1. poster presentation2
english question and need the explanation and answer to help me learn.
Students must select one of the theories discussed in the early part of the term (I prefer to
choose one from attachment theory, psychoanalytic theory, or ecological system theory)
and find an empirical paper from the past 10 years that is based on or tests this theory. One
way of looking for such a paper is to check in Psych Info or Google Scholar to see where the
papers we discuss in class have been cited. Students will record themselves presenting the
theory and empirical paper in poster format.
Please remember to keep the following in mind when searching for your article:
Does this study contain empirical data?
Was it published within the last ten years?
Does it relate to one of the theories/topics covered in this course?
Marks will be docked if the article doesn't follow these requirements.
You also need write a presentation script of poster presentation (with the video/audio
recording attached). Recordings must not exceed 5 minutes!!!
