Detailed Learning Objectives1. Articulate how the roles of consumers and producers of psychological research are similar and how they differ.2. Explain how theories and data interact to form empirical inquiry.3. Identify examples of basic and applied research and describe the interactions between the two kinds of research.4. Describe how the peer-review process affects the communication of scientific ideas.5. Describe the differences between empirical journals and popular journalism; describe the goals of each format and give examples of ways that journalists can write better stories about scientific news.
