Summarize an empirical research article. No quotes, everything in your own words.
Introduction (i.e., a thesis statement describing the purpose of the research, an explanation of variables, statement of hypotheses, summary of background research),
Method (i.e., a descriiption of participants, procedure, assessments),
Results (i.e., descriiption of how the data were used to test hypotheses, explanation of how observed data relates to research question),
Discussion (i.e., explanation of conclusions, limitations of study).
Summaries should also include the student’s own critical analysis of limitations of the research and an integration of how the research article fits in with the broader research context.
A full reference of each article should be included at the end of each summary, and an electronic copy of each empirical article should be submitted with the assignment.
IF YOU EXCEED, IT IS FINE, I WILL PAY THE DIFFERENCE.
