Instructions for Paper III: Study Two Literature Review (Worth 35 Points)

This paper will cover both study one (including the literature review, methods section, results section, and brief discussion from that study) and the introduction literature review to study two. This paper essentially tells the literature oriented story of your semester long project thus far. Your main job is to justify your study two predictions, and you do that by both showing how study one influenced your choice of variables in study two as well as citing prior research that supports your second independent variable in study two. At the end of the study two literature review section, you will provide your own study two predictions.

The good news is that we are continuing with our topic of the study. You wrote a lot on that already, so here you simply add to it, noting in a second “literature review” section how a second independent variable might interact with the manipulation from study one. Here are the components to keep in mind. By now, a lot of this should be familiar to you, so you’ll see a lot of overlap with the instructions and checklists from Paper I and Paper II.

  1. Title Page: I expect the following format (1 point):

  2. Literature Review Study One (3 points)

  3. Methods Study One (3 points)

    1. Revise your methods from study one for this section based on feedback we gave you in Paper II. The Paper II instructions for methods still apply for this section.

    2. Again, revise, revise, revise or risk losing all points in this section

  4. Results Study One (3 points)

    1. Revise your results from study one for this section based on feedback we gave you in Paper II. The Paper II instructions for the results still apply for this section.

    2. Do I need to mention revise?

  5. Discussion Study One (1 point)

    1. Revise your discussion from study one for this section based on feedback we gave you in Paper II. The Paper II instructions for the discussion still apply for this section.

    2. One word – revise!

  6. Literature Review Study Two (10 points)

    1. APA formatting for the first page of your literature review

      1. Your study two literature review starts right after the discussion for study one. There is no page break, so have it come right after the discussion on the very next line.

    2. APA formatted citations for the literature review

      1. Between the literature review for study one and the literature review for study two, you have to have at least 8 references combined.

    3. Content-based requirements for your study two literature review

      1. Your study two literature review should use your study one results and prior research studies as a jumping off point, once again starting with a broad theme and then narrowing it down – think about the hourglass example your instructors have given you. Now imagine that you have a second hourglass right below the original one. You can start broadly again with information about the new study independent variable, and then once again narrow down as you near your hypotheses for study two.

      2. Think about your study two literature review this way: You are writing a sequel to study one, so your new story picks up where that story left off.

          1. For example, let’s say your new independent variable is “the effect of warnings on behavior”, with warning versus no warning as the two levels of the new IV. You would talk about research on warnings and how it impacts people. THEN you talk about how warning about Sexuality Priming might impact people. So, step one is to introduce the new concept while step two is to show how the new concept fits in with your new study.

        1. At the end of the story, start to lead the reader to the big cliffhanger (your study two hypothesis). By now you have introduced the characters as well as the plot, but then you want to build some anticipation in your reader – you want them to wonder what comes next! The last part of the literature review brings the reader to your study two hypotheses, or that potential twist ending to your story. That is, “Given what we saw in the literature, what happens if we do XYZ?” Thus you build your study to your hypotheses and end on another cliffhanger. The next chapter (Paper IV Methods, Results, and Discussion) focuses on the study that you actually did! In other words, at the end of your study two literature review you should …

          1. give a general overview of your research question

          2. state your specific predictions / hypotheses given the studies you talked about in the literature review. This should look at both main effects and interactions, so you’ll need to address each IV on its own (main effect for belief perseverance and main effect for your second IV) and the interaction of the two IVs as they work together. Therefore you should have at least three hypotheses!!

    4. The literature review for study two must have a minimum of two (2) full pages of text and a maximum of five (5) pages. This time, I’ll let you include the hypotheses within that minimum 2 pages (though it would be very tight to get all of that info in there in such a short lit review section).

  7. Citations: I expect the following format (4 points)

    1. All in text citations must be correct (correct APA formatting, correct dates, if directly quoted must have page numbers, and uses et al. and & and correctly)

  8. References: I expect the following format (5 points):

    1. The References section starts on its own page, with the word References centered. Use proper APA format in this section or you will lose points.

  9. Appendices: I expect the following format (1 point)

    1. Copy and paste from Paper II. This should be an easy point! Just make sure the appendices go AFTER the references page

      1. Appendix A: Include your tables for your chi square and the crosstabs

      2. Appendix B: Include your tables for your ANOVA

      3. Appendix C: Include your tables for your t test (if you completed this)

  10. Overall writing quality (4 points)

    1. Make sure you check your paper for proper spelling and grammar. The FIU writing center is available if you want someone to look over your paper (an extra eye is always good!) and give you advice. I highly recommend them, as writing quality will become even more important on future papers.
