Psychology project???

Question

i have a project to do for my psychology class which is in 3 hours...i need an idea of something entertaining to write about. also, i need a 5 minute presentation. is there something in the field of psychology that i can incorporate the class into so its like everyone is participating?

Answer 1

depression in teenagers

Answer 2

do something with the diffusion of responsibility/ the bystander-effect. give your presentation and then act like you're choking on something or having a seizure and see if anyone helps you. Be careful though in case someone actually calls 911 lol

Answer 3

Why don't you have all the class do the stroop test.

It's quite interesting and funny. The stroop test is where you have a list of colours but the colour the word is written in is different from the colour it actually says. Make sense? Example-

Purple -the word is written using green ink.

Green-the word is written using blue ink

Yellow-this word is written using red ink and so on.

Then the object is to read the list of the words as fast as you can. But get them to say the colour of the word (the ink it's written in) rather than the colour is says. So for the above list the answers are green, blue,red. Not purple, green, yellow. U get me? Make the list around 40 words and get classmates to go in teams and time each other.

People find this really hard to do and it's a good laugh.

Google it and you'll find the psychological explanation to it. It's something about the brain processing two things at once.

It's been years since I finished my psychology course so I can't remember the explanation.

Hope this helps.
