The following two research articles will be part of this activity …
https://scholarworks.calstate.edu/downloads/4f16c335k
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8045778/
You will be focusing on one of these for the steps below, and you can choose which one. Look at the tasks described below, then check out both papers. Decide which one you feel most comfortable summarizing. By the way, if the experiments have more than one experiment, you can focus on just one experiment. So find the experiment you most like!
Summarize one experiment from one of these articles in your own words (with proper APA citations). Your summary should include all of the following information:
Discuss the theory was the research based on (Note, these are sometimes not explicitly stated. You may have to figure it out once you identify the hypothesis)
Highlight at least one of the hypotheses the experiment was meant to address
Discuss all relevant variables, and specify if they were dependent or independent variables
What research method was being used to address the hypothesis?
What was the result of the research? Did the result confirm the hypothesis or not?
Imagine you are now the researcher, and do the following:
Propose an experiment that could extend this research further.
Explain why you think it would be a good idea to conduct this follow up experiment.
To get the best grade, try to justify your idea in the context of the theory. How might your experiment provide a better understanding of what is happening? That is, rather than just saying “I’d do it again with more participants” try to come up with another prediction that flows from the theory and suggest a test for it.
Your paper should be between 500 and 800 words (excluding reference list and citations). If your work is noticeably outside these guidelines, you will lose marks. The summary section of your paper is worth 4 marks, your research extension is worth 2 marks, so the amount of words devoted to each should roughly follow that proportion (2/3 summary, 1/3 research extension.)
