Features: Psychological experiments play an irreplaceable role in the development of psychology. Psychological research reports (or papers) are one of the most important forms of expressing psychological research results. The writing of psychological research reports involves both scientific knowledge related to the theoretical background and research hypotheses of the research topic, as well as experimental structural knowledge related to experimental design and statistics, and knowledge related to the writing norms of psychological scientific papers. The formation and improvement of this paper-writing ability still requires a process of continuous training and practice. As for the current professional basic courses offered in psychology majors of universities in our country, such as General Psychology, Cognitive Psychology, Experimental Psychology, and Psychological Statistics, it seems that they cannot independently complete comprehensive training for students. Therefore, it is necessary to offer corresponding courses or special topics. Psychology Experiment Design and Report Writing is concise and easy to read and understand, providing highly practical guidance for the actual problems students encounter in the process of writing research reports. It can serve as a textbook or teaching reference for psychology majors in universities in our country (including undergraduates and graduate students), as well as a reference manual for psychological workers when writing psychological research reports (or papers).
