Hi,
As I understand it, you want me to help you understand what to do in terms of designing a simple experimental research for your sample study. If this is not the case just let me know. But I think you want help in putting this together so that you can include it in your paper, right? Now, before I forget, I see that your literature review section is empty. Your professor is asking you to provide a literature review so you must give your professor that. 3 related literatures should do it. I suggest the following:
