General Psychology Research Directions A journal is professional, formal publication that contains different research studies on different topics, from different researchers. The articles in each journal reflect the perspective of the journal. There are journals for social psychology, abnormal psychology, psychiatry, child development, personality, etc. Suggestions for writing good psychology research. A. In a formal paper, there is no first person. No “I” “you” “we” etc. B. In a formal paper, there is no opinion. You are simply stating what is there. C. Don’t write things you don’t understand. Be clear and simple. D. Completely re-word ideas and cite or quote exactly and cite. Copying or changing just word or two is plagiarism, which is not only cheating and unethical, it is illegal and can get you removed from Racc or any other college. Simple things to improve research writing. 1. Do not use the study titles, use the author’s last name and year in parentheses to start sentences, which also serves as a citation. Example: Romney, and Ryan(2012) state that research in politics has done little to improve the truthiness involved in campaign commercials. Do not say: The authors state….. or (title of the study) states….. 2. Use sources that are from the same journal types as the class for which you are writing the paper. Social psych journals for social psychology; developmental journals for development; abnormal psychology journals for abnormal psych, etc. Your teacher may have a list of journals that are acceptable. 3. Research in the social sciences never proves anything, so don’t use that word. You can say that research supports the hypothesis, or suggests….(whatever it suggests), but never proves in social sciences. 4. Your textbook is not a reference, but is often a good example of how references should be used and cited. 5. Use PurdueOwl to check correct citation information. http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/01/ (Links to an external site.)
