Please watch this video in its entirety before making your poster! Details in the video: I will also attach the assigned reading. please carefully watch the video and make the poster on one slide. I will also upload the link to the experiment and our class result. Please use the class result and number for the experiment and poster. please message for any questions:

For the topic we explored in class, you will make a conference-style poster, addressing key points about the experiment (following the QALMRI structure)
Specifically, define your own research question, and take a specific angle to use the data we collected to address your question (note that the results don’t have to be “significant” for your question!). You should not describe all the results in a single poster. Instead, focus on deepening your question and think about the inferences you can make and what future directions one can take.
Your posters will be made in PowerPoint or Google Slides, and your final submission of the poster itself will be a single PDF file.
Writing assignment QALMRI guidelines:
Question: All research begins with a question, and the point of the research is to answer it. Usually, the first few paragraphs of an articles Introduction section tell the reader what question the article is addressing. In addition, the context provided by the literature review should explain why the question is important and why anybody should care about answering it. Questions fall into two categories: broad and specific. Broad questions are typically too general to answer in a single experiment. For example, a broad question might be Does language influence perception? This sort of broad question provides the general topic for a paper, but can only be resolved by compiling many experimental results across many different journal articles. The specific question can typically be addressed, at least in part, by a single experiment or set of experiments. A specific question might be If one language has a certain term for a color and another language does not, will speakers of those two languages perceive the color differently? In describing the question of an experiment, you MUST identify both the broad and the specific questions being addressed.
Alternatives/Logic: All experiments must be designed to distinguish among different possible answers to the specific question being addressed. Consider possible answers to the specific question (for example, one possibility is that speakers of different languages will perceive colors differently, because top-down factors often affect perception). How is the study designed to test these alternatives? What are the independent and dependent variables being tested? If relevant, describe the different experimental conditions being compared.
Method: Who participated in the experiment, and how many participants were there? What did these participants do? What materials were used as stimuli?
Results: What was the outcome of the experiment(s)? Although most psychological experiments are analyzed using statistical techniques, you need not describe the results at this level. Rather, state in a commonsense way what the most important findings were. Did the results differ by population tested, or by the experimental condition? What was the overall pattern of the data within each presented experiment?
Inferences: It is important not only to understand the How and Why of the experiment, but also to consider your own reaction to it. What do these results tell us about the question that originally motivated the experiment(s)? Do the results support or rule out one of the possible answers to that question? Are there alternative interpretations of the results? Were there any confounds in the experimental design, such that the results could have been caused by a factor other than the ones the experimenters were trying to test? Importantly, what was your impression of the
