Write your introduction here: You should answer the following questions in your introduction:

Why is it important to investigate the topic? What do we know about the topic? (this is where you will evaluate the literature to determine what the relation between the variables are). What is relatively unknown about this relationship? (this is the gap your study will address). What information can we use to help make a prediction about this gap? (maybe there is one study testing this directly, or a similar study you can make inferences from). What is the aim of your study and what are your hypotheses? (the aim has been provided to you).

Method

Participants

How were participants selected (i.e., sampled)? Who were they? How many participants were there? What was the average age of the participants? What was the gender breakdown of the participants?

Measure 2 (change this heading as appropriate)

What was the name of the scale and what does it measure? How many items does the scale have? How many points were on the scale and what were the end points (e.g., a 7-point Likert scale ranging from Not at all to Very frequently)? What is an example item?

Measure X..keep going until youve explained all the measures.

Procedure
