I need some help picking a topic.

Post by deleted-953900 »

Hello,

This is my first year researching and I've been really stuck and confused on what my project idea should be like. I'm interested in psychology but I can't seem to find anything that I can do that is still feasible. I might even switch topics, I'm not sure what I should do. If you can help thank you

Hi there!

It's amazing that you have started to think about researching and science projects! I'm sure you will learn a great amount and have lots of fun.

Regarding a project idea, I would suggest following this link (https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... e-projects) which will take you to the Science Buddies project finder (Topic Selection Wizard). It will ask you some questions about your interests which will hopefully filter out the projects that will suit you best. You can filter the projects by area of science, grade level, necessary cost, time needed, and materials. Take some time scanning through the more than 1,000 science projects and see if there is something you find appealing and feasible. Once you choose a project idea, we can then work on specific questions pertaining to that project or I can redirect you to a different forum!

Since you seem to have an interest in psychology, I recommend clicking on this link (https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... psychology) which will take you to an assortment of psychology science projects ranging from behavior investigation to experiments that look into different psychological phenomena! Try looking through these available projects and hopefully you can spot something that is doable.

Just to sum up, try using the above resources mentioned above and see if you can narrow down your interests that can best fit into a science project. Once you come up with a topic, please feel free to share and inquire about any questions/concerns. I hope everything goes well and I look forward to what amazing project idea you have decided to work with!
