Annotated Bibliography
All of the sources you use in this assignment MUST be used in the final paper. You are to use only peer reviewed journal articles available from the online databases (which are extensive), and not editorials, news items, commentary, or opinion pieces. You must use research based articles which will generally include one or more of the following elements: an abstract, a literature review, methods, sample, findings, and a short discussion. You can also use other literature reviews which are relevant to your topic. Both kinds of articles will be found in the professional literature. Periodicals such as Time, newspapers of any kind, and web sites will NOT count toward the required number of sources although you can use them as supporting references. It is important to remember these guidelines. For this assignment, a grid for you to complete will be provided/You will complete the grid filling out all the required information for each of your articles in your own words. Don't just cut and paste information from the article or other sources. It is important for you to understand the article. It is acceptable if some of the statistics are arcane or beyond your statistical expertise. However, you must know what the authors were trying to accomplish, the method they used, the results, and to make an informed judgment as to the viability of their project.
Final Literature Review:
You will write a literature review on your approved topic using, at minimum, the five sources you submitted in your annotated bibliography.
