For this assignment you will apply the first step of the scientific method by identifying a topic and explaining its importance in the field of psychology. Choose a topic of interest to you in psychology that is relevant to your current or future career, and search the databases in the Ashford University Library for a published peer-reviewed literature review on the topic. Evaluate the literature review and describe whether or not it provides multiple perspectives and or results on the topic, or if the author is including only those studies that prove his or her original hypothesis. Using the literature review as a reference, compare the characteristics of the different research methods that have been used to study this topic. Summarize what is known about the topic based on the evidence presented in the literature review.<\/p>\n

You may choose to include an experimental study which was included in the literature review you used in the Week One assignment by searching the reference list for experimental research studies on the topic. However, it is also acceptable to find and include an experimental research study on the topic that is not included in that literature review.<\/p>\n Identify the specific experimental research design used in the study. Summarize the main points of the experimental research study including information on the hypothesis, sampling strategy, research design, statistical analysis, results, and conclusion(s). Evaluate the published experimental research study focusing on and identifying the specific threats to validity that apply to the chosen study. Explain whether or not these threats were adequately addressed by the researchers. Describe how the researchers applied ethical principles in the research study.<\/p>\n The Research and Critique an Experimental Study<\/p>\n Carefully review the Grading Rubric\u00a0(Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.<\/a> for the criteria that will be used to evaluate your assignment.<\/p>\n DUE 2\/4\/19<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Prior to beginning work on this assignment, review the qualitative and quantitative research designs encountered so far in this course.<\/p>\n For your literature review, you will select one design from each of the following categories.<\/p>\n Category<\/strong><\/p>\n Non-experimental<\/strong><\/p>\n Quantitative experimental<\/strong><\/p>\n Qualitative<\/strong><\/p>\n Mixed methods<\/strong><\/p>\n Designs<\/p>\n Descriptive Pretest-posttest control group Ethnography Explanatory Visit the Research Methods research guide in the Ashford University Library and search the databases for a minimum of one peer-reviewed journal article published within the last 10 years about each of the research designs you selected. The articles must not be research studies using the designs. Instead, they must be about how to conduct a study using the design. Examples of acceptable articles for this assignment are listed at the Suggested Articles tab in the Research Methods research guide.<\/p>\n In your paper, briefly outline the topic you selected for your Final Research Proposal in Week One and apply the scientific method by suggesting both a specific research question and a hypothesis for the topic. Evaluate your chosen peer-reviewed articles summarizing each and explaining how the research design described could be useful for designing original research on your topic. Compare and contrast the paradigms or worldviews inherent in the methodology associated with each research design. Apply professional standards and situate yourself as a researcher by identifying which of these approaches best fits with your worldview.<\/p>\n The Research Methods Literature Review<\/p>\n Carefully review the Grading Rubric\u00a0(Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.<\/a> for the criteria that will be used to evaluate your assignment.<\/p>\n Due 2\/11\/19<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Prior to beginning work on this assignment, be sure to have read all the required resources for the week.<\/p>\n Locate a peer-reviewed qualitative research study in the Ashford University Library on the topic you chose in Week One for your Final Research Proposal. You may choose to use a qualitative study that was included in the literature review you used in the Week One assignment by searching the reference list for qualitative research studies on the topic. It is also acceptable to utilize a qualitative research study on your topic that was not included in your literature review.<\/p>\n Once you have located an appropriate qualitative study, identify the specific qualitative research design used. Summarize the main points of the study including information on the research question, sampling strategy, research design, data analysis method(s), findings, and conclusion(s). Evaluate the published qualitative research study focusing on and identifying the researcher\u2019s paradigm or worldview and any evidence of reflexivity described in the report. Explain whether or not potential biases were adequately addressed by the researchers. Describe how the researchers applied ethical principles in the research study.<\/p>\n The Research and Critique a Qualitative Study<\/p>\n Carefully review the Grading Rubric\u00a0(Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.<\/a> for the criteria that will be used to evaluate your assignment.<\/p>\n DUE 2\/25\/19<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The written research proposal will be created based on a narrowly defined aspect of the topic selected in Week One. A research proposal is a detailed plan for a specific study to be conducted at a future time. It is the document which potential researchers typically submit to an institutional review board (IRB) for ethical review and approval, and\/or to funding agencies to secure financial support for a research effort. Because it is a plan for research which has not yet been conducted, the Methods section should be written in the future tense and should not contain any hypothetical results. The paper must address all of the components required in the Methods section of a research proposal. The following actions must be completed.<\/p>\n The following headings for the required sections and subsections must appear in the paper. In accordance with APA style, all references listed must be cited in the text of the paper.<\/p>\n Attention Students:<\/strong> The Masters of Arts in Psychology program is utilizing the Pathbrite portfolio tool as a repository for student scholarly work in the form of signature assignments completed within the program. After receiving feedback for this Research Proposal, please implement any changes recommended by the instructor, go to Pathbrite,\u00a0(Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.<\/a> and upload the revised Research Proposal to the portfolio. Use the Pathbrite Quick-Start Guide<\/a> to create an account if you do not already have one. The upload of signature assignments will take place after completing each course. Be certain to upload revised signature assignments throughout the program as the portfolio and its contents will be used in other courses and may be used by individual students as a professional resource tool.
