The psychology publications workshop encourages undergraduate participation in the broader academic community by promoting sophisticated undergraduate research and active involvement with other aspiring undergraduate researchers. Students gain insight and skill in critical reading of research articles, a strong foundation in and familiarity with APA style, and considerable experience evaluating and editing psychological research articles—with a special focus on the original research of their peers. The seminar format allows for group collaboration and discussion, providing an environment that facilitates research-oriented cooperation and conversation among the next generation of psychological theorists and researchers.
Program Goals
1. Establish the foundation for a rich, integrated community of undergraduate scholars.
2. Provide undergraduates with the opportunity to learn critical skills in reading, evaluating, and producing professional-level psychological research articles.
3. Present undergraduates with the tools to discuss and disseminate findings to their peers on local, regional, and national levels.
