PSY 2120: What Research Psychologists Do

This video focuses on ways in which research psychologists approach their work. In other words, it focuses on how research psychologists think and what they do. For example, most scientists are empiricists, and research psychologists are no exception. Thus, research psychologists test theories, they focus on both basic and applied research topics, and they publish their research for the benefit of both the public and the scientific community.
