Self-Regulation of Learning

Use published human and animal research and behaviorist, social cognitive, information processing and constructivist theory to develop an outline of a research proposal to measure self-regulation in one of the following fields: 

• Environmental or evolutionary psychology

• Forensic psychology

• Health or sports psychology

• Industrial/organizational or engineering psychology

Prepare this outline of a research proposal as a 10-minute Microsoft^® PowerPoint^® presentation (12 to 15 slides) with speaker notes as if your audience were members of a foundation grant screening committee.

Address the following in your presentation:

• A description of how you are proposing to measure self-regulation

• The operational definitions, limitations, assumptions, hypotheses, and data analysis plans

• The deficiencies a critic might identify in your statement of limitations and assumptions
