 What is psychology?

Psychology is the scientific study of the behaviour

and mental processes of individuals, and how it is
affected by an individual’s physical state, mental
state, and external environment.
REPLICATION

You will have 15 minutes to make something with all of the Lego pieces and write
instructions for the next team to follow.

When finished, let me know so we can take a picture for evidence!

Take apart what you made, leaving your instructions and all pieces at your station.

As a team, move to a different station.

When told to start, you will have 15 minutes to follow the instructions on the table to
try and recreate the original structure.

Good luck!
REFLECTION
1. Did you correctly assemble the structure(s)?
If no, what did you do incorrectly?
2. What made the task easy? What made the
task difficult?
3. What would you change about the
instructions to make your assembly task
easier?
4. How do you think this task applies to
conducting research in psychology or any
other scientific field (hint: think about the
scientific method)?
5. Reflect: What did you learn about
replication and planning research studies
from this task?
Next: Dweck on Praise

the questions in your notebooks.
