Document Summary

People say we should only study what we can observe, but there are many things that are difficult to define. The challenges of working with these kinds of constructs are they are very abstract. Steps in experimental research: make predictions from hypothesises that ban be easily, identify variables that need to be measured define the, ask a question: from data, observations theories etc. Develop a research idea: make preliminary observations (whatever model system you use, animal, non animal, cells, you should observe and state first) (pilot project) and start to formulate hypotheses. If you work with real living organisms you tend to measure something that is behavioural. Sometimes people make mistakes, it happens: report your results, talks, posters, papers, book chapters, etc. Young chimps when they are born look similar to humans, they cling to their mother, they communicate to adults.
