1. The articles you are supposed to finding and reviewing should be peer-reviewed.
Not all articles are peer reviewed. Please make sure they are. Here is how you should do so.
Click here: A-Z Databases (kean.edu)
Scroll down to “psycinfo”
click on “Advanced search”
Scroll to where it says “peer reviewed” and check the box next to it.
Go back up and search for the articles
Tip: You can also select “choose databases” and then “select all” if you want more results to show up.
2. Please upload all articles along with your papers. In the past, students have used chat-gpt, which generated articles which didn’t even exist. As a result, papers will not be accepted unless they are
accompanied by the PDFs of the articles you found. If Canvas won’t let you upload them with your paper, just email them to me, no problem. This is not a difficult activity.
Attached is a very rushed, but I believe useful resource for writing your next two papers. If you read this and follow it, assuming you understand your articles properly, you should improve after reading this document.
By the way, you do not necessarily have to discuss applying the information to public policy for the next two assignments. Let me know if you have any questions.
