Module 1 Discussion: Research History & Developing a Research Question

Develop a research question that you would like to study in this course. Be sure your research question is appropriate, information can be collected quickly, you do not ask about mental health symptoms, suicide, or homicide (any issues where you might cause harm, put people at risk, or might have to make a decision about safety), your question should be one you can ask friends and family but you cannot use children.

Sample research questions include:

– Do people feel more relaxed after participating in mindless activities?
– Do taller or physically attractive people hold higher positions at work?
– Are birth order and the Big 5 Personality traits related?
