Hello future Psychology prodigy! Let's dive into the captivating world of how digital technology impacts our cognitive processes. Here's your quick, fun guide!

In empirical sciences, like psychology, we rely on evidence from the senses (seeing, hearing, etc.) to build knowledge. It's kinda like cooking - to judge if a dish is good or not, you need to know the recipe and how it was cooked, right? Same concept!

In the "Cognitive Processing in the Digital World", we talk about three subtopics - think of them as different chapters in your favorite book. One of them involves exploring the methods used in this research area. Imagine you're a detective and you need to use different tools to solve the mystery of how tech impacts our cognition.

Just like a quick recap before the final episode of your favorite series, revisit Unit 1 on research methodology. This will give you a solid understanding of the pros and cons of different research methods, like experimental, correlational, and qualitative.
