Please note that--IF POSSIBLE-- the class will be given IN-PERSON. I.e. your attendence will be required.
Note that this will mean that covid-19 regulations will apply, though it's hard to predict the future it seems highly likely that the 2,5-G rule (vaccination, PCR-test, or cured) that is currently used at the Unicersity as well as distance regulations will apply.

Language:
We provide all input from our side in English but I allow you to hand in (written) assignments in German and of course group discussions in or outside of class etc can be done in German.

Aim of the class:
The point of the class is that students learn the skills they need to write a bachelors thesis (or really any scientific article). This means that the aim of the course is to teach how to:
- search for literature
- read critically
- formulate a research question
- outline a paper
- plan your writing
- give & receive/use feedback
- write a paper

Or, shortly said, to "search, construct, and write".
Since this course is a prelude to the Bachelorthesis, the final output of the course is a written essay. This essay will form the Introduction of your Bachelorthesis.
In the Bachelorthesis seminar we will then focus on "design, analysis, and interpretation" as core skills, and work from the research question towards a study design, data analysis choice, and data interpretation.
Note that the Bachelorthesis seminar will not require/include the collection of data. Rather, we will focus on the choice of an appropriate analysis and interpretation.
The bachelorthesis will be written in the form of a Stage 1 registered report, more background information on that can be found here: https://www.cos.io/our-services/registered-reports
But will also be discussed briefly in class this semester, and in detail next semester.

Topic
Though the general topic is described in the aims and could be applied to any field of interest. The content of our class is centred around psychology of art/ empirical aesthetics in line with our focus at the EVA-lab: https://aesthetics.univie.ac.at/. The class is structured around four overarching topics from which the students can pick one to write their final essay about. The topics are: Art & Emotion, Art & Cognition, Art & Brain, Art & Field, and Art & Wellbeing. These topics are also used to form groups of students that can mutually help each other.

NOTE: in this class you will write an individual thesis, for which (in class) you will develop your own individual research question.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

Maximum of 1 missed classes (without special arrangement made with lecturers before missed class).

There will be small assignments that you have to do before classes, these have to be done & handed in but will not be graded.
They will be checked for meeting the formal requirements of the assignment. Failure to hand-in assignments or comply with formal requirements will lead to failing of the class. Note that the “formal requirements” mainly mean that you cannot hand in an empty document and need to follow the instructions, i.e. if you have to hand-in a research question, you meet the requirements if you hand in a research question and not if you hand in e.g. an outline.
As can be seen, these requirements are easily met.

These criteria apply to all assignments except the peer review assignment which will count for 10%.
S
ince the class uses a lot of participation 10% of the grade is class participation. This is because a lot of the class requires active participation and also that you come prepared (e.g. that you have read the literature if you were supposed to do so).
If given digital, this requirement stays the same as group assignments in-class will be done in breakout rooms.

Final paper forms the introduction to the following Bachelorthesis. It specifies a research question and formulates an answer to this question by way of a literature review. Note that you may/will find gaps in the literature, i.e. open questions regarding your research question that cannot be answered by the literature, this you can of course include in your final paper.
The idea is that next semester you add to the answer of the research question by designing your own study, one way to do this would be to address one of the gaps in the literature.
The paper has to be APA style and 2000 words with a 20% leniency (meaning between 1600-2400 words). This will then be combined in the Bachelorthesisseminar with a paper of 3000 words with 20% leniency (aka 2400-3600 words) to form a final Bachelor thesis of between 4000 and 6000 words.
