-testing/index.html). Because this is a college course, grammatically correct writing is expected. b. This paper needs to be an EXPERIMENT or CORRELATIONAL STUDY with a testable hypothesis. The paper should not be written about an observational study. c. This paper needs to be in APA style. You should have the American Psychological Association Publication Manual as your guide. You can also use some of the information on the APA style website at . (see the APA PowerPoint slides) d. Of course, you must not plagiarize in this paper. It is your responsibility to know what plagiarism is and avoid doing it; however, one quick tip is that whenever you read information from somewhere else, you need to give that author(s) credit, right at that point in the paper, so that the reader knows exactly where you got your information.
