Critical Evaluations of Research

Find scholarly two articles. Summarize each article by writing short paragraphs and making sure to avoid plagiarizing. After each summary, critically evaluate each research question by discussing its strengths and weaknesses and making suggestions on how it could be improved.

Find two additional articles (you may not use the ones you used earlier in this assignment), one with a null hypothesis and the other with an experimental hypothesis. Compare and contrast these hypotheses and the ensuing research that resulted from them.

Compile your work in a 2- to 3-page Microsoft Word document.

Support your responses with examples.

Cite any sources in APA format.
