Examination topics
Each group will decide democratically which of the following 2 ways they want to use to write the bachelor thesis:
1) Group writes Methods & Results sections together (group part), and Abstract & Introduction & Discussion sections are written individually. [Recommended by teachers]
2) Each member focuses on a specific sub-question/hypothesis and thus writes a sub-part of each section. [Coordinate well to make the whole thesis coherent! ]

Aims: Students gain practical experience in scientific research by planning and conducting an empirical study, analyzing the results and writing them up in the form of a Bachelor thesis.
Since the skills to develop the theoretical background were trained during the Fachliteraturseminar last semester, this course will focus on the following topics:
1) Practical planning and preparation of an empirical online study,
2) Data collection,
3) Data analysis and hypothesis testing, and
4) Writing of the scientific report in line with the Bachelor thesis guidelines.
