Answer 1

This is going to be long, so sorry in advance.

Select a group and have them fill out questionnaires. Based upon their results, tell each that you are going to create a personalized personality profile based upon their responses! When you provide the personality tests, give each individual the SAME results, though make titles and such personalized to the individual. Make sure that the individuals are not allowed to share their results immediately with the others. Following their reading of their profiles, have them fill out a feedback form that rates (on a 1-5 scale) the accuracy of the profile's findings. What you will most likely find is that every individual will rate relatively high that the profile was accurate to their person. You can use this research/experiment to prove that even seemingly unbroad personality/psychology profiles can be applied to many. This also shows how individuals try to compare and find meaning and content in any text which they feel is personalized.

The link below should give you a lot of ideas.

And you could always try replicating a favorite study you read about--just do it with a small twist.

To save yourself time, you might want to conduct a small-sample survey right here on Yahoo Answers. Administer two different versions of a question, and see how it affects people's responses differently.
