a. What is counterfactual thinking and how is mutability related to counterfactual thinking?
b. What is racial stereotype / prejudice?
c. Briefly explain why the reader should be interested in the topic of counterfactual thinking.
d. Briefly explain how racial stereotype / prejudice might interact with counterfactual thinking.
e. Thesis: In this study, we are looking at the effect of mutability and racial prejudice /stereotype on (all the DVs).... And we hypothesize that... (include the two main effects and the interaction)
2. You should have five papers included here from Paper I. Review what you have written and revise the paper base on the feedback from Paper 1
3. Idea one (racial prejudice, stereotype threat, jury bias related to race, etc.)
a. What was idea one about?
b. What was the study about? How might this idea (racial prejudice, etc.) affect causal role, blame, and other DVs included in the experiment?
c. How does the study motivate the current experiment?
4. Idea two (racial prejudice, stereotype threat, jury bias related to race, etc.)
a. What was idea two about?
b. What was the study about? How might this idea (racial prejudice, etc.) affect causal role, blame, and other DVs included in the experiment?
c. How does the study motivate the current experiment?
5. Conclusion (DO NOT mention anything about your current experiment's method)
a. Revise your conclusion from Paper I to include ideas about racial stereotype
b. Currently, there is a lack of research related to the idea of mutability in relation to counterfactual thinking and racial stereotype....
c. We are therefore motivated to conduct an experiment that examines the effect of mutability and racial stereotype on counterfactual thinking generation, causality, etc...
d. We hypothesize that... (again, talk about your two main effects and the interaction)
