Criteria Feedback
You show genuine personal curiosity by linking the investigation to your own sporting experience and to a real performance question.
You adapted your method after piloting the initial test, which shows independent thinking and initiative.
You included reflective observations about participant behaviour and motivation, which adds authenticity to the investigation.
Your hypothesis could have been more specific about the direction of the expected result and the mechanism behind it.
Some of your personal rationale is present, but the connection between your own background and the exact variable choices could have been made even clearer.
You could have explained more explicitly which design decisions came directly from your own testing and reflection.

Criteria Feedback
Your research question is focused, relevant, and clearly measurable.
You include appropriate background on reaction time, dominance, and inter-limb asymmetry to support the investigation.
Your method is generally suitable for the question, with repeated trials, clear group comparisons, and a sensible statistical approach.
You show strong awareness of ethical and safety issues, including consent, screening, anxiety, and possible photosensitivity concerns.
Your sampling procedure leaves some room for self-selection bias, and the final selection logic could have been explained more clearly.
Some background discussion becomes broader than necessary and could be more tightly tied to the exact variables in your study.
A few methodological weaknesses remain, especially around participant classification and the risk of unsupervised testing.
