Paper Stream Option

Paper Stream Requirements:

There is an alternative assignment for students who do not wish to participate in research. Students who opt for the paper-stream option are required to read a research article assigned by the URPP and write a 5-page (PSYC1010) or 3-page (PSY2030), 12-point font, double-spaced, typed review of the study reported in the article in your own words.

Your paper will be subject to grading by URPP Teaching Assistants. Thus, completing paper stream option does not guarantee you will receive the full 4% (PSYC1010) or 2% (PSYC2030) grade, whereas completing research participation credits does. If you want to participate in the paper stream option email us (urpp@yorku.ca) no later than the following dates:
