The Human Observation Project should consist of a minimum of five typed pages. Information should be provided for each section of the Observation Project Form.
The project is divided into two section:
• the gathering of baseline information
• behavior change
Be sure that the project submission adheres to the following formatting requirements:
• Use double-spacing.
• Use size 12 font.
• Set margins to one-inch on all sides.
• Be sure to include your name/course title on the first page.
• Write in complete sentences, use good English grammar, and correct spelling.
• Avoid personal pronouns and statements such as "I believe, I placed the coin on the floor...", "My research proved that...." - in objective, naturalistic research your opinion is not very important, but your findings are.
Your research may suggest that..., support the hypothesis..., or indicate....; but it does not necessarily prove anything.
• Charts and graphs are part of an "A" paper, but are not part of the basic page count of the project. References to outside sources may also part of an A or B level paper.
Information should be provided for each section as outlined below.
• APA documentation style must be used when citing references in context and bibliography (if any).
