This assignment will be used to assess students learning on the following course objectives:

Apply appropriate strategies of inquiry and exploration in order to find, evaluate, and use information ethically in the study of an issue in psychology.

Assignment Prompt

This Library assignment provides an opportunity for students to gain insights into the differences between Primary and Secondary sources and citing APA style. During the library orientation class you will be shown how to find a primary source and a secondary source through the library web-site and shown how to cite sources (both Primary and Secondary) in APA format. The written assignment must be done on a word processor, no hand written assignments will be accepted.

The steps for completing the Library assignment

After orientation to the Library web-site, choose an article on a topic that interests you. Make sure that the article is considered a PRIMARY SOURCE. This would be found in an academic journal ONLY. The author(s) must be the researcher(s) reporting on a specific study and its results. A Primary Source would include the following: a review of the literature, a description of methodology including the sample selection process, a description of the statistical analysis, and a discussion of the results.

PLEASE NOTE: (3 pts)

You may not use an abstract instead of the complete article for either source.

Your Primary Source cannot be older than 6 years, and must be at least 5 pages long!

You cannot use someone’s Doctoral or Master’s Thesis for this assignment.

Then either using the library website or another internet site, find a Secondary source article which is on the same topic as your primary source. (3 pts)

PLEASE NOTE:

Your Secondary Source cannot be older than 6 years, and must be at least 2 pages long.
