Researchers are seldom "done" when they finish a research project. Recall that the first step in the research process involved selecting a research question. This, by itself, is difficult because often we have so many questions about behavior and mental processes! In addition, a finished research study may answer a research question, but more often than not, new questions arise. Thus, the next step in the research process is to conduct another study.

Are the findings specific to my study?

Is psychology research in my future?
