Journal Article Critique

Instructions

With this assignment, it is the actual writing and presentation of the author's arguments and interpretations that I want you to consider- not the composition or limitations of the study itself.For this assignment, you are going to do a thorough critique of one journal article.Make sure to analyze every aspect of it- from the title, to the way they present their research question, to the way they wrote their methodology, to their use of subheadings, to how they wrap up the paper in a thoughtful conclusion. Look at their use of language - consider how they present the process they went through. Does everything make sense to you? How could the author(s) have done better? Read it a few times if you can. Be critical! Even great articles have weaknesses, and even boring/monotonous articles have good points. Remember, the goal of this exercise is not to just summarize the article or give your opinion about the topic.Take this opportunity to learn from other researchers and try to understand their thought process, from the inception of their idea to how they discuss their data analysis. Think about how you might be able to apply these skills to your own brainstorming, planning, and writing.The entire document must be in APA formatting. That means 12 point font, one inch margins, double spacing, page headers, and a standard APA cover page (see APA examples in module)- but you don't need an author's note or abstract. APA adherence will be part of your grade! Do not use bullets or lists in your critique- it should be in paragraph form using full sentences. You do not need any external resources for this aside from your article. Please do not use contractions or the first person for this exercise (for example: I liked this paper a lot).Article to critique URLhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4596063/pdf/nihms708488.pdf
