Choose a superstition.
State the superstition you are testing.
Write your hypothesis about the superstition in a testable form. For example, if I was testing whether people with short hair are taller than people with long hair, I might write, “If a person has short hair, she will be taller than a person with long hair.”
Define your dependent variable and describe how you plan to measure it.
Define your independent variable and how you plan to manipulate it.
Identify your sample participants and describe how you plan to assign them to the experimental and control conditions.
Describe how you would conduct this experiment. Include operational definitions, number of participants, where the experiment would take place, and how you can be confident that the results are due to your manipulation of the independent variable.
Make sure to support your presentation with key references related to the module.
