1. The second part of the introduction outlines the
purpose of your own study. 2. After confirming the specific problem you investigated, you need to clarify the way in which your study tackles this problem.
Method-Subsections
• Design（实验设计）: here you talk about the formal design features of your study, using the appropriate terminology (e.g., for an experiment, things like the name of the design, what your independent and dependent variables were, and so on). • Participants（被试）: here you describe the relevant features of the participants (those from whom you obtained scores on your dependent variables).
3. Finally, you should describe clearly the predictions
that you derive from your experimental hypothesis or hypotheses.

Method-Subsections(cont.)
• Apparatus（仪器）, or materials（材料）, or apparatus and materials: here you describe the equipment or materials that you used (or both). • Procedure（过程）: here you give a blow-by-blow（详尽） account of precisely what you said and did to your participants in the study.
Outline the following features
1. Briefly state the problem that you chose to investigate. This should, of course, be clear from what you have written in the introduction so far. Nevertheless, it is good policy to confirm the problem. Then neither you, nor your reader, should be confused over the issue that
General strategy that you might employ runs as follows:
1. The purpose of the introduction is to put your study into its research context, by providing your reader with an introduction to the background material (existing findings and theoretical ideas （已有发现和理论）) relevant to it. 2. This material is presented in the first part of the introduction. The second part of the introduction presents the reader with a brief description （简要）of your study. 3. Increasing emphasis is placed on the first part as you become more experienced and the reports that you write begin to emulate research papers.
General strategy that you might employ runs as follows:
1. Perhaps open with a statement about the general area or phenomenon under investigation (e.g., memory, attention, attitudes, rumour). 2. Then talk about the particular aspect of this topic that your study specifically addressed (e.g., the impact of mnemonics, the “cocktail party” phenomenon (鸡尾酒会现象), attitude change （态度 改变）, how rumours are spread （谣言的传播途径）). 3. Then, with the problem nicely set up, you are ready to introduce your own study to your reader.
you tackled.
2. Give your reader a general idea of how you went about tackling it. There are always different ways to test the same issue. Here you need to describe in general terms the way that you actually chose to do it. 3. State clearly and accurately the predictions that you derive from the experimental hypothesis (实验假设) (or hypotheses) and clarify how your experiment tests these.
