Step 8: Prepare a 3- to 5-page summary of the article fully paraphrased in your own words and your own writing style and structure. Changing a few words from the original is not fully paraphrasing. Be sure to address the following questions in your summary:
• What is the purpose of the research? (Address specifics regarding the overall purpose of the research in question.)
• What hypothesis is tested? (Provide a clear statement of the researchers’ prediction.)
• How did the researchers investigate their research question? (Provide details regarding the study methodology.)
• What are the pertinent results of the manipulation? (What were the findings and conclusions drawn?)
• What is your personal opinion of the study conducted? Should it be repeated? What could be improved?
• What is your overall impression of the work? What are the implications of the study for the practice of counseling psychology?
Your summary should be written as a coherent essay (do not format as a bullet list of answers to these questions). You may include additional insights in your analysis, but you must address these key issues.
Step 9: Prepare your Article Review according to the following guidelines:
• Structure your paper utilizing APA style (7th Edition); this includes title page, headings, in-text citations, reference page, and general paper format (1-inch margins, double-spaced, appropriately sized sans serif or serif fonts – e.g., 12 Times Roman). An abstract is not required.
• Apply sound writing mechanics: write with clarity, paying attention to spelling, grammar, and syntax.
• Submit to your Assignment Folder as a single document in either Microsoft Word, PDF, or RTF format.
