Before engaging in this discussion, watch the Classic Research Studies videos linked in the content module.
As highlighted by these studies, psychological research often stems from practical questions about human thought, feeling and behavior. Many investigations start with a simple observation that challenges our assumptions about human nature. For this discussion, you need to think about a question you have about human nature and design a research investigation to explore your question. For example, maybe you have noticed that there seem to be gender differences in jealousy; you could design a research investigation to see if men or women are more jealous. Or, maybe you have noticed that you seem to study better when you are listening to music; you could design a study to test the impact of music on memory.
