Liquid refreshments are permissible.
There will be 5 exams throughout the semester. The format for exams includes short-answer essays, identifications, critical thinking problems, and statistical problems. One goal of this course is to teach you how to write a scientific report using the style guidelines specified by the publication manual of the American Psychological Association. We will conduct several class projects for which formal lab reports are required. All final drafts of lab reports must be word-processed.
