Here at Shepherd our Intro students don't engage in research as experimenters. We do have a capstone, a two-course sequence of Directed Readings (in which they do background research and design a project) and Senior Thesis (in which they do the project).

We're considering some curriculum changes here at LVC, and I'm taking an informal poll of practices at other schools. If anyone can provide answers to the following questions (I'm just looking for YES or NO; elaboration is not necessary), it would be greatly appreciated. 1. Do the General/Introductory psychology courses in your curriculum have a lab component (and I don't mean participation here--I'm looking at whether or not the students enrolled in these courses engage in research (in any form) as an experimenter)? 2. Do you have a capstone requirement (within the psych major) whereby upper-level students carry out data collection-based research projects? Thanks!
