Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that the scientific method in psychology follows a systematic sequence of steps to investigate phenomena.
Recognize that after forming a hypothesis, the next logical step is to design a way to test that hypothesis empirically.
This involves planning and conducting an experiment or study that will provide data relevant to the hypothesis.
Collecting and analyzing data comes after the experiment is conducted, but the immediate step after hypothesizing is the experimental design and execution.
Therefore, the step immediately following hypothesis formation is designing and conducting an experiment to test the hypothesis.
