Write a 100- to 500-word answer to each of the following questions Using the conventional Introduction, Body, and Conclusion sections of a paper (e.g. Parts 1-3 are the body):
PART I:
•What is the purpose of each of the sections in a typical research article?
•What are the steps to critically evaluate research articles and how does the scientific method help you do this?
PART II:
•What is the importance of research in behavioral sciences?
•What is the relationship between applied research and basic research? Provide an example, from your selected studies, of how each contributes to the body of knowledge.
•What ethical issues can you identify in the selected articles? How were the issues addressed or neglected?
PART III:
•Identify three possible research topics that you might want to explore further as you go through this course.
•List appropriate sources, including databases that you might use when exploring these topics.
Use the rubric for papers that is located in the Instructor’s Policies as a checklist to ensure you are completing each one of the elements listed in it. Additionally, review the UOPX policies about academic writing at the master level (e.g., UOPX writing expectations table in Annoucnement messages in week 1).
