What are psychological questions?
Psychology explores human thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, as well as mental health and well-being, in individuals and groups across the lifespan. Can you think of examples of psychological questions? This could be a question you are personally interested in, a question you consider of current interest, or a more general question about thoughts, emotions, or behaviours.
For this activity, we’ll be using Microsoft Whiteboard. To edit the whiteboard, make sure you’re signed into Microsoft 365 in the same browser you’re using to view this page.
Note the following features of MS Whiteboard:
- Sticky notes: We’ve turned off author names, so your name won’t appear on the notes themselves.
- Whilst you’re adding or editing a note, other people can see a small badge with your initials (or your photo, if you’ve set one) next to your cursor. Microsoft Whiteboard has no setting to hide this. So the board is best thought of as visible to your group rather than fully anonymous—please don’t post anything you’d be uncomfortable being seen to add.
- Reactions: If you react to a note (e.g., add a “like”), your name is visible when someone hovers over the reaction.
- Instructor view: The instructor can see who contributed what via the board’s activity feed. This will only be reviewed if a post raises concerns or requires further investigation by the university.
Please add only one question per sticky note.
