Overview<\/h2>\n

This assignment is another building block for the final project. Before you begin, please review the Required Resources to support your success with this milestone assignment.<\/p>\n

Keep in mind the differences between research papers and literature reviews. <\/span>Research papers<\/em> <\/span>take a topic and describe all aspects of that topic. They use current articles and books to support the statements in the paper. A <\/span>literature review<\/em> <\/span>is literally a review of current articles designed to support the topic. This milestone assignment will have you focus on writing a literature review.<\/p>\n

For example, if you want to investigate color preference among adult men and women, you first need to review current studies on the topic. Your paper needs to begin with an introduction and an explanation of the topic. You need to find peer-reviewed journal articles, like the six in your annotated bibliography. You need to summarize each article, including what the researcher found, a brief description of the research design, the advantages and disadvantages of the design, and how the article compares to other articles in the literature review. These details are essentially your annotations in your annotated bibliography. You need to add more information to each annotation, but they are a great start.<\/p>\n

Then, you describe the gaps or pieces that are missing in the research (if any), ethical considerations (if any), and validity issues (if any). Each article becomes its own paragraph or two (or three) and then leads into the next article. Once you describe each of the articles in the literature review individually, you collectively include a discussion of any gaps in the current body of research. This is where your research comes in. You are going to be investigating an area with a gap. So, by discussing the gaps, you lead on to your research question and finally to your hypothesis and the proposed study\u2019s key variable. <\/span>Now you have a literature review that contains an introduction to the topic, a review of each current article, a discussion of where there are gaps in the current literature, your research question and how that fits into the gaps, and a concluding hypothesis<\/span>. Your literature review becomes the beginning of your research report.<\/p>\n

Prompt<\/h2>\n

In <\/span>Module Six<\/span>, you will submit your problem statement and literature review. In addition, you will revise your previously submitted research question and hypothesis based on the feedback from your instructor in Milestone Two.<\/p>\n

Your work should include the following <\/span>critical elements<\/span>:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Problem Statement<\/span>: This is a short description of the problem to be improved upon. Your introduction to the problem statement will provide your reader with the general topic of the proposal and its importance and relevance to real-world issues.<\/li>\n
  2. Literature Review<\/span>: Include an overview of previously published work on your selected topic. This should include scholarly resources. Your literature review should consist of the following elements:<\/li>\n
      \n
    1. Existing Research<\/span>: Summarize existing, applicable research, utilizing peer-reviewed sources, and attempts to do so in an integrated way.<\/li>\n
    2. Research Designs<\/span>: Identify different research designs used to generate knowledge on the topic and describe how they differ.<\/li>\n
    3. Advantages and Disadvantages<\/span>: Differentiate between research designs for their advantages and disadvantages in addressing the research question.<\/li>\n
    4. Appropriateness<\/span>: Evaluate the appropriateness of the research designs to the research questions and determine the most appropriate design, providing justification for each.<\/li>\n
    5. Unknown<\/span>: Summarize what is unknown or uncertain about the topic, utilizing applicable research.<\/li>\n
    6. Principles and Standards<\/span>: Discuss the appropriateness of the data analysis procedures used in the literature as they relate to the APA\u2019s principles and standards.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    7. Research Question and Hypothesis<\/span><\/li>\n
        \n
      1. Research Question<\/span>: Include the testable research question written in Milestone Two. This should be a revised research question based on your instructor\u2019s previous feedback.<\/li>\n
      2. Hypothesis<\/span>: Include the testable hypothesis written in Milestone Two. This should be a revised testable hypothesis based on your instructor\u2019s previous feedback.<\/li>\n
      3. Variables<\/span>: Describe the variables that will be measured and manipulated in the study, explaining the selection of the variables<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
