• Leuphana Bachelor / Major Studium Individuale / alle Semester

Work confronts workers with various demands. Some of these demands even force them to cross personal boundaries (e.g., when workers face health threats on a daily basis or have to violate personal principles).
In small groups, students will examine how workers cope with such extreme demands and which resources they need to cope with them. For that purpose, students will conduct a daily diary study. This course consists of the following ten parts:
(1) discussing relevant literature of occupational health psychology
(2) identifying a research question
(3) deriving hypotheses
(4) getting to know research designs in occupational health psychology
(5) applying a diary study design
(6) implementing and conducting an empirical research project using a daily diary study
(7) collecting field data
(8) analyzing the data
(9) evaluating the results
(10) presenting the findings

Students will gain knowledge in extracting research questions and in transferring those research questions into an empirical study. Students will extend their overall research skills in specified areas of research. They will improve their social competencies by working in small groups to conduct a research project within one semester. En route to completing the group research project successfully, students will learn how to coordinate, organize, and lead teams to complete the research project on time.
