GEM1011 RESEARCH PARTICIPATION SCHEME

Research Participant Scheme for
GEM1011 Applied Social Research

Requirement:

As part of your subject requirements, you are required to participate in 2 research studies. These studies are conducted by students from the HSS Diploma in Psychology Studies. Your participation in a research study will typically be in the form of answering some research surveys. Each survey session will last 30 minutes or less.

Your participation in these 2 studies will grant you 5% participation mark for GEM1011.

Participation Period:

28 Dec 2009 – 15 Jan 2010. (These are the 3 weeks immediately after the Term Break.) You will sign-up for, and participate in the 2 research studies during this participation period itself.


Where to Sign up for your Research Studies:

The sign-up location is along the corridor just outside IT8-6-29. Just take the lift at Lift Lobby B to Level 6, and you should see it. At this location, you will see a large board on which details of the many different research studies have been posted up (e.g. details of the research, timings of slots that you can sign up for, and location to report). You only need to sign up for 2 of these studies. Pick 2 studies which interest you, and for which the timing of the sessions are suitable for you. Sign up for the studies. Note the location that you will need to report at to participate in the studies.


After Participating in the Research Study:

After you have participated in a session, the researcher will hand you a “Receipt of Participation”. You will need to participate in 2 sessions, hence you will need to collect 2 of these Receipts. Please do not lose these Receipts! Pass the Receipts to your tutor, who will then record your participation in the research study and grant you your 5% participation marks.

If you have any further questions, you can contact the Kevster.
