Members of the community misunderstand one another, creating a conflict. Describe how you would plan to establish a foundation of understanding to create a relationship with the community members at odds with one another. Explain how you would conduct the research and how you would include the community in making the specific research decisions.

After you have read chapters 3 and 4 you will be able to respond to the following questions. Create your response into a word doc using APA format with a minimum of 550-750-word count. Include in text citations which will connect to the factual points from the article and/or textbook, and include the reference citations at the end of the document. AS Rubric: Upload in ODC if applicable

The textbook PDF is attached.

 Briefly describe three news articles you selected (past or current) on a single topic in forensic psychology that you find most interesting.

/in /by

This week, you begin the process of learning how to conduct a literature review, starting with perhaps one of the least accurate sources, the popular news media. By the time a research study is broken down by the media and presented to the general public many of the weaknesses are often left out. You will get a better feel for this issue throughout this course, but for this week, you start with this area of information dissemination.

To prepare for this assignment:

·  Review Chapter 2 in your course text, Research Methods for the Behavioral Sciences. Focus on the guidelines for conducting an effective literature search.

·  Think about how to search and locate research articles applicable to forensic psychology.

·  Select a single topic that exemplifies the application of psychological research in forensic psychology.

·  Research this topic and review three news articles you found related to the application of research in forensic psychology.

·  Think about any possible flaws in the articles and why you believe they are flaws.

The assignment (2–3 pages):

·  Briefly describe three news articles you selected (past or current) on a single topic in forensic psychology that you find most interesting.

·  Briefly explain the search terms (keywords) you used.

·  Describe any flaws you discovered in the articles.

·  Then, explain your reasons for identifying the flaws you discovered.

METHODS II PREVIEW ASSIGNMENT 2

Methods II Preview Assignment Instructions

1). Psychological Purpose

The psychological purpose behind the Methods II Preview Assignment is to give you a

brief preview to the paper you will write in Methods II next semester. Not only do I want

you to see what will go into your eventual Methods II research paper, but I also want to

make sure that you can write a clear, succinct paragraph for a research study that covers

all of the relevant information needed to convey the important parts of a study in a single

paragraph (i.e. an Abstract).

The Abstract is one of the first items readers see. You need to convey a lot of information

in this very short paragraph, as the potential reader will decide whether to read your full

paper based on the information in the Abstract. There are several elements needed in the

Abstract about research studies, including information about: a). the research question(s),

b). the participants, c). the experimental methodology, d). the findings, and e). the

conclusions / implications. Being able to write a precise yet succinct Abstract takes some

effort, so make sure you go through several drafts before settling on your final version.

Make sure to include keywords / key phrases as well (keywords are an essential part of

articles, as these are the words or phrases that library databases like PsycInfo provide to

searchers interested in specific topics. Well, the authors actually recommended these

keywords, so if you include them for this short Abstract Assignment).

2). APA Formatting Purpose

This Article Critique assignment should once again assess your ability to follow APA

formatting guidelines. Use Chapter 14 in your Smith and Davis textbook for help, and

look at the instructions on the next page for guidance with formatting

3). Writing Purpose

I want to make sure you can write clearly and specifically, summarizing what might be a

20 page paper in a single paragraph. This assignment serves that purpose.

 

 

METHODS II PREVIEW ASSIGNMENT 3

Methods II Preview Assignment (Worth 40 Points)

You will read a paper written by an actual Research Methods and Design II student from a prior

semester. This paper includes two studies the student conducted, with Study One introducing the

main variables and Study Two offering an extension with replication of Study One. Your job is

to read the whole paper and then complete your assignment in a word document, and submit it

(attach the word document) to the assignment dropbox on Canvas by the due date – You can find

an example of what I am looking for in Canvas as well:

In Part One, I want you to answer the following (2 points for each question, or 18 points

total):

1. What is/are the hypothesis for study one? Please give me both the null and alternative

hypotheses when you answer this question

2. What is/are the independent variable(s) for study one? Make sure you tell me how

many IVs there are and specify the levels for each IV

3. What is/are the dependent variable(s) for study one? Note: there are several of these,

so focus on the ones the author analyzed.

4. What did they find in study one? Give the general outcome

5. What is/are the hypothesis for study two? Please give me both the null and alternative

hypotheses when you answer this question

6. What is/are the independent variable(s) for study two? Make sure you tell me how

many IVs there are and specify the levels for each IV

7. What is/are the dependent variable(s) for study two? Note: there are several of these,

so focus on the ones the author analyzed.

8. What did they find in study two? Give the general outcome

9. I want you to review the references and spot the reference(s) that is not in APA

format and rewrite it for me according to APA rules. Note: there may be as few as

zero and as many as ten incorrect references, so make sure to look at them all!

In Part Two, write an abstract for the paper! This should be fairly easy, as you can

paraphrase the information from Part One. However, this time you need to write it in one short

paragraph (150 to 250 word maximum!). Note: there are two studies, and you have to mention

both. Yes, this is tough, but authors often summarize (in the same short abstract) papers that they

wrote that may include six or seven different studies! My suggestion is to find the overlap

between both studies and discuss both simultaneously. For example, “Both studies looked at X,

but study two also examined Y.” That is, your abstract should include the following (2 points

each, 14 points total):

1. APA format

2. Identify the general problem or research question (the hypotheses) for both studies.

3. Note the participants for both studies 4. Note the IVs and DVs for the studies

 

 

METHODS II PREVIEW ASSIGNMENT 4

5. Note the findings for both studies 6. Note the overall conclusions / implications of the two studies

7. Please include keywords for the study (3-5 keywords or phrases – these are not

included in the total word count)

Writing Quality (8 points)

1. Avoid run-on sentences, sentence fragments, spelling errors, and grammar errors. 2. The writing should be PERFECT here. You will lose a point for each writing error,

so proofread, proofread, and proofread some more!

3. This is an individual assignment. Everyone’s wording and phrases should be different. You may lack 5-8 points due to lack of originality.

 

Total points possible: 40 points
