For this assignment, you will formulate a research topic, identify and synthesize relevant academic<\/i><\/p>\n
articles on that topic, and formally present your findings in a brief literature review.<\/i><\/p>\n
1) First, select a topic for your literature review. To help narrow down your topic selection, I would like<\/i><\/p>\n
you to use social support as your independent variable. However, you may select your own dependent<\/i><\/p>\n
variable and population of interest. Thus, your topic will take the following form:<\/i><\/p>\n
The Effect of Social Support on [Dependent Variable] Among [Population]<\/i><\/p>\n
As you determine your topic, choose a population that interests you. Below are examples of populations<\/i><\/p>\n
of interest which would be appropriate for this paper:<\/i><\/p>\n
College Students<\/i><\/p>\n
Older Adults<\/i><\/p>\n
Adolescents<\/i><\/p>\n
Children<\/i><\/p>\n
Children of Divorce<\/i><\/p>\n
Children Living in<\/i><\/p>\n
Poverty<\/i><\/p>\n
Parents<\/i><\/p>\n
Single Parents<\/i><\/p>\n
Nurses<\/i><\/p>\n
Teachers<\/i><\/p>\n
Immigrants<\/i><\/p>\n
African-Americans<\/i><\/p>\n
Cancer Patients<\/i><\/p>\n
Athletes<\/i><\/p>\n
First Responders<\/i><\/p>\n
People With<\/i><\/p>\n
Disabilities<\/i><\/p>\n
Pregnant Women<\/i><\/p>\n
Employees<\/i><\/p>\n
Disaster Survivors<\/i><\/p>\n
Homeless Individuals<\/i><\/p>\n
Gay Men<\/i><\/p>\n
Caregivers of<\/i><\/p>\n
Patients With<\/i><\/p>\n
Schizophrenia<\/i><\/p>\n
Religious Individuals<\/i><\/p>\n
You must also select a dependent variable that makes sense in light of your intended population. Below<\/i><\/p>\n
are examples of dependent variables which would be appropriate for this paper:<\/i><\/p>\n
Psychological Well-Being<\/i><\/p>\n
Anxiety<\/i><\/p>\n
Depression<\/i><\/p>\n
Physical Health<\/i><\/p>\n
Risky Behavior<\/i><\/p>\n
Stress<\/i><\/p>\n
Burnout<\/i><\/p>\n
Exercise<\/i><\/p>\n
Academic Success<\/i><\/p>\n
Quality of Life<\/i><\/p>\n
Job Satisfaction<\/i><\/p>\n
Suicide Risk<\/i><\/p>\n
Positive Parenting Behaviors<\/i><\/p>\n
Self-Esteem<\/i><\/p>\n
Problem Behavior<\/i><\/p>\n
Drug Use<\/i><\/p>\n
2) Next, use an academic database to locate at least five peer-reviewed journal articles on your selected<\/i><\/p>\n
topic. I recommend using the PsycINFO database because it should include articles related to the topics<\/i><\/p>\n
on this list and because you have experience using the database. Make sure that the articles are original,<\/i><\/p>\n
peer-reviewed empirical articles published in academic journals.<\/i><\/p>\n
<\/i><\/p>\n
3) Finally, write a brief literature review in which you address your research topic drawing from the<\/i><\/p>\n
articles you selected. Your paper should take the form of a formal APA manuscript with a title page,<\/i><\/p>\n
body, and references. (An abstract is not required.) The paper must following proper APA 6th edition<\/i><\/p>\n
guidelines (40 points). The body must have three main sections: introduction, literature review, and<\/i><\/p>\n
discussion (set apart by headings).<\/i><\/p>\n
\u00b7 The introduction (40 points) should be approximately one-half page in length. It must introduce<\/i><\/p>\n
the topic and the importance of the topic, establish the problem and the importance of the<\/i><\/p>\n
problem, and explicitly state the purpose of the literature review (in terms of the research<\/i><\/p>\n
topic).<\/i><\/p>\n
\u00b7 Your literature review section (80 points) must be at least two pages in length. It must present<\/i><\/p>\n
the literature in a cohesive and integrated manner. All factual statements must include<\/i><\/p>\n
appropriate in-text citations with corresponding references.<\/i><\/p>\n
\u00b7 Your discussion section (40 points) must be at least one-half page in length. It must summarize<\/i><\/p>\n
your key findings (what you learned from the literature review), provide at least one specific<\/i><\/p>\n
implication for practice (what we should do with the information you collected), discuss at least<\/i><\/p>\n
one specific limitation of the studies reviewed, and provide at least one specific suggestion for<\/i><\/p>\n
future research.<\/i><\/p>\n
The outline of your paper should be as follows:<\/i><\/p>\n
I. Title Page<\/i><\/p>\n
II. Body of Paper<\/i><\/p>\n
A. Introduction<\/i><\/p>\n
B. Literature Review<\/i><\/p>\n
C. Discussion<\/i><\/p>\n
