Abstract: | It is important for psychologists to distinguish between statements of fact and opinions in the research reports they read or hear. Surprisingly, this basic skill is not readily observed in undergraduate students. A computerized laboratory activity is described that permits students to practice this discrimination, and demonstration data are reported to support the effectiveness of the exercise. |
