Instructions
This week you will begin to write your research proposal by writing developing your research question, objectives, and hypotheses and your literature review. You will use this writing for your week 8 proposal.
Part One: Write out research question(s), research objective(s), and hypothesis(es) for each research question (include null hypothesis for each). Give brief overview of study design including theory/model and briefly what methods you will use. **You should use a primary research study design (ex. cohort, case-control, or qualitative, etc.). Systematic literature reviews wilt only be an acceptable study design if the research question warrants it meaning if you are asking a research question that can take the current literature and analyze it in a new way. Full methods will be submitted in week 8 but I want to make sure you are headed in the right direction.
Part Two: Literature Review. Before you begin, read "Research and writing the literature review" attached document. Use the APUS library to search for full-text articles. Find at least four (4) primary (not reviews) research studies that are directly relevant to your research question. Complete the attached article summary table for all four articles (more if you would like). After completing the table, review the "Worked Example of a Literature Review" document attached. Choose at least three (3), but more is fine, to write your literature review section. You will write a complete Literature Review section for submission.
Submit both the article summary table and a separate document with Part One and Literature Review section. Submission should be in APA formatting.
