The general goal of the various MTP Seminars is to deepen the knowledge and skills that allow a proficient and critical use of research in the field of Psychology and to plan the development of an individual original research, empirical or theoretical, in a specific field of Psychology.
In this course, students will become familiar with and learn to identify the most relevant textbooks, reviews, papers and journals for their research topics. The students will also learn how to critically assess research papers and to point out to research gaps that can be operationalized into feasible research questions.
Specifically, in a specific field of Psychology, the goals are to understand:
1- How to review scientific literature
2- How to review the literature critically
3- How to systematize relevant information about theoretical and methodological frameworks
4- How to frame a research question
1- To select appropriate data sources for a specific Psychology domain
2- To critically evaluate the literature
3- To write an overview of the relevant literature for a specific Psychology research topic, including
3.1- To formulate clear research questions appropriate for the topic of the seminar
3.2- To construct an argument and to identify evidence appropriate for examining the research question
3.3- To incorporate and cite pertinent evidence in a manner that meets the standards of Psychology scientific writing
