writing a lab report

Lab reports are often required for psychology courses, especially those in applied or experimental psychology. The purpose of a lab report is to clearly and concisely describe an experiment or study. Your report should communicate the purpose of the research, the research methodology, and the meaning of your results. The structure of a psychology lab report is similar to a professional journal article, but check with your course instructor for specific guidelines he or she may have.
