Health and Sports Psychology Presentation

Option 5: Health and Sports Psychology Presentation

 

 

 

The research described in segment 5 has implications for a possible drug which might prevent dementia. Assume you have been asked to address a local club on the future of geriatrics for 15 minutes.

 

 

 

 

 

Watch the “Landscape of the Brain,” “Memory Eraser,” “How Does the Memory Work?,” and “Chess Experiment” videos available on the student website.

 

 

 

Prepare a 2 slide Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation with speaker notes explaining how the brain processes memories and possibilities for future remediation of geriatric dementia. Assume the club membership includes a broad spectrum of education and experience, but likely only a rudimentary knowledge of psychology.

 

 

 

Address the following in your presentation:

 

 

 

  • A brief summary of the work of Isabelle Mansuy
  • Speculation as to how Mansuy’s work might apply in the treatment of human geriatric dementia

     

     

     

    My part is the conclusion of this assignment no intro, need at least 200 to 300 word speaker notes

List a few things you would hear, that you cannot hear now, if you could hear “better.”

This discussion asks you to consider how you would perceive the world if your senses were more acute or sensitive than they actually are. Please answer the following questions and comment on your peers answers as well:

1. List a few things you would see, that you cannot see now, if your sense of vision were “better.”

2. List a few things you would hear, that you cannot hear now, if you could hear “better.”

3. If your other senses—taste and smell—were more sensitive, how might you be affected?

4. Why are our senses no more or no less acute or sensitive than they are?

5. If human beings continue to be urban creatures for the next few million years, in what ways might our sensory systems evolve or change?

Outline And Research Paper

Prepare a 2-page outline of your Research Proposal. The outline should provide an overview of the main elements of your proposal. It should include:

  • An introduction
  • A brief statement of purpose
  • The rationale for conducting the study
  • Your hypotheses and research questions
  • Methods (participants, procedures, materials, instruments), and appropriate statistical test(s) for data analysis
  • List of at least three relevant articles for the proposal

    Research Proposal

     

    Develop an original research study proposal and describe it in detail in a 10-12 page (APA style) paper. Include at least 10 scholarly references in your proposal. Use the following outline as a guide when writing your paper. Be sure to include detailed information on all of the topics listed below and use headings to organize your thoughts.

     

    1. Statement of the problem: Introduce the reader to the problem to be studied. Provide sufficient background information such that the reader has a grasp of the situation and its importance.

    2. Review of the literature: Provide the reader with a review of most relevant literature, beginning with general information, and narrowing the focus to the specific issues under consideration in the study.

    3. Purpose of the study: Identify why the study that you are proposing is needed.

    4. Hypotheses or research questions: List them as simple statements. Make sure they are measurable.

    5. Definition of terms: Operationally define terms the average reader may not know, or that have a specific meaning in your study.

    6. Assumptions: Identify issues you assume to be true in order for your study to be valid.

    7. Research methods and procedures

    a. Population: Describe the population sample to be studied

    b. Procedure: Discuss how the study will be carried out.

    c. Instruments: Describe the specific measurements (instruments) to be used to test each hypothesis (research question).

    d. Data Analysis: Describe the procedures you intend to use to analyze the data produced from your instruments, and how that would answer the hypotheses (research questions).

    e. Discussion: Since you are only proposing (not conducting) a research study, you will not have results; however, you can discuss potential outcomes. Review your hypothesis and discuss how this study will address it. For example, if the results allow you to reject the null hypothesis, what are the implications? What would happen if you fail to reject the null hypothesis? Discuss the implications of your proposed study, the limitations of your study, and future research ideas and directions.

    8. Implications: Provide a brief summary of your proposal and a powerful statement as to how your study would advance the field.

    9. References: Include at least 10 scholarly sources in your Reference section. Be sure to use APA style throughout your paper.
