Identify your Research Question
What are 2-3 important points from your literature review that are critical to understanding your proposed study? Include APA-style citations where necessary.
What was your primary hypothesis or hypotheses for your project?
What is your general method? Who are your proposed participants, what are your proposed materials, and what is the proposed procedure?
What is your design? What is/are the independent variable(s) and what/how many levels are there? Are the variables manipulated between- or within-subjects? What is your dependent variable? How is it operationalized?
What statistical test should you use for your proposed data analysis? What would you expect to find, statistically, if your hypothesis is supported?
Display your predicted results (and describe what they mean) in an APA-style Table or Figure. (*Hint: Figures are typically best for presentations, but you can choose either one.)
What conclusions would you draw from your experiment? Are there any important limitations to consider? What are some future research directions?
DO use images to illustrate ideas
DON’T use walls of text
DO use large, sans-serif fonts
DON’T use the entire slide- if there’s too much information for one slide, divide it into two slides!
DO use colors and design templates to create a cohesive presentation
DON’T use flashy animations or slide transitions
DO practice your presentation, either using a scriipt or not
DON’T JUST read off a scriipt- work on making your speech seem natural and relaxed.
