The core task of this step is to determine the specific cognitive process experimental design and research and formulate academically valuable research questions based on literature review. Research design is the starting point of Cognitive Psychology research, requiring clear research subjects, core questions, theoretical frameworks, and research methods. Systematic preliminary exploration ensures research questions have both theoretical significance and feasibility.

• Review relevant Cognitive Psychology theories and research status, search 20+ core articles from recent decade through databases like JSTOR and Google Scholar, identify research gaps and controversies
• Select appropriate methodological approach from experimental design, reaction time method, eye-tracking, ERP/fMRI, determine research subjects and units of analysis, formulate 1 core research question and 2-3 sub-questions
• Write 1500-word research design including background, questions and hypotheses, theoretical framework, methodology, ethical considerations, timeline, submit to advisor for review

The core task of this step is to systematically collect data and evidence required for the study according to the research design. Cognitive Psychology research emphasizes diversity and reliability of evidence, requiring multiple methods to obtain data from different sources. Data collection must strictly follow research norms to ensure authenticity, completeness, and traceability of data.

• Use methods including experimental design, reaction time method, eye-tracking, ERP/fMRI to systematically collect primary or secondary data, build research database, ensuring reliable sources and complete records
• Use tools including E-Prime, PsychoPy, SPSS, R, eye-tracker for preliminary organization and classification of data, establish a data indexing system for subsequent retrieval and analysis
• Conduct data quality assessment: verify data sources, check completeness, annotate credibility levels, exclude unreliable or irrelevant data, ensuring quality of research evidence

This step is the core of the research, using Cognitive Psychology theories and methods to conduct in-depth analysis of data and engage in dialogue with existing theories. The analysis process requires close integration of theory and empirical evidence—extracting new insights from data while positioning research findings within academic tradition. Core arguments of the study are formed through analysis and dialogue.

• Apply core concepts and analytical frameworks of Cognitive Psychology for systematic coding and in-depth analysis of data, extracting 10-15 core analytical categories
• Engage analytical results in dialogue with 2-3 classical or contemporary theories, compare similarities and differences, verify or revise existing theories, propose unique findings of this study
• Construct overall argumentative logic of the study, determine 3-4 core analytical chapters, write detailed outlines for each chapter, ensuring arguments are supported by sufficient evidence

The core task of this step is to synthesize all analytical components and extract the overall significance and academic contribution of the study. Synthetic interpretation is not simple accumulation of analytical results but theoretical elevation at a higher level, answering the "so what" question. The study's contributions and value at theoretical, methodological, or practical levels must be clearly articulated.

• Synthesize findings from analytical chapters at theoretical level, construct holistic explanatory framework, answer core research questions, clarify theoretical contributions of this study
• Reflect on gains and losses of research design and implementation at methodological level, discuss advantages and limitations of research methods, provide methodological reference for similar studies
• Explore practical significance of research findings at practical level, propose 1-2 inspiring policy recommendations or practical implications, expanding applied value of the study

The core task of this step is to write research findings into a research paper conforming to Cognitive Psychology academic standards. The paper must have complete structure, rigorous logic, refined language, and proper citations. From abstract to conclusion, each section must be carefully polished to ensure optimal presentation of research findings. The final paper should reach the level of submission to academic journals.

• Write according to standard academic paper structure: abstract (300 words), keywords (3-5), introduction (1500 words), literature review (1500 words), research methods (1000 words), analysis chapters (4000 words), conclusion and discussion (1500 words), references, total text no less than 10,000 words
• Unify citation format (Chicago Notes or APA 7th edition), ensure all citations are accurate, reference list of no fewer than 30 entries with fully standardized format
• Conduct three rounds of revision: first round adjusts structure and argumentation, second polishes language and expression, third proofreads format and citations, ensuring paper reaches academic publication standard
