Identify WHAT outcome you want to study -- why do you think this will be linked to self-esteem? How will you measure this outcome?

 Imagine that you are a researcher that wants to examine the relationship between self-esteem and a given outcome (e.g., academic performance, music ability, empathy).

1) Identify WHAT outcome you want to study -- why do you think this will be linked to self-esteem? How will you measure this outcome?

2) Identify HOW you want to measure self-esteem -- there are a variety of scales and surveys related to self-esteem, based on a survey of the literature (i.e., your assignment MUST include citations), which way of measuring self-esteem works best for your purposes? If you can't find one that matches what you want to do, how would you develop one?

3) Identify HOW you would run your study -- would it be a correlational design? Would you split participants into conditions?

When you have answered these questions, write a brief summary (<1000 words) that includes the following:

RATIONALE: Why is this question important? Why do you think self-esteem will relate to your given outcome?

HYPOTHESIS: What is your specific hypothesis?

METHOD: How will you test your hypothesis? (For example, what would your independent or dependent variables be? What population would you test your hypothesis in? Would you measure this across time? Within or between subjects?)

RESULTS: What results would you expect? A difference between groups? A correlation between self-esteem and your outcome variable?

DISCUSSION: If you were to find what you are hypothesizing, what would this mean for future research or enhance our current understanding of self-esteem? If you DIDN'T find what you were looking for, what would this mean for future research?

    Starting with this provided code, add the following functionality

    1.Starting with this provided code, add the following functionality: Replace hardcoded strings “Zero”, “One”, “Two”, “Three” in the ArrayList based on user typed input (use Scanner or JOptionPane classes). The user will be prompted for the String to be stored in the ArrayList and then hit enter. The user will be able to continue to add items to the ArrayList until they just hit enter without typing anything. Once the user does this (hits enter without typing anything), the program will display all of the elements of the ArrayList, both the index and String values, in a table. It will do this via a single loop making use of an iterator method. 2. Starting with this provided code, add the following functionality: Use a Try/Catch block so that the exception is caught and the program exits a bit more gracefully. Save this file as TryCatch.java. (Be sure to rename the Public Class accordingly.) Starting with the provided code again (without the Try/Catch block), fix the code so that ...

      Directions For this assignment, you will need to choose a topic or person from any of the various eras, movements or decades that we've discussed this semester and do a presentation on them using any media format you choose. (IM CHOOSING THE MOVIE PSYCHO-    Why was this movie important to hollywood? What was the feeling of it, the colors, techniques, theme, director, style, music, anything!  What was special about Alfred Hitchcock and this film? The subject matter doesn't have to be limited to an actor, director or filmmaker, but  the topic of your presentation could be on the inventions of any of the equipment, editing or filming techniques that you've learned about.  Basically, you can pick an area to cover and do your presentation on that.  The point is that you take a deeper dive into the subject by exploring information about it that may not have been  covered in this course.  It does have to...

    independent variable

    Which of the listed variables does a researcher mainly use in his or her approach with intent to establish validity - specifically, construct validity? ·         independent variable ·         confounding variable ·         dependent variable ·         participant variable ·         extraneous variable ·         third variable Instructions: With our engagement in this discussion we will likely touch upon learning objectives/competencies 2.2 and 2.4 as dependent upon the various variable selections and replies. (a) Please briefly define the two concepts (variable type(s) selected from the list and construct validity) using our text by Cozby and Bates (2015) or another credible source. (b) Then, support your view...
