Final Project:
The final project will be a poster, completed alone or with one classmate, and an accompanying
project paper (5-6 pages text, plus cover page and reference list). The project will present
material that you have read, synthesized, and integrated about a particular topic in
psychopathology or social, personality, or developmental psychology. You should read at least
two articles or chapters related to your topic beyond the assigned readings. During the last day of
class, we will have a poster session, during which you will all display your posters. The last lab
session will be devoted to poster assembly. The challenge of a poster is to present scholarly
material in a concise, yet understandable and engaging fashion. The accompanying short paper
will go into more depth about your topic, and copies should be made available at the poster
session. These papers should follow APA style.
