Homework: Article Critique

Overview

*For your article critique homework, you will have to choose an empirical article reporting original findings that researchers have discovered. Do not choose any review articles, book chapters, or magazine articles. Also, the key is to evaluate each component of the paper (so I would expect 1) a brief summary, 2) an evaluation of the research questions, methods, results, and discussion/implications, and 3) an overall verdict). Typically, you should discuss a lot about the method section evaluating different types of validity: internal validity (can you make a causal claim?), external validity (can you generalize the findings?), and construct validity (are the measures used adequate?)

Description: This homework requires you to critique a piece of published empirical literature in developmental psychology.

Purpose: Since peer-reviewed empirical research is the backbone of developmental psychology, you as a graduate student must become familiar with how to evaluate such research, so that they can consume and disseminate the research appropriately. This homework will allow you to practice critiquing empirical research.

Instructions

Details:

A. Select an empirical article published in the field of developmental psychology within the last 3 years.

B. Read the article thoroughly, paying close attention to research questions and/or hypotheses, the method, results, and interpretations of the author.

C. Write the critique (see format below).

D. The instructor will not proofread papers, but it is acceptable for a friend to proofread for clarity, grammar, and spelling. In addition, the Liberty University Online Writing Center can help with overall writing and flow. You can find the link to the Online Writing Center on the Article Critique Homework page under Article Critique Resource.
