In this assessment, you will be designing your own experiment to test the effectiveness of a treatment.

 You will not be doing the experiment, just designing it. Think of something that interests you. What cause and effect relationship would you like to show? Be creative here! 

As you design your study, use the following format.

Part 1. Introduction. Develop your research question. What is it that you want to know? A good research question will tell the reader exactly what your study is about and help you maintain your focus throughout the research process.

Part 2. Methodology. What will be the target population? How will you get your sample? How will the control and treatment groups be formed? What treatment will be applied? What statistics will you collect?

Part 3. Discussion. What conclusions would you be able to draw from the data?
