I posted all the information bellow! The goal of article reviews is to identify independent and dependent variables, describe study procedures, identifying strengths and weaknesses of the study design

Your one page (maxim um ) article review must include the following :

1. A description of the primary variables investigated. Be sure to explicitly indicate w hich is

(are) the independent (or, for n on -experimental research, the predictors) and which are

the dependent (or outcom e) variable(s).

2. A brief description ( in your own words) of the basi c procedure (the way th e study was

carried out, who the participants were, the type of met hodology employed [e .g., lab

experiment, field experiment, etc. ], how the variables were operationalized).

3. A description of one (1) methodological/procedur al strength of the study and one ( 1)

methodological /procedural weakness of the study. Please expand your understanding of

methodological strengths and weakness of study designs BEYOND the typical gripes

about low sample size and ge neralizability . F or example, some studies may be strong

because they have hi gh mundane realism or they may use double bli nd procedures. Some

stud ies may be weak b ecause they don ’t assess study susp icion.

4. Identify a life event that happened to you or one that occurred in popular media (or

perhaps to a character on a tele vision program) . Clearly specify how the stud y’s findi ng s

relate to this event.

5. Provide some insight on the outcome of the event . For example, why do you think the

event unfolded the way that it did? Did you, society, or th e TV characte r learn anything

about the event ? Can you us e the findings study to create a better outcome next time?

Your paper may not exceed the one -page limit (12 -point font, single spaced).

Article descriptions will receive 50 points (10 poi nts for each component) if all five requirements

descripted above are met . Components will receive 5 points if a requirement i s incomplete and 0

points if a component is missing.
