Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

NOTE: This seminar will be in ENGLISH. Assignments need to be prepared in ENGLISH.
Upon completion of the seminar, students should be able to summarise the current state of research in a certain domain of interest within the field of developmental, educational, or social psychology in writing, developing an individual research question, translating it into appropriate research operationalisation, and planning a suitable scientific investigation in the format of a "Registered Report".
This course is a preparation for the Bachelor Thesis Seminar, thus the final output of the course is a written report prepared individually (2000 to 3000 words, excluding names, titles, indexes, abstract, bibliography, appendices, etc.). This report will form the "Introduction" of the Bachelor Thesis and has to be prepared in APA-7 style. It will be combined with the remaining parts of the Bachelor's Thesis: "Methods", "Analysis Plan", "Interpretation of Results", "Discussion" (to reach a final word count of 4000-6000 words) in the next semester.
Note that the subsequent Bachelor Thesis Seminar will NOT require/include the collection of data. In general, the course will focus on the review of the literature and forming research questions. In the subsequent Bachelor's Thesis Seminar, the focus will be on the choice of appropriate analysis methods and interpretation of expected results.
The Bachelor's Thesis will be written in the form of a Stage 1 Registered Report (https://www.cos.io/our-services/registered-reports)
Topic: this class is centered around topics in developmental, educational and social psychology in line with the research focus of the Wiener Kinderstudien lab and the expertise of the instructor: https://kinderstudien.at/
Students can write their final essay about a topic of their choice. Topics include: (Neuro)cognitive Development, Learning in Social Interactions, Social Relationships, Social Touch.
It is recommended that all participants also attend the subsequent Bachelor's Thesis Seminar in the winter semester 2025-26. In the Bachelor's Thesis Seminar, one will use the preparatory work of this Scientific Readings seminar to finalise the Registered Report that forms the final thesis.
