final paper 357
The research paper will be a thorough review and discussion of the topic you chose in Written Assignment Week Two. As described in Week Two, the paper should be a review of a specific psychological disorder studied in the field of biopsychology, along with a review and analysis of methods used in biopsychology to investigate the cause of the disorder and to treat the disorder. You will base your review on specific studies of different methodological approaches of biopsychology to understanding and treating the disorder. (Note: It is important that you choose methodological approaches that you understand and are comfortable discussing in detail. For example, you should not choose gene knockout technology in the study of alcohol abuse if you are weak in the area of genetics and molecular genetics.)
