Research proposal guideBehavioral Sciences Research MethodsResearch Proposal Guide For your final writing assignment in Research Methods for Behavioral science, you will be required to submit a research proposal around an experiment/study that you design. This is a research design proposal, therefore, you will not be required to complete data collection. Working forward from the literature review you submitted earlier in the semester will give you a head start, as this will be converted into the introduction section of this proposal.The final paper is structured using the following sections:Title pageIn APA format with a Running head in the header of the page.Introduction:Statement of the Problem: So what? Define the issue at hand. What is the problem? Why is this problem significant? Why do you want to submit a proposal on this topic?Guiding Question/HypothesisIdentify and state what research question you are trying to answer.Literature ReviewResearch other studies, articles, journal entries addressing your psychological question. Identify 5-8 sources that provide information to support your research design. The themes used in your literature review are not necessary here. A simple description of the research is more efficient, but do include demographics of those studies if it may impact your hypothesis. Methods:Description of who is going to participate in your study. What is the reasoning behind choosing these specific participants? What is the demographic information of your participants?Procedures: (sampling, execution of experiment) How will you conduct your research study? Outline the logistics of your study. Examples: Will choose five males XXXXXXXXXXage group), give them three different scenarios about morality (list the scenarios), and then I will analyze their answers.Statistics: Describe the alpha level you intend to use and which types of statistics you would employ.Results:Data Analysis: In this section, you are essentially predicting how you will interpret your data.Is this a qualitative or quantitate study?How will you analyze your hypothetical data?Explain how to most effectively organize your potential results.Discussion:Implications: What would positive or negative results mean from this study? How does it increase our knowledge of your selected topicLimitations: What are some issues/problems that your research proposal might have? Examples: Not enough participants, only teenage females, did used a trained professional, did not think about outside influencesFuture directions: what would the next logical step in this line of research be?References: 5-8 sources that were used to research your proposed problem. This can be the same as your review. But you may need to include more sources to justify the procedures you intend to use. Abstract:Please note, this section actually goes before the introduction and after your title page, but I am placing it here to encourage you to write it last.This is a one paragraph summary detailing the basic reasoning behind the purpose of the study, how you intend to explore the problem and what the results of this study would mean. This section does not necessarily need references, but can still discuss the main issues driving this research.

ANALYZING THE IMPACT OF APPLYING BEHAVIORAL SCIENCE TO MANAGE MENTAL HEALTH PATIENTS
(RESEARCH PROPOSAL)
Abstract
This proposal has focused on the analysis of the impact of applying behavioral sciences to manage the mental health patients. The key intention is to understand how behavioral science can be used for managing their problems, as mental illness cannot be treated as such. For this purpose, the prevailing literature has been reviewed critically, and the methodology that will be applied is primary quantitative survey questionnaire method of collecting data from 50 carers of mentally ill patients. These would make way for understanding the ways, in which these carers provide supportive or treatment methods to them.

1. Introduction
1.1 Background
	Mental health challenges are one of the most challenging phases that a person undergoes. This challenge is caused by the physical or psychological harm that a person faces and that led to impaired judgment or some kind of dysfunctional behavior and that leads to disability and harming the interpersonal relationship. Lamb and Weinberger (2017) have discussed that behavioral science is helpful in managing the mental health challenges.
Mental dysfunction can never be treated and it only can be managed by providing proper guidance. As the mental health patients are mostly aggressive in nature, therefore the application of behavioral science will help the mental care providers to analyze the mental state and according to that will provide proper treatment as required.
1.2 Research Rationale
	Behavioral science has a great application in studying the way a person behaves. Firth et al. (2017) have further discussed that behavioral science will help the care providers to study how the patients react, how they feel, the way the patients communicate, and the way those patients behave on any situation, do the patients behave emotionally or not and many more. 
There are situations, in which these patients cannot be able to communicate verbally or if they do, they are not in the right state of mind and it is impossible for them to communicate the right message, as they also do not know what they are saying. Thus, behavioral science will help the care providers to understand what kind of communication do the patients are trying to do. Based on that they will respond to the patients and provide them proper treatment and care. As mental problem cannot be cured, thus the best way is to keep it managed properly.
