APA (edition "APA 6") Psychology and Education

Love/Attraction

Have you ever asked Why do people do that?! You have the opportunity to investigate mysterious human behavior. You find a HUMAN PHYSIOLOGICAL/PSYCHOLOGICAL topic of your interest and develop an overview of the literature on this topic (pathology, disorders, empathy, attraction, attention, intelligence, genetics, etc.)

Be sure you find articles on human psychology with a physiological/neuroscience biomarker (cortisol, heart activity, gsr, blood pressure, neuronal/EEG/FMRI activity etc.)

The paper will be in APA style (see APA style tutorial link), ~12 pages, with at least 5 empirical studies that you will summarize.

Please organize your paper with a title page, an abstract, an introductory paragraph, reviews of your studies, a conclusion, limitations, and future directions paragraph, and references.

Things to ask– What makes somebody fall in love? Why do people have certain types of attractions? What makes the love with your mother and the love with your spouse different or the same? etc..
