RESEARCH QUESTION FROM WEEK 5  AND RESEARCH  SHOULD BE RELATED TO APPLIED BEHAVIORAL ANALYSIS FOCUSED ON AUTISM SPECTRUM. ALL WORK MUST BE ORIGNAL AND PROPERLY CITED MUST FOLLOW ALL REQUIREMTNS

For this assignment, you will write a literature review. Now that you have found resources related to your research question, the next step is to look further into how they relate to each other and shed light on your research question. Not only will you be writing literature reviews in some of your future courses at Capella, but these skills will also help you in your future career in whatever specialization you pursue. For example, as an addictions counselor, you might need to develop a treatment plan that is suited to a particular situation. You will need to turn to the literature to understand what is known and what is not about that situation. Using critical thinking skills, you can find themes and determine what course of action your treatment plan should take. Behavior analysts also rely on the literature to determine evidence-based practices when assessing, setting goals, and developing support plans for clients and students.

Preparation

Complete the following if you have not already:

  • Analyze the sources you found in your preparation activities in previous weeks.
  • Review the Literature Review Template [DOC]. You will need to use this template when writing your paper.
  • Use the Literature Review Worksheet [DOC] worksheet to help you work through the process of identifying themes in your research and synthesizing the articles into your Literature Review.
  • Review the Literature Review Assignment Exemplar [PDF], which provides an example of a literature review.

Instructions

Complete the following in your assignment template:

Introduction

State your research question and explain how it relates to your specialization and professional interests.

Synthesis of Literature Into a Cohesive Review

In the preparation study in Week 5, you identified at least three key themes, or focuses of inquiry, that are relevant to your research question and present in each article. These themes may be based on:

  • Related aspects of research questions.
  • Related or differing conclusions.
  • Other factors or ideas the studies have in common.
  • Other points of contrast between the studies.

Use concise formulations of these themes as headings for the next sections of the paper. In these sections, compare and contrast your resources’ positions relative to each theme, and then synthesize your own position relative to the theme. Support your conclusions by citing your references.

Granello’s 2001 article, “Promoting Cognitive Complexity in Graduate Written Work: Using Bloom’s Taxonomy as a Pedagogical Tool to Improve Literature Reviews,” provides a framework and strategies to help you work through this part of your assignment.

Conclusion

Restate the conclusions you came to regarding the themes you explored with your research. Support your conclusions by citing your references. However, if you find that more research would be needed to decide a question, briefly outline ideas of how you could undertake that research.

Before You Submit

To maximize your scoring potential, be sure that you fully address all assignment requirements and meet the criteria in the scoring guide that will be used to assess your assignment. It is helpful to self-score your paper using the scoring guide before submitting, to be sure that you are meeting criteria for the grade you want to earn.

Smarthinking

It is recommended that you have your assignment reviewed by Smarthinking. Plan 24–48 hours to get results from this service, and additional time to make revisions before you submit the assignment to your instructor for a grade.

SafeAssign

Submit a draft of your assignment to SafeAssign for review of proper citations and references. It is very important that you always submit your work as a draft so you can make revisions before submitting your assignment for grading. Refer to the courseroom SafeAssign resources for guidance in accessing your feedback from SafeAssign, interpreting your report, and improving your writing and citations for your assignment.

Additional Requirements

  • Written communication: Should be free of errors that detract from the overall message.
  • APA formatting: References and citations should be formatted according to current APA style and format. Include a title page, abstract, and reference list.
  • Resources: Minimum of three scholarly resources. All references need to be cited in-text, according to current APA standards. Remember that citations are to support your thoughts, not take the place of them!
  • Length: 4–5 double-spaced pages, not including the title page or reference page.
  • Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12-point.
  • Template: Use the Literature Review Template [DOC] to format your assignment.
  • Submission: Once you are satisfied with your paper and have made all necessary revisions, submit your assignment no later than Sunday at 11:59 p.m. Central time.
SCORING GUIDE

Your work will be evaluated using this criteria.
