1. Watch the following video on plagiarism and APA citation format:
http://flash1r.apa.org/apastyle/basics/index.htm
2. Read the following course requirement for writing in Psychology courses at Post University.
For all written work in this course, it is expected that you will write using your OWN words. You are expected to discuss psychological concepts, theories, and
research results. In doing so, you will learn to communicate using the “language” and terminology of Psychology. Although you will learn the language of Psychology,
it is critical that you communicate your learning by using your own words. If you describe the theory or research results of others, you must paraphrase the main
ideas in your own words. Paraphrasing is the only way you can clearly show your instructor what YOU have learned. Paraphrasing is different from summarizing. Visit

After watching the video, paraphrase the paragraphs below. That is, re-write the passage in your OWN words.
The following passage is taken from your textbook, Chapter 1, p.33, third/fourth paragraphs.
“Experimental research requires, then, that the responses of at least two groups be compared. One group will receive some special treatment—the manipulation
implemented by the experimenter—and another group will receive no treatment or a different treatment. Any group that receives a treatment is called an experimental
group; a group that receives no treatment is called a control group. In some experiments there are multiple experimental and control groups, each of which is compared
with another group.
By employing both experimental and control groups in an experiment, researchers are able to rule out the possibility that something other than the experimental
manipulation produced the results observed in the experiment. Without a control group, we couldn’t be sure that some other variable, such as the temperature at the
time we were running the experiment, the color of the experimenter’s hair, or even the mere passage of time, wasn’t causing the changes observed.”
