Assignment 4: Review PaperTopic Proposal & Reference Page
The purpose of this assignment is to provide you with the opportunity to select a topic in the particular area in which you have an occupational or research interest and to locate a minimum of ten scholarly references. A helpful Web site for organizing and writing a literature review is www.wisc.edu/writing/Handbook/ReviewofLiterature.html.
You may also want to review the following documents that are available in the Doc Sharing area of the course:
Topic Proposal (MY TOPIC: ****THE EFFECTS OF BIRTH ORDER ON A PERSONS PERSONALITY***)
Write one to two paragraphs (a) summarizing the problem area (be specific in defining the problem) (b) describing what you already know about the topic and c) why you have chosen this topic for your literature review. The topic should apply psychological research to an individual organizational or social problem. Include a working title and the objective of the paper.
Reference Page (**I INCLUDED MY REFERENCE PAGE BUT THEY ARE NOT IN THE CORRECT ORDER)
Search for literature on your selected topic and create a Reference Page containing at least 10 scholarly references. A good way to begin searching for relevant literature is to search for key words related to your topic in a research database. Narrow your search to articles in peer-reviewed journals. Another good idea is to check the list of References at the end of an article to find other relevant work.
