The article critique should be on a word document
Article Critique
100 points
The article critique should be on a word document and submitted as a word document. Copying and pasting your article critique in a submission or turning in a PDF or any other form besides Microsoft word will be given a zero.
If you turn in the wrong assignment (i.e. – the rubric or a paper for a different class or a blank document, or an unreadable document) and the due date has passed you will receive a zero for the assignment. You have up to the due date to submit the correct assignment should you submit the wrong one. It is your responsibility to double check and make sure you turned in the correct assignment before the due date. I suggest logging out and logging back in and then clicking on the assignment you submitted to ensure it is the correct one. I allow unlimited submissions and I will grade the last submission before the due date. So if you submitted the wrong assignment, feel free to submit the correct one. If you realize that you forgot to cite in-text go ahead and fix and re-submit the assignment as long as it is before the due date. All submissions after the due date and time will be ignored.
Assignments are to be completed in APA 7th edition formatting unless specifically stated. You do not need an abstract, conclusion, or any other section besides a title page, body of your paper (with in-text citations), and a reference page if necessary. To review APA formatting please visit Modules < Links & tools < APA 7 format. Your paper should look EXACTLY like the sample paper I posted under “APA 7 format” except for the extra sections you don’t need which I state above. I do not accept late assignments. Late assignments will receive a zero. You may turn in your assignments as early as week 1. You need to use 2 credible outside sources for the article critique from a peer-reviewed journal or book. You will lose 5 points per outside source not included.
Please choose, locate, and read/analyze 1 of the 5 articles below:

Please use APA formatting and limit direct quotations to 2 per paper.
Introduction:
a. Identify the reference in the article (use APA format) (this is just the reference of this article – not the whole reference list)
b. Describe the qualifications of the authors (such as research expertise, clinical experience, educational preparation)
c. Discuss the clarity and conciseness of the article title (type of study, variables, and population identified). Did it clearly indicate the focus of the study and create an interest in reading the research?
d. Discuss the quality of the abstract (includes purpose; highlights design, sample, intervention [if applicable], and key results)
Problem: Include both background and significance of the problem and problem statement. (You can look up the articles the author uses and cite those or cite as secondary sources).
State the purpose from the article.
Examine the literature review.
a. Are relevant previous studies and theories described? Provide an example of each.
b. Are the references current? (Number of sources in last 5 years?)
c. Are the studies critiqued?
d. Describe the current knowledge (what is known and not known) about the research problem.
Examine the study framework or theoretical perspective.
a. Is the framework explicitly expressed, or must the reviewer extract the framework from implicit statements in the literature review.
b. Is the framework based on scientific, substantive, or tentative theory?
c. Does the framework identify, define, and describe relationships among the concepts of interest?
d. Is a map of the framework provided for clarity? If a map is not presented, develop a map that represents the study's framework and describe the map.
e. Link the study variables to the relevant concepts in the map.
f. How is the framework related to the body of knowledge?
List any research objectives, questions, or hypotheses.
Identify and define (conceptually and operationally) the major study variables. Identify the study variables by examining the purpose and the objectives, questions, or hypotheses. Examine the results section to identify additional variables. Identify the type of each variable: independent, dependent, or research.
a. Independent variables: Identify and define conceptually and operationally
b. Dependent variables: Identify and define conceptually and operationally
c. Research variables: Identify and define conceptually and operationally
Identify attributes/demographic variables and other relevant terms.
Describe the research design.
a. Identify the specific design of the study.
b. Identify the treatment or intervention if appropriate for the study conducted.
c. How were subjects assigned to groups if groups were studied?
d. Were pilot study findings used to design this study? If yes, briefly discuss the pilot and the changes made in this study based on the pilot.
Describe the sample and setting.
a. Identify inclusion and exclusion sample criteria.
b. Indicate the method used to obtain the sample.
c. State the sample size. Indicate if a power analysis was conducted to determine the sample size. Identify the refusal to participate number and percentage.
d. Identify the characteristics of the sample.
e. Identify the sample mortality (or attrition) number and percentage.
f. Indicate the type of consent obtained and institutional review board approval.
g. Identify the study setting and indicate whether it is appropriate for the study purpose.

d. List each objective, question, or hypothesis and: (1) identify the focus (descriiption, relationships, or differences) of each objective, question, or hypothesis and (2) list the statistical procedures, the statistics, specific results, and probability value (p = ) in a table as shown next.
Purpose of Analysis Statistical Procedure Statistic Result Probability (p)
Difference between var1 & var2 t-test T p =
Difference between treatment & comparison groups Analysis of variance F p =
Association/Relationship of var1 & var2 Pearson correlation r p =
