Cognitive Paradigm Design Skill
This skill helps researchers select appropriate experimental paradigms for cognitive psychology research questions, configure their parameters with cited defaults, and design proper controls. It encodes methodological knowledge from the cognitive experimental literature that a non-specialist would not know.
For detailed paradigm parameters, see references/classic-paradigms.md.
For design methodology, see references/design-principles.md.
Research Planning Protocol
Before executing the domain-specific steps below, you MUST:
- State the research question — What specific cognitive process or phenomenon is being investigated?
- Justify the method choice — Why an experimental paradigm (not survey, corpus, modeling)? What alternatives were considered?
- Declare expected outcomes — What pattern of results would support vs. refute the hypothesis?
- Note assumptions and limitations — What does this paradigm assume? Where could it mislead?
- Present the plan to the user and WAIT for confirmation before proceeding.
