You will complete 1 Journal Article Summary that relates to the Social Psych Topic each module/week for modules/weeks 2-3 & 5-7. The idea is to find research that relates to each weeks topic to better understand the topic, and to get a better understanding of the research related to each topic. To find these potential articles, you can search google scholar, one of the psychology databases (i.e. PSYC INFO), or look in a specific journal (i.e. Journal of Applied Psychology). **Please dont summarize the attached journal articles for each week.
You will read the article and then summarize the article in approximately 350 words or more. Remember, these summaries are to help you to remember the most important aspects of each article so you have 5 article summaries on social psychological research that can help you both in this course and in future research and coursework.
Make sure that you include:
–    Title and authors of the article
–    Why the article was written (introduction), and what it attempts to find or answer (hypothesis section)
–    How it answers the question or questions it proposes (method section)
–    What the article found (results)
–    What the results actually mean (discussion)
Be careful to ensure that your answers to the above information make sense to you, as you want to be able to develop the skill of making complex/academic information easy to understand to non-academic people and I eventually will be reading these. Make sure to explain any complex ideas in plain language, and dont assume I as the reader know what you are talking about. Summarize these articles succinctly but yet thoroughly. Each Paper Article Summary must be at least 350 words. Refer to the Paper Article Summary Example for guidance on this assignment.

Submit your Paper Article Summaries 2-3 & 5-7 by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on the Sunday of the assigned module/week.
