For this assignment choose either the Muscle Lab or Dive Response Lab and write the discussion and introduction sections of a lab report for one of these exercises. It should be noted that writing these two sections depends heavily on what the data in your lab exercise looks like so you may want to outline a results section for the exercise of choice.
Discussion Section:-include the acceptance or rejection of your hull hypothesis-how do your results relate to current knowledge about the subject-are there any inconsistencies in your data?-what possible sources of error-what future possible questions could be asked as a result of this experiment
Introduction:-need to include general background information on the variable being tested-what observation led to the question being asked-what was the hypothesis being tested
These two sections should be written in the past tense and in paragraph format.
Hypothesis for Hand exercise-> There is no relationship b/w visual cues and maintenance of grip force.
Hypothesis for Dive reflex-> There is no relationship b/w submerging face in water and heart rate.

7. Examine the olfactory sensory modality and discuss the processes involved in the sensation of
smell. Consider the factors (e.g., age, individual differences, gender) that affect the sense of
smell.
8. Consider the sensation of taste. Distinguish between types of taste and individual differences
in taste sensitivity.
9. Discuss the sensation of touch and what distinguishes this sensation from others. Distinguish
between active and passive touch. Consider the four basic types of sensation involved in touch.
10. Examine the factors that affect the sensation of temperature.
11. Consider the sensation of pain and distinguish between gate-control theory and psychological
control of as ways of decreasing pain awareness.
12. Consider the sensory systems involved in coordination (kinesthetic and vestibular).
13. Discuss how sensory adaptation and selective attention enable the human sensory systems to
respond to only particular types of information without confusion.
14. Explain the process of perceptual organization. Define the concept of figure and ground and
list and explain the five Gestalt “laws” of grouping.
15. Discuss the two types of perceptual constancy. Define size and shape constancy and discuss
factors that affect these tendencies.
16. Consider the factors involved in depth perception; namely, binocular depth cues and
monocular depth cues. Discuss whether depth perception is inborn or learned from experience.
17. Define the concept of perceptual set and examine how prior experiences can influence
perception.
18. Provide examples of perceptual illusions and explain how such illusions may stem from
overuse of “normal” perceptual rules.
19. Define extrasensory perception. Examine the evidence both for and against ESP.

Review the Example Research Proposal provided in the course materials. Design a research study on the topic of the study selected in Week One and critiqued in Week Three. Your design should seek to resolve the limitations you identified in the study you critiqued. Your paper must address all of the components required in the “Methods” section of a research proposal:
State the research question and/or hypothesis.Specify the approach (qualitative or quantitative), research design, sampling strategy, data collection procedures, and data analysis techniques to be used.If the design is quantitative, also describe the variables, measures, and statistical tests you would use.Analyze ethical issues that may arise and explain how you would handle these issues.One source should be the article you critiqued in the Week Three assignment.At least two sources should be about the research methodology you have chosen for your study.At least one source should be on ethical issues in research.The remaining sources may be about anything pertinent to your study.Introduction- Introduce the research topic, explain why it is important, and present your research question and/or hypothesis.Literature Review- Summarize the current state of knowledge on your topic, making reference to the findings of previous research studies (including the one you critiqued in Week Three). Briefly analyze and critique these studies and mention the research methods that have previously been used to study the topic. State whether your proposed study is a replication of a previous study or a new approach using methods that have not been used before. Be sure to properly cite all of your sources in APA style.MethodsDesign- Indicate whether your proposed study is qualitative or quantitative in approach. Identify the specific research design, using one of the designs we have studied in Weeks Three through Five, and indicate whether it is experimental or non-experimental. Evaluate your chosen design and explain why you believe this design is appropriate for the topic and how it will provide the information you need to answer the research question. Cite sources on research methodology to support your choices.Participants- Identify and describe the sampling strategy you would use to recruit participants for your study. Estimate the number of participants you would need and explain why your sampling method is appropriate for your research design and approach.Procedure/Measures- Apply the scientific method by describing the steps you would use in carrying out your study. Indicate whether you will use any kind of test, questionnaire, or measurement instrument. If using an existing published instrument, provide a brief description and cite your source. If you are creating a questionnaire, survey, or test, describe the types of information you will gather and explain how you would establish the validity and reliability. If you are not using such an instrument, describe how you would collect the data.Data Analysis- Describe the statistical techniques (if quantitative) or the analysis procedure (if qualitative) you plan to use to analyze the data. Cite at least one source on the chosen analysis technique (from your Week Two assignment).Ethical Issues- Analyze the impact of ethical concerns on your proposed study, such as confidentiality, deception, informed consent, potential harm to participants, conflict of interest, IRB approval, etc. After analyzing the ethical issues that apply to your research proposal, indicate what you would do to handle these concerns.Conclusion- Briefly summarize the major points from your paper and reiterate why your proposed study is needed.The Final Paper:Must be six to eight double-spaced pages in length, and formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.Must include a title page with the following:Title of paperStudent’s nameCourse name and numberInstructor’s nameDate submittedMust begin with an introductory paragraph that has a succinct thesis statement.Must address the topic of the paper with critical thought.Must end with a conclusion that reaffirms your thesis.Must use at least six peer-reviewed sources that were published within the last 10 years, in addition to the textbook.Must document all sources in APA style, as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.Must include a separate reference page, formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
The following files have been attached to your feedbackThe Week 3 assignment required a critique of the article that you read in Week 1. The critique should have addressed aspects, such as the methods used in the study, the results of the study, and possible ethical dilemmas. The paper should have been at least four full pages long with five or more scholarly resources.Thank you for your submission. You did a good job on the critique. Your analysis was interesting and concise, particularly your analysis of the ethical issues pertinent to the study. You also met the page requirements. Way to go. Ensure that you are able to correctly identify whether the article that you use for the final paper is qualitative or quantitative.Remember to proofread your papers and continue developing your writing and APA skills. It takes a long time to become a skilled writer and APA takes time to fully master. The Writing Reviser and Ashford Writing Center will help tremendously.Overall, fantastic job!(0.76 / 1) Identifies the Study Being Critiqued, Summarizes the Research Question or Hypothesis Guiding the Research, and Critiques the Literature Review of the StudyBasic – Does not identify the study being critiqued, but summarizes the purpose of the study, and minimally critiques the relevance of studies discussed in the article’s literature review.(1 / 1) Differentiates the Research Design and Approach by Identifying and Critiquing the Research Method and Analytical ApproachesDistinguished – Thoroughly differentiates the research design and approach by identifying and comprehensively critiquing the research method and analytical approaches used in the study.
