Task: Real-Life Creative Problem Solving
Come up with an original and creative solution for the following real-world problem:
In order to increase her job opportunities upon graduation, Joan decided to work as a research assistant with a faculty member in the psychology department during her junior and senior years. Joan was not sure who to work with, so she sought advice from the head of the department, Dr. Johnson. Dr. Johnson suggested that Joan work with his good friend, Dr. Bundt, since Dr. Bundt is well known in his field, has good job contacts, and has many other students working with him. After working with Dr. Bundt for two months, Joan has realized that she is not enjoying the job. The other students working with Dr. Bundt appear to be very happy, but Joan finds that she is not interested in the research project that she was assigned to work on. In addition, she finds that she has a lot of work to do that is very time consuming, with very little guidance provided on how to do what is required. Dr. Bundt himself turns out to be unfriendly and difficult to please. Joan is not sure what to do..

Response: Joan should quit and see if Mr. Johnson has any other suggestions. She might not necessarily hate psychology but just the specific person she is working under makes her lose the liking for the field.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should first go to Dr. Bundt and talk about solutions or ask if there is anyway things can be changed or different. If nothing is solved from this problem, then she should go higher up and speak to Dr. Johnson and ask for a new position under a new Dr.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: I'd ask my close friends and family about what I should do if I really valued a future in this career. I might also ask other mentors in the same field that I look up to on how to proceed.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 40

Response: Create a space where multiple research can take place so you aren't researching just one idea
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 40

Response: Joan should leave the team and find something that better suits her. She is not helping her future by doing poorly in an area as well as not learning
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should try her best to communicate politely to Dr.Bundt that she needs help and is having a difficult time. If continued she should report it to the department head, Dr.Johnson.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should quit
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 10

Response: Joan should drop this research position and search for another one. If she is truly unhappy in her position and wishes to be completing other work, she should try and obtain that other form of work as soon as possible
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should confer with her friends and peers about activities in which they participate which bring them joy. is her friend in greek life and enjoying it, does her friend work in a business club and feel passionate about it. Follow opportunities which spark interest and joy. Think back on courses from first 4-6 semesters and highlight which ones were impactful, find extracurriculars correlated to these. Furthermore, try to find engaging aspects of the research. if unable to do so, maybe reduce your hours or switch positions.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 40

Response: Joan should consult with the other research assistants who are helping Dr. Bundt and find out if they are truly happy in their position. If so, she should ask them for advice as to how to find enjoyment in the work.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: If I were Joan, I would first start looking for other faculty to work with and go see Dr. Johnson and ask if he has any other suggestions of who she could work with. If he has other opportunities, then I would take him up on that. Then I would tell Dr. Bundt that I enjoyed working with him, but his group was just not for me.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should go to her current psychology professor and ask if they have any other researcher to assist. Joan should switch to a new researcher because she will not get a job she likes if she is working for a research project she does not enjoy.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: The first thing you could try is to ask Dr. Bundt to further explain the project. If that doesn't work, you could also try to ask others who are also participating as they may have a better understanding of what is required.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: I believe that Joan should start looking for different opportunities that she knows will keep her interested & engaged in what she is planning to do in her future. If she remains in this position, her passion for the subject will begin to decrease. She should talk to Dr.Bundt, and allow him to understand her frustration so they can improve the environment or give her the clarity to move on.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: I think Joan should speak with Dr. Bundt first and work out her options. If she is still not enjoying her time in the lab, I think she should either find a new lab with a project that she enjoys or try another area of psychology that is not research.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should add her own twist to the project and when asked by Dr. Bundt why she devidated she should say that it is part of her interests and something that he has been avoiding listening to
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 40

Response: Joan should politely tell Dr. Bundt that she is not interested in this research and that she can succeed more if she does a research project she was actually interested in.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should create her own student research study.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: discuss with or interview the other students working under Dr. Bundt in order to get their perspective. If they seem happy then they may know a helpful way to deal with the work and difficulties that Joan had not discovered.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan could go to other advisors in the psychology department to talk about other options for research programs that she could participate in that would still give her credit and experience.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: maybe she could propose her own research project that she can lead on her own that she enjoys more.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: She should do what makes her happy: going back to Dr. Johnson. Even though it would be better to stay where she is she isn't getting anywhere with her current position.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should go back to Dr. Johnson and tell him about the situation. Maybe Dr. Johnson knows someone else who Joan can work with, or perhaps Dr. Johnson can go to Dr. Bundt and see what's going on. Joan should also go to the students and see how they really feel about Dr. Bundt and the research project.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: If I was Joan, I would try my absolute hardest to see if I could meet Dr. Bundt at some point to discuss and talk about his form of instruction and see if there is a way to get some 1-on-1 instruction.  If this is achieved, Joan will likely gain a better understanding of the job material and her performance on the project will be better and she will likely have to spend less time on the work.  If Dr. Bundt is really that unapproachable I would email him or give him a phone call and see if that changes anything.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: I believe it would be most beneficial for Joan to simply see if Dr. Bundt or Dr. Johnson has any other colleagues or other ways to get experience in the field. Basically, Joan might benefit from quitting and finding a different thing to do. If the field is still uninteresting, maybe try a different field of interest and see if that goes anywhere.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan simply could not be enjoying the field of psychology as much as she thought she would be.  Perhaps a solution to her problem would be to collaborate with a fellow peer and see if they can help make her project any more enjoyable, or even see if she can have a new approach to learning and exploring the topic.  Some people and personality types do not mix, making it harder to enjoy the task at hand.  If Joan can find some support in other people, she may become happier with herself and her choices.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should have a meeting with Dr. Bundt and express her emotions and how she is feeling. If he does not change his behaviors or attitudes toward Joan, she should see if she is able to switch who she works with or the research project she was assigned.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should reconsider is this is really what she wants to do with her life. also she could talk to Dr. bundt saying how she is overwhelmed with work and she feels treaded unfairly in her position.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should stage a family accident and tell Dr. Bundt that she is unable to continue her research due to familial priorities.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 50

Response: Joan should return to Dr. Johnson and reexamine what she wants to do for research. The fact that she is currently unhappy probably means that she should leave her current research with Dr. Bundt.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: what Joan can do is communicate and list out her concerns to Dr. Bundt and divide the workload evenly between the two of them. If that didn't work then she can send out her concern to Dr. Johnson to assign her new work that she might be interested in.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: First, Joan should ask the other students who work for Dr. Bundt if they feel the same way now or if they ever did how they overcame their feelings.  She should also talk to Dr. Bundt and ask for some more assistance on what she should be doing and/or she should ask for assignment to another project.  Joan could also actively search for another position, ask for a letter of recommendation for the work she has done with Dr. Bundt, and then finally, move on with her life.  It seems working with Dr. Bundt is not all Joan thought it would be, so she should move on to bigger and better things if it is not working out for her.  Joan needs to be her own advocate in this situation rather than stay where she is and be unhappy.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should quit and do what makes her happy.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 10

Response: Joan should talk to the other students individually to find out what each of them are doing for the research project. She then should ask Dr. Johnson for help.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should talk to Dr. Johnson again to tell him what is going on with Dr. Bundt. She should also talk to the other students because they may appear happy when they are actually feeling the same way that she is. If she decides to stay with him, she should tell him that she does not like the research project that she is doing. She should suggest which project she rather work on and if he does not like that, she should find someone else that she likes better.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should finish her project and gracefully thank Dr. Bundt for his time and quickly and smoothly exit the lab.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should get out of the job it if it not something of interest and not enjoyable.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 10

Response: Joan could first try and seek assistance from some of the other students that appear to enjoy the work. If she still likes this field of work and just not this particular project, she could try and make it through by talking to and communicating with the other students. And then when she is done she would have the job experience and made connections that may be useful in her future. She would also have learned what she does not like in this field and can avoid it in the future. However, two years is a long time and if it is really bad for her I think she could talk to the head of the department and tell him that it hasn‚Äôt been working for her. Since they are friends she does not have to tell him how Dr. Bundt is difficult and unfriendly. But she could ask Dr. Johnson's advice and see if switching is possible.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should express her concerns to Dr. Johnson and ask to switch labs
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: I believe that a creative solution to the problem would be for Joan to talk to Dr. Bundt about her issues in the class. Maybe she could ask for extended time to perform her research and see if he has office hours that she can attend for help. If this does not work out, I believe that Joan should find the job that is right for her. By not doing something she is interested in, it wastes her time because she then could be doing something that she actually enjoys doing.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should begin to look to would with another mentor who can match her learning and work style better. She can work simultaneously with both mentors to better understand. If this opportunity does not interest her also, she can look for other professions and workforce opportunities within her degree
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 40

Response: In Joan position, She should explain to Dr.Johnson her situation and ask if there is any other research projects that she could join.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: I would say, Joan should try to set aside time to talk with Dr. Bundt about what she is feeling in relation to how Dr. Bundt acts in a polite manner. This would be with the purpose of finding common ground with Dr. Bundt and get on a good and friendly path. The worst thing that happens is Dr. Bundt is rude or disrespectful, which then you could take the interaction to Dr. Johnson to sort things out. Then, regardless of the Dr. Bundt chat, Joan can schedule a meeting with Dr. Johnson to express how she is losing enjoyment in the job. This will at least get her on the right path instead of struggling in silence.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: She should do something that interests her and work with a more understanding individual.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan needs to interview for other jobs and quit this one.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should approach Dr. Bundt and talk to him about the situation. If that is not useful she should maybe consider trying to find another position elsewhere. If I were in that position I would go back to Dr. Johnson and see if he can line me up with another position elsewhere that I might actually enjoy.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: If Jane is qualified, Jane can switch colleges/departments, report back to her boss about her situation, reach out to other research assistants who have been in her shoes, discuss a contract/plan of action with Dr. Bundt, so each knows what to expect/what it expected of them, bring the issue to HR, or look for another job
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 40

Response: She should step back and write a thank you to Dr. Bundt for everything he did for her but if she is not happy, she should look in other directions.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Since Dr. Johnson is a good friend of Dr. Bundt, Joan should talk to the head of the department again, explain the situation to him and ask him for guidance. If he cannot cause a change, mainly in the explanation plan, Joan should consider getting close to the other people in the job to find out what they are doing differently, and ask them why they like it in the job.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should seek guidance from an exteriors source like Dr Johnson. She also has just simply overlooked that the other students are happy and enjoying their experience, she should seek guidance from them and get their opinion.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Since psychology is a broad topic, she should try to explore other branches. One bad lab with one bad teacher shouldn't be the end all be all.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: explore other areas of research that are interesting to her and present that to Dr. Bundt
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should organize her work into a schedule/groupings that are similar with each other so she can kill two birds with one stone to save time. When completing the work, Joan could work with others to distract herself from the real work she's doing.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Try talking with other students they might agree to switch to Joan's research while Joan might find their research topic more appealing.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Make the project her own. She can incorporate the required tasks, but add her personality and things that she likes into the project. I also think that talking to the teacher always helps since he might be nicer than he seems.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should stick around during this research and journal her thoughts about how she felt and come up with reasons for why she might feel unhappy while the others seem to be happy. Based on her documentation, she could conduct her own research in the future about how power dynamics work and how people act in professional settings versus how they might actually feel on the inside. For her to stick around, she is making a small sacrifice for a benefit later on.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 50

Response: Tell Dr. Bundt how she feels and to simply find another research opportunity.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: do not work on the work
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 10

Response: Joan should go and speak her concern to Dr. Bundt. After he hears the concern, he can either change his actions or not. If he doesnt, she should consider leaving.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: #NAME?
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: I would recommend that Joan find a different mentor to work under. When she goes to apply for a real job in the real future, she won't be able to say anything positive about her previous work experience. Jobs want to see that you are doing things that are both beneficial and enjoyable to your development as a person. If Joan's pre-job as research assistant is not providing her with the skills she needs to become a successful worker/employee that her research assistant job isn't serving its purpose.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Quit because you can have other opportunities
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 10

Response: I would tell Joan to go to Dr. Johnson about other opportunities as a backup for a researcher to work for. I would tell Dr. Johnson that she is not interested in the project, and she can still help Dr. Bundt with small tasks to still maintain a relationship.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Call places instead of emailing.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 10

Response: She should approach Dr. Bundt and request a special assignment of her choosing. If she uses this assignment to please him with her own research she should be allowed to work on a different research project that she is more interested in. If he refuses, she can return to Dr. Johnson and explain that he is an unfriendly mentor that pushes students too hard.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 40

Response: There are always different counselors to attend and can ask for diffeernt advice. There can be different suggestions given on what to do.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: I personally believe that Joan should continue to work with Dr.Bundt, because of the relevant experience, and good job contacts he brings to the table. I believe Joan should try to build a little bit more passion for the research content, as that can help her study the content without getting frustrated.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should go right to the source, and discuss things with Dr. Bundt. Ask them if there are any other research opportunities or if Bundt is willing to work with her a bit to make sure she has the guidance that she wants. Her needs are needs, and she should always resolve them, and she has the ability to discuss them. If the conversation doesn't go well, then consider going back to Dr. Johnson to find other research enrichment opportunities.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should research new opportunities. she should look for things that have meaning to her life. She should also look at the description of the work. She needs to determine how often she wants to be at the research facility and how much time she wants to spend working on it on her own time. After she establishes all of those things she should pick her new research project.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: talk to the Dr. and ask for a different part in the study or for extra help, if he does not agree drop out of the study and create your own research to conduct and find a researcher who is willing to help you carry it out
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should reach out to the other students working with Dr. Bundt and collaborate with them. She should also reach out to Dr. Johnson and tell him the story and how she isn't liking it, and see if there's anything he can do like find another Dr. that she can work with that she might have a better time with. Until then, she should also try to reach out to Dr. Bundt and tell him the honest truth because he might have a solution to her problem. Theres no harm in asking him for help also (even though he might not give it to her).
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Although it might not be realistic, Joan should seek advice from Dr. Johnson and ask about possibly finding a new person in the field to work with if she is unhappy. She won't succeed if she doesn't enjoy her work.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should work with the other employees and figure out if they are all on the same page and not just faking any of their emotions. From there they should talk to Dr. Johnson and ask if it is worth it to stay with Dr. Bundt for career purposes. If he says no Joan should confront Dr. Bundt and quit.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: she needs to leave him if it does not 
or tell the other person and help out
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: I think she should figure out what the issue is that is causing her to dislike Dr. Bundt. Once she figures this out, she should consider bringing up these reasons to him if they aren't rude. With time hopefully they will solve the issue.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should stay with Dr. Bundt until she finds something else that is more intriguing to her.  In the meantime she should try her best to find something enjoyable about the research. When leaving she should remain respectful and tell the Dr. how much she has learned from him in her time working with him.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should speak to Dr. Bundt and tell him what she's feeling. Then she should try to work on another project or talk back to the department and get reassigned with another professor.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan can talk to the head of her department, Dr. Johnson, to discuss whether the problem is the job or Dr. Bundt. With this information, Joan can either decide to continue with the research project or bail out and prioritize her happiness.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: A solution to this problem is to think of ways to make the job more enjoyable such as creating a different and more enjoyable work space. She should also hang around her coworkers that are happy with the project and take some of their advice to help her own work.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should do what she needs to do to benefit herself. If she is not happy with what she is doing then she needs to leave that area. She just needs to bite the bullet and be honest with Dr Bundt even if that is not what he wants to hear.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan could write a letter to Bundt that other people people working under him sign so that he knows that his boss style does not work for them.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 40

Response: Joan should try to find other jobs with still working for Dr. Bundt. If she is able find another job, she should take it, but she should keep her job with Dr. Bundt until she is able to find another job.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: I think Joan should leave that job and find a better one that she would enjoy and get treated well.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: tell him that you are overwhelmed with all the work on your plate
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: leave dr bundts research thingy, and locate more options or find another field to pursue research in. You don't have to stay with one doctor in one field, and research opportunities vary
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: I'd ask the professor if he has any more studies accessible. If he does, try something different instead. If not, I would go to locate a new professor who has any studies that she would be interested in.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should consult her closest friends to peer pressure her into a decision whether it be to continue to stay in the research project or leave. Sometimes encouragement, motivation, or peer pressure can be very effective in influencing someone's decision.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 40

Response: What I would do is explain the situation honestly to Dr. Johnson and see if you can work with someone else. Honesty is appreciated much more than a bs story to make you seem entirely in the right
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should search for more opportunities that would increase her enjoyment and experience. Or, she could communicate with Dr. Bundt in search for a way to make the job more suitable
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: This is a situation where she just needs to leave. She could ask Dr. Johnson to work with a different professor that might be a better fit
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Ask Dr. Johnson if he has any other contacts that would be related to what field Joan wanted to work in and see if it related to what makes her happy. She could also find other jobs online or start her own research.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should have a one-on-one conversation with her co-workers to ask how they are going about their job. If they have the same tasks, yet they are enjoying themselves, she should ask them what they are doing to see if it is different than how she is completing the task. By doing this, she may find a better way to complete her job that makes it more understandable and easier to do in a shorter amount of time.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should discuss with Dr. Bundt that she is unhappy with her position and ask him or Dr. Johnson if there are any other positions available with other people. She should be respectful and thankful for the opportunity
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should be up front with Dr.Bundt and ask him if there are any other research projects he is working on or if he has any colleagues working on projects that she is more interested in.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan could talk to Dr.Johnson rather than Dr. Brundt. Dr. Johnson is friendly, and he know Dr. Brundt pretty well, so he can offer some insight on the situation.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should talk to the other students under Dr. Bundt for guidance. After receiving guidance, Joan must then decide if she is interested in the project again after having new guidance, or if she wants to stop working for Dr. Bundt and find someone else to work under.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: have a talk with joan that it is not him but her interest is somewhere else
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan could propose an original research project she could work on that connects to existing research. She could also propose a collaboration with another lab that would allow her to work with other people.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 40

Response: My primary suggestion for Joan is to have more interactions with other students who work for Dr. Bundt, and see if they have a similar problem and how they overcome such issue. If the problem is about Joan doesn't like this research project, then Joan can ask Dr. Bundt to find out if the research project can be switched.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Because Joan isn't happy, she should just leave the job
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 10

Response: Since Joan is unhappy, so can go back to the head of the department and see if there is another teacher she can work with.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Have conversations with the other research assistants to determine why they are happy in the role.  Are they doing something different?  Or is Joan in the wrong seat and nothing she will do will make her happy in the current role.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Maybe she could bring this up to the head of the department, Dr.Johnson and see if there is anyway she could be assigned a new faculty memeber to assist.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: She could find ways that her creativity would be productive and eliminate some of the more tedious responsibilities/consolidate these responsibilities. Taking initiative, she could start to find her own solutions, without the help of Dr. Bundt, and bridge her responsibilities with an interdisciplinary field that she finds interesting and productive, such as finding an artistic solution to some of her methods and responsibilities and bridging something she finds interesting. She could also use this to form more social connections between herself and other members of the group, that could change the prevailing mood.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: She should leave the situation if she is unhappy
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 10

Response: For Joan's situation, since Dr. Bundt is so hard to please I would tell him that Dr. Johnson has been saying bad things about him. The two doctors will start to fight and Dr. Bundt will forget about the research projects, allowing me to stress less and eventually when the research under Dr. Bundt ends, I can find a new passion since this obviously isn't what's best for me.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 50

Response: Joan should talk to Dr.Johnson and see if there is anybody else she can learn from. If there isn't she should find a new person herself so that she isn't upset when working and enjoys what she does
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should talk to Dr. Bundt and see if her concerns can be resolved and if they don't, the Joan should talk to Dr. Johnson about the issues she is having.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: frame every other student for something that goes against the work they're in so Joan is the only student worker left.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 50

Response: Joan should look into some other options that she may be interested in. She may find this out by taking a test online to really find what her interests are.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 40

Response: Joan needs to find a research project that she enjoys and that she will benefit from in the end for job opportunities.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: I think Joan should leave the work with Dr. Bundt. She can find another creative outlet, or talk to Dr. Johnson and find a new person to work with. Mental health and enjoying what you're doing is more important than sacrificing your time for something you don't enjoy. Things will always workout in the end.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Generate a proposal to work on a more interesting and engaging project that is still within the realm of the lab
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan could talk to Dr. Bundt and explain that she is very lost in the material. Then, if that does not work, she could always switch to another project and quit doing it.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: In a last effort, Joan can express her stress over the situation to Dr. Bundt. If the situation does not improve Joan should go to Dr. Johnson and search for other branches within the field that may suit Joan's skills better
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: She should ask to switch projects so she can be intrinically motivated
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: I think the solution to Joan's problem is talking to Dr. Johnson about the situation and finding a different person to work with.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should schedule a meeting with Dr. Bundt. They can redefine expectations and set new goals for Joan. In addition, Joan should confess that she doesn't feel welcome in the job and may switch to someone else. Perhaps this will entice Dr. Bundt to treat her better.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should look for a research study that she is interested in before she decides to quit or talk to Bundt himself about finding another research study.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should carry out the research for about another month, and try to reach out to another research assistant, express her concerns, and see what they think or if they have had a similar experience. If she continues to notices Dr. Bundt's displeased attitude, she should consider switching over to another research position that's more suited for her.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should talk to Dr. Bundt about her concern, and if he is still being unfriendly then she should look for another job opportunity where she is happy and enjoys what she is doing.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan can talk to Dr. Bundt about his teaching methods and ask for advice and help while also expressing her personal issues with him in hopes that it will not have a direct impact on how they interact in the workspace
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Because Dr. Bundt is unfriendly and difficult to please, getting guidance from him is difficult. Going to Dr. Johnson, the head of the department would be a good place to get answers. Also, building a rapport with Dr. Johnson would be better than working with Dr. Bundt as working with the head of the department would be regarded more highly by employers. Additionally, by mentioning your problems with Dr. Bundt you could potentially get him to change his ways which will be better for all students. Lastly, if you are not enjoying the research, try to make the topics interesting by taking some time to do more of your own research and apply that to the research you are doing for this lab.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: I think a creative solution would be to go back to Dr. Johnson and to explain the situation to him. He may be able to offer further guidance to Joan in what decision she should make to try and make this research lab more enjoyable. Dr. Johnson may tell her to have a conversation with Dr. Bundt himself and as if she may be able to switch her research topic into something that is more enjoyable or something that she would want to spend a lot of time researching. It never hurts to just ask and if she gets turned down to change her topic then she should just finish the project and maybe find a different faculty member.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should tell Dr. Bunt that this is not the right fit for her, and maybe explain the situation to Dr. Johnson and ask if he has another opportunity for her that would be a better fit

Response: Joan should reach out to the head of the department about working with someone else. Just say she doesn‚Äôt enjoy this field and maybe explore other ideas.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should talk to her fellow students to see what they are doing that she might not be doing in order to delegate her work and research. However, if she is also not enjoying the research that she is doing, it might be beneficial to approach the research from a different angle that is more tailored toward her liking. If after all of that she is still finding that she does not enjoy the research or the professor, it may be time to find a different research project.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: I think Joan should reach out to dr. Bundt and see if he can do anything and if not I think she should reach out to an advisor and try to find something to do in order to get out of the situation
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan needs to make herself interested in the research in order to get Dr. Bundt on her good side. This will allow her to have this good connection with him after graduation.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should discuss the issue with Dr. Johnson, and ask Dr. Johnson if he is aware of the issue and whether he knows anyone else in the field. If not, Joan should try and inform Dr. Bundt of the issue and talk to other students working under Dr. Bundt. If Joan is truly happy, she should find another job and transfer.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: She could go to Dr. Johnson and express her concerns. If she feels like she is only doing busy work she could confront Dr. Bundt and also the other research assitants and then work together to try to figure out maybe it's time to be relocated or find a place that would better suit her.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan can talk to the other students and see what they are doing to get a new perspective on the situation. Maybe a different strategy would change things. If it doesn't, then she could have a conversation with Dr. Bundt to come up with a solution to the issue.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan could approach Dr.Bundt and explain her situation and ask for a different assignment within the lab. She could also use this opportunity to see if any of the other students have worked with someone who might fit her needs better.

Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should quit her job with Dr. Bundt after finding another resource. Joan should not have to continue her job if she feels unfulfilled, as she will only grow to be more unhappy. However, she should not quit working as a whole. Rather, she should find a research environment where she feels supported.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: She can tell Dr. Bundt how she feels and see if that changes anything. If it doesn't, she can consider working in other parts of psychological departments.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should try and find a new job, one that she is interested in. She can ask Dr. Johnson for advice about other labs, since she should be working on something that she enjoys
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should leave working with Dr. Bundt and keep their relationship as just friends. She should leave and do her own research.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should obviously leave this job. It's almost impossible to change other people so why should she waste her time at a place that she doesn't enjoy and takes up too much time. Joan should go back to Dr. Johnson, tell them how she appreciated the opportunity but did not click with Dr. Bundt, and ask him/her if they know anyone else looking for research assistants. If not, she should look for a new job herself by contacting various companies and asking them if they need assistants or interns.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should at least stick around and not give up. Before leaving she should inform Dr. Bundt and tell him that she‚Äôs overwhelmed and she if there‚Äôs any way he can accommodate to her. I think that if they have a conversation things can improve maybe they can come to an equal agreement that can work for the both of them. If its still to much she should take time for herself and her mental health and just leave and attempt another time when she‚Äôs actually in a better mind state.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should go to Dr. Johnson and explain to him that the job as a research assistant is not what she thought, and feels as though she could be doing something that she is more interested in.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: She could talk to Dr. Bundt to see what exactly she needs to work on an try and pick out 1 or 2 things to look forward too about the research.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: I would tell Joan to go talk to Dr. Johnson and explain what is going on, and see if there is another person she can work with. If she still feels the same way about her research project, then maybe its Time to move on.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should attempt to find common ground with Dr. Bundt to see if he becomes any friendlier and easy going toward her, and then maybe see if he has any connections that would align with her interests in the field.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: She could do some research to find something that does interest her in the project she is working on. She could also change the topic in a way that still stays on topic but interests her and will be something she wants to work on.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: First, she should talk to Dr. Budnt and communicate her feelings with him, then, if she does not succeed, she should talk to Dr. Johnson about working with someone else.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 50

Response: Talk to Dr. Jonson to see what you can do to either leave the research assistant position, or see of he would speak with Dr. Bundt to lessen the load, or even just be more approachable. She could also talk to other students to ask how they find themselves happy working there, and how they cope with the large workload.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: I would talk to the other students and truly try to understand if she is alone in her feelings. I would also research other parts of the field and explore other parts to see if she really needs to change career paths or if it best to stick it out.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan is obviously unhappy, she must find a new job. However it could just be the environment she is in. Something she could do is tell Bundt that she does not want to work with him anymore and find a new mentor to work with.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should leave the job if she is unhappy because it's just going to make her miserable and if she can't please Dr. Bundt now, she'll never be able to. It's important for Joan to find a job that is exciting for her and rewarding for her so that she won't fall out of love with her career choice.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: If Joan is really unhappy but wants to continue her work as a research assistant, she should talk to Dr. Johnson about switching professors.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should tap dance around the room, sparking confusion amongst her peers. Then, she should hand Dr. Bundt a paper, stating her release from his lab and randomly "disappear" in a puff of smoke
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 50

Response: Joan should first speak to the other students that are being employed under Dr. Bundt. She should ask for tips and tricks to help her stay happy and interested with her assigned work. If this doesn't work, Joan should reach out to Dr. Bundt in a kind way, while showing great interest in her work. Even though Dr. Bundt is said to be rude, he should see how much she cares, and give her some sort of guidence.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should definitely approach Dr. Bundt and share her stance on the happening within the lab. There is no use in her conducting research if she is not invested in the findings. If that does not work then she can go back to Dr. Johnson and inform him and ask for other recommendations she could possibly work with. If she is unsure of approaching either professor then she should approach a lab partner and ask them how they stay engaged and what they find interesting about their individual research.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should really look at if this is what she wants and she would decide if its worth upsetting him. She could start by talking to the other students and see what their experience is and if they went through a rough patch too. If not she should go to him and be like I don't think this is the research project for me, do you have anything else I can do after this.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should probably quit.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 10

Response: joan should quit her job and find something she enjoys doing better, there is no reason to stay if she doesnt like her boss, workload, or career.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan's two primary options are to ask Dr. Bundt if she could switch research roles or seek a new individual to work under.  She could argue to Dr. Bundt that her skills are far more fitting for a different research project another group is working on, whether that be inside Dr. Bundt's control or outside, and that she should be placed there instead.  However, if this does not work Joan could also propose a new experiment, a slight derivative of her original project, that she would perform better with.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should speak to Dr. Johnson first explaining her problem as soon as possible. Since she should not be wasting more time on this.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should try talking to Dr. Bundt to see if she can get help from him during the research or she should find another research project.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should attempt to find another job in that field, and be open about her feelings towards her current situation. Joan could also approach Dr, Johnson and ask about any other opportunities.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: If Joan is unhappy and does not feel that she is gaining anything from working under the supervision of Dr. Bundt as a research assistant, she should look into other opportunities for research experience.  She could also ask to shadow another lab, that way she can get an idea of what the research and people are like before she commits to a full-time position with them.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 40

Response: Joan needs to make sure to just tell the truth. I would recommend her to go back to Dr. Johnson to tell them what her opinion is on the job, maybe including how she feels about Dr, Bundt, and them deciding what other job she could be interested in.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should pretend to be someone else or hire a friend for a week (preferably male), do everything like normal, and see if she is treated differently and now Dr. Bundt is friendly and easier to please. If that does change I would suggest she confronts him about why he treats a male better or ask him why he doesn't like her.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 50

Response: I think Joan should reach out to Dr. Johnson and explain to him how she is feeling and they can talk about what she can do next to solve her problem.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan could try to go back to Dr. Johnson and explain her situation and that she is unhappy with the recommendation he made. She could ask Dr. Johnson to either talk with Dr. Bundt, allow Joan to work for him, or suggest another Doctor to work with.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should leave the research study and have a reflection on her life and her choices. She needs to reevaluate who she is as a person, what her dreams and ambitions are, as well as her goals in life. She should go back to Dr. Johnson for advice on other ways of researching Psychology or other projects that may spark more of an interest for her.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Benefit from asking other peers who are also working under Dr. Bundt to gain more help in the tasks you do not understand. Even outside of work try to connect with some of them and gain some insight not only for the things you don't understand but also how to better please Dr. Bundt with the quality of work you will put out. If that doesn't work then leave that job and look for another one you would better enjoy.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should fake her own death, and live the role of her twin sister, which would allow her to get out of the work with dr. bundt and restart with a professor she's more interested in.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 50

Response: Joan should leave the job with Dr. Bundt because she is no enjoying herself while the other students are. However, before she leaves Dr. Bundt she should find another Dr. to be a research assistant for so she is not left empty handed.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should try to work with the other students for advice and help before she does anything.  If she truly does not enjoy it, she should start looking for another research assistant opportunity.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should first see if there is anyway Dr.Bundt has any other research projects she could switch to. If not then she should try to make her work more fun or interesting for her. Perhaps she could try to take the research she is doing and make it more applicable to her own life. If none of these work then she could try talking to Dr.Johnson about starting her own research.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Resign from current research project and find one she is interested.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: I think that Joan should first seek out advice of Dr. Bundt because he is the one providing her with the work. She can also seek help from the other research students. She may need to mention the fact that she does not enjoy nor have a lot of time for the current research she is doing. If Dr. Bundt does not respond well to this and give her a feasible solution, she could go to Dr. Johnson and seek their advice as well to maybe change who she is doing research for.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: If Joan feels like dropping the program entirely could be detrimental to her career opportunities in the future, she could try to turn her situation into a psychological study itself. For example, she could record every day she feels dissatisfied and why she felt dissatisfied. Then, she could begin asking her colleagues why they feel satisfied with their work and see if there are any correlations between the work and learning style, socioeconomic status, etc. She could use this data to create a psychological analysis on why some people perform better in research settings than others and use her findings as evidence for her qualifications for job applications.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 50

Response: Have a talk with Dr. Johnson and explain politely that you are not interested in this research and were wondering if you could find a different person to work with who may be specializing in an area that you are interested in.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: First I would talk to Dr. Johnson about DR. Bundts behavior and attitude and see if she can be assigned to another doctor, if not confront Bundt about his actions and the line of worked assigned and seeing if their could be a reassignment.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: I think that Joan should find a new recherche partner. But not only that I think that Joan should come up with a study that interests her and as a professor go into this recherche project with her, if she has an idea.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should put herself first and leave the job. I think especially after college you want to be doing something you like instead of starting off negatively right after the bat.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 10

Response: Joan should quit and put herself and her mental health first.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 10

Response: Joan should begin looking for other job opportunities that fit what she is looking for. Joan could do this by going back to Dr. Johnson and explaining the situation she is in right now and asking if there are any other opportunities that are similar and are available. The most important thing Joan should think about is her happiness and if this job is not making her happy and also does not come with a lot of benefits than there is really no  point in staying.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should talk to the same person again, and just straight up explain that she is not enjoying it and would like to know if there are other options.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: I believe if I was in Joan's position I would try to find another job. Not every job is for everyone and I know there are friendly people out there to work for,
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Become friendly with the other research assistants and see what guidance she can get from them. Specifically ask Dr. Bundt what he wants.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Come up with way to relate the research with things she has interested to stay motivated. Ask for help from other students and have group study meeting. Consult Dr.Johnson about this problem.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should leave and talk to Dr. Johnson about what to do. She should not stay if Dr. Bundt is unfriendly and difficult to please. It would get exhausting if she stayed.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Talk to Dr. Bundt that he is not enjoying the job and see if he can offer other research opportunities or go wild and try a new esponteneuos job that you never thought expected to in the future.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 40

Response: First Joan should probably talk to the other students and ask why they like their research so much, maybe they had a hard time at the beginning too? Maybe Dr. Bundt warms up with time as well? If none of that seems to be the case and Dr. Bundt isn't willing to reason with her about some of the work, maybe she should inform her previous professor, Dr. Johnson, that Dr. Bundts research team is not for her and see if he can recommend another job. I don't think she should waste her time doing something she doesn't like especially if it isn't going anywhere.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should leave the job and find one that she is passionate about. She can look online or in person to find a job that is well-paid and has a boss that will treat her right. She should look at possible ratings of the job, talk to certain people that work at the specific job, and go to interviews.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Talk to Dr. Bundt and Dr. Johnson about her feelings and see their opinions. If they tell her to stay in the job despite being unhappy, she should reach out to other people to find something she enjoys more
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: I would go directly to Dr. Johnson and address her concerns. Basically just seek advice because she may not be looking for the right career path for herself.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should fake her death so she can get out of the position and not hurt the doctors feelings. After that she can move away and peruse what she really wants to do.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 50

Response: Joan can talk to the other students working the internship and see what they enjoy about it. Maybe the way they describe the job will make her feel more engaged with the research material. However, they may also feel the same way as Joan and are just pretending to like the internship so that Dr. Bundt will give them a good recommendation. In that case, Joan and her fellow coworkers should stand up to Dr. Bundt and explain how they are unhappy. If Dr. Bundt does nothing, then they all agree to quit because he is not the only professor with a good internship.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 40

Response: She needs to go to Mr. Johnson and explain the situation. As the head of the department, he should understand that although she appreciated the suggestion, it just wasn't the path for her. She should ask to be transferred to work with someone else.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: I would talk to Dr. Johnson and explain your feelings, maybe have him talk to Dr. Bundt for her
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 31

Response: Joan should quit her work with Dr. Bundt right away because it's really important to keep one's time in someone's life, but she felt that it's 'very' time consuming process. So, she should find another doctor to work with and different doctor to be paired with. Dr. Bundt would be good for the other students, but she felt that she didn't know what to do and difficult to fulfill the goal. It's really serious problem to complete work, so she has to be done with Dr. Bundt's research project.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: I think Joan should leave the research project, and find another project to be a research assistant on. If Joan is not enjoying herself, and is not learning anything from the research she is doing, she's not getting anything out of the experience. I think she should find a project that she is interested in, and will enjoy so she can actually get something out of it.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan should probably quit working with Dr. Bundt and either try a new research person or just quit it all.
Human originality rating (0-100 scale): 22

Response: Joan does have a duty to finish the assigned objective, but should immediately return to Dr. Johnson with complaints and alternatives afterwards. To complete the work, seeking help from workmates & Dr. Johnson (who is likely her greatest personal resource) would benefit her greatly. Depending on the material, looking for online tools can speed up the work process or introduce her to work opportunities that interest her in the field.
