Summary
This chapter looks beyond basic conceptions and practical implementations of undergraduate research by clarifying its nexus with psychological approaches, research-related dispositions playing a role in inquiry-based learning, as well as theoretical frameworks of competence and professional development. Further, the chapter systematically reflects contemporary studies on undergraduate research with a focus on psychological constructs. Methods for accessing and measuring features of undergraduate research and various effects attributed to doing undergraduate research are discussed. On this basis, a theoretical framework of undergraduate research is introduced. The chapter concludes with open questions concerning the theoretical foundation of undergraduate research from the psychological viewpoint, and with proposals for future research.
