Literature Review Draft

 

  • Literature Review Draft
    Preparation
    In addition to the other helpful links provided in Resources, we recommend you use an organizing tool from the Capella University Library Services and Tools page, such as the Scholarly Research Log, to help you track the theories, methods, and findings of the articles you have read.
    Note: Be sure to post your draft of the literature review in the Unit 4 discussion and incorporate feedback from your instructor and peers before submitting this assignment.
    Instructions
    For this assignment, submit the current draft of your literature review for instructor feedback and grading. Using your literature search question (LSQ), the annotated bibliography, and the abstracted outline to support your review, identify themes that emerge from your analysis of what we know so far about your topic. Use these themes to describe how your research builds on prior knowledge.
    For instance, if your LSQ is

Statement Of Problem, RQ Development, And Significance Of Proposed Study

 

Statement of Problem, RQ Development, and Significance of Proposed Study

This discussion has three parts. You will be asked to articulate the need for your study, known as the research problem and include a draft of your research question (RQ) as well as the potential significance of the research. As we have discussed, it is the job of the scientific investigator to identify new areas of inquiry and ways to gain new knowledge in these areas. Research questions are used by scientists to frame potential areas of inquiry. 

But before developing a research question, the research problem must be identified and justified. To justify the research question, scientists will consider the implications of the problem for those who have a stake in the results of the investigation. The significance of the findings will be presented to the stakeholders and sponsors of the investigation.

Your task is to consider what you have learned as

Reminder: You will incorporate feedback you receive during this discussion into your Unit 5 assignment submission.

Timing is critical. If you can, post earlythe earlier you post, the more time your instructor and peers will have to provide feedback and give you the opportunity to improve your literature review submission.

  • Submit a draft of your literature review for peer and instructor feedback.
  • You will receive feedback and suggestions to improve the draft in responses to your post.
  • Integrate instructor and peer feedback into a revised literature review before submitting your assignment for grading.

Note: Expect to revise the literature review document multiple times prior to incorporating it into the final project, which you will submit in Unit 10 as Chapter 2 of the Integrative Project. 

Upload your literature review as a Word document. In addition,

Abstracted Outline

 

Abstracted Outline

Begin your review of the theoretical and research literature to support for your Integrative Project: Chapters 15. Keep in mind that you will demonstrate, via a thorough review of the literature, what represents best practices in a practice or specialization in psychology.

At this point in the development of your literature review, you should be able to identify 1625 sources that support the development of the abstracted outline.

Create and post an abstracted outline of your Chapter 2 Literature Review for your Integrative Project. You should present one or two sentences for each main heading and subheading, explaining the key points to be covered under each section.

Format example:

Topic LSQ

Chapter 2
