For this assignment, you will imagine as though you are writing a research paper on “brain training” and how it might improve cognitive functioning and combat Alzheimer’s disease. <\/p>\n
In preparation for this imagined paper, please analyze 3 scholarly, peer-reviewed research articles related to brain training and Alzheimer’s disease. I have chosen one article for you, called “Putting Brain Training to the Test” which is found in this week’s module. You task is to find two more scholarly articles related to this topic. <\/p>\n
Then, you will read the articles and: <\/p>\n
Provide the full, APA formatted citation for the entry
\nWrite a concise annotation that:
\nSummarizes the central theme and scope of the article
\nEvaluates the authority or background of the author (Who are the authors? What is their expertise?)
\nComments on the intended audience (Who do you expect would be interested in reading the article? Hint: scholarly articles are not typically written for the general public)
\nCompares or contrast this work with another you have cited
\nExplains how this work illuminates your topic
\nEnsure each entry is formatted correctly according to APA style, free of errors, and written in an academic tone
\nThis paper does not need any special formatting – just type the entries onto a document exactly as I have done in the example below.
\nYour entry must be written entirely in your own words. Do not use any direct quotes from the article. <\/p>\n
Example Entry<\/p>\n
Waite, L. J., Goldschneider, F. K., & Witsberger, C. (1986). Nonfamily living and the erosion of traditional family orientations among young adults. American Sociological Review, 51 (4), 541-554.<\/p>\n
The authors, researchers at the Rand Corporation and Brown University, use data from the National Longitudinal Surveys of Young Women and Young Men to test their hypothesis that nonfamily living by young adults alters their attitudes, values, plans, and expectations, moving them away from their belief in traditional sex roles. They find their hypothesis strongly supported in young females, while the effects were fewer in studies of young males. Increasing the time away from parents before marrying increased individualism, self-sufficiency, and changes in attitudes about families. In contrast, an earlier study by Williams cited below shows no significant gender differences in sex role attitudes as a result of nonfamily living.<\/p>\n
You will have three entries on your document that look like the example above. <\/p>\n
I don\u2019t need anything to above and beyond I just need something simple and to the point.<\/p>\n
