      I had the privilege of assisting Dr Amy Chan conduct an exploratory study investigating the relationship between counterfactual thinking and experiences of luck in everyday life. Working as part of a small team, we assisted Dr Chan with each stage of the project including the review and submission of the ethics application, the creation of the instruments, study design using Qualtrics, data collection through Prolific, data cleaning in MS Excel, and data analysis using IBM SPSS. The skills and knowledge gained throughout this experience was invaluable and I look forward to applying what I've learned in my post-graduate studies. Show less
