Tip: Define your independent and dependent variables clearly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Case Study: <\/strong>Choose a topic suitable for in-depth analysis of a single subject (e.g., applying Psychodynamic Theory to a famous historical figure).

Example: &#8220;Participants will complete a 6-week online mindfulness course.&#8221;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Results:<\/strong> The data collected must be measurable and address your hypothesis. Example: &#8220;The Zung Anxiety Scale scores decreased significantly in the intervention group.&#8221;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Discussion:<\/strong> The findings must link back to existing research topics in psychology.
