This paper assignment requires you to summarize and respond to a psychology research paper ofyour own choosingChoose a psychology related article from a peer reviewed journal. This article shouldnot come from a magazine. Please note that Psychology Today is a magazine andtherefore is not appropriate for this assignment. You should use the library’s electronicdatabases to find an article – the Psychology and Behavioral Sciences collection is yourbest choice. Be sure to limit your search to those available in full-text (you can print outthe whole article). Some of you can use the journal article you selected for your firstpaper if you successfully found a peer reviewed article in that assignment. The articlemust include a “methods section” which will indicate that it is reporting an actualstudy. If you choose another article, you may want to run it by me first.2. Read the article. You may need to do this several times. I suggest making notes as you read.3. The paper should be roughly two pages in length, typed and double spaced. I’m lessconcerned with the length than I am with the content. However, I can’t imagine this can bedone effectively in less than a page and a half or so.4. The first half (3/4 to 1 page) of the assignment is to write a summary of the article you haveread. This should be your description of the article you read. It is important that yousummarize the main point or points of the article and that anyone reading your summarywill know what the original article was about. Your summary should include the conclusionsthe researchers reached from their study. Overall, you need to answer three questions: What did they want to find out? How did they study that question? What did they find?I will be grading this section of your paper based on how well you understand the article andhow well you are able to communicate that understanding. You do not need to give medetailed descriptions of experiments and please do not quote or paraphrase the article in anattempt to summarize accurately.5. The second part (1 page or so) of the assignment is for you to write your own thoughts,reactions, ideas, etc. about the article you read. This is the more important part of thepaper. If you do not complete this part you cannot get higher than a C on the paper.You should include the following: A critique of the research methods used in the article. You might be critical of howthe research was carried out or you might say it was done well – either way you needto support your position.
