Re: Collecting Coupons

The psychology department conducts numerous studies on various topics each year. It's beneficial to familiarize yourself with the many types of research before being asked to organize and do research on your own. 

The department has a long-standing custom of using first-year students as study subjects in studies conducted by more experienced students. Other than learning the subjects of psychological research, this tradition is supposed to assure that you will have subjects for research when you reach the more advanced years.

You receive a "coupon" after participating in a 30-minute experiment. This card is signed by the experimenter. You should ensure that the experimenter has a voucher to hand out as soon as the experiment is completed (and not take notes or promises). 

A shorter experiment (up to 15 minutes) provides "half a coupon". If the trial lasts 45 minutes, half a coupon could be offered in addition to a regular coupon. (When counting coupons, two "half coupons" are considered one coupon). To avoid confusion, the words "coupon" and "half a coupon" are written in different colors. The coupon colors will be issued at the beginning of the school year. Make sure not to grab coupons of different colors; they are coupons from earlier years that are not usable. At any rate, the school year is written across the top of the coupon. 

 

How many coupons should you collect?

 30 coupons.

 

You must collect the quota of coupons to get graded in the "Introduction to Developmental Psychology" course.

(Those who do not take the Introduction to Developmental Psychology course (because of  exemption) must hand in the coupons to the z before proceeding to second year study).
