Topic for this assignment is Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for anxiety disorders.
In the discussion for Module One, you submitted potential topics for your capstone research proposal. For the Milestone One Resource Collection, you will collect potential peer-reviewed resources to support your ideas in the proposal. You will describe these resources in a paper as you discuss how they relate to the purpose of the project you are proposing and your research questions. In this paper, you may summarize each article in preparation for the synthesis that is necessary for the Milestone Two literature review. Refer to the Module Two resources for additional information on how to develop research questions and write a psychology research paper. Review the Final Project Guidelines and Rubric and the Final Project and Milestone Alignment Guide to see how the critical elements in this milestone prepare you to meet the final project requirements and course outcomes used to evaluate your final capstone project.
The final project is meant for you to propose a hypothetical study. You are not and should not be conducting human-subject research for this project. It is not necessary for the purposes of this assignment. All human-subject research requires written approval from the SNHU COCE Institutional Review Board in order to protect the welfare and ensure ethical treatment of the subjects.
