How many studies should you include in a single psya3 essay?

As many as you can remember use some of them to evaluate others by going against or supporting them

Really struggling with research methods- whether a value is significant. Does anyone know how to do this?

What is it you're struggling with exactly? If you need to determine whether there is significance of not, it will tell you by the table whether the critical value needs to be higher or lower than the calculated/observed value in order for it to be significant

Okay, so n1 and n2 are 20. If you go across the row for n2=20 and down the column for n1=20, the critical value is 127. The observed value is 124.
Under the table, it states that for it to be significant, the observed value of U must be less than or equal to the critical value, and as this is the case as the critical value is higher there is significance.

I really don't want a 10 marker on research methods either to be fair, the thing is it will be hard to wing

How ironic, I'm doing a 10 marker on design a study to test and Its actually not that hard and quite fun, but the thing is you have to think on the spot and if the examiners think i 'be creative' they must be having a laugh.

Could a 24 marker be asked on sleep walking, it just seems that there is less content for this than narcolepsy and insomnia.

No it could not. They usually say insomnia and/or one of the other two.
