I’m an undergraduate and I have to do a Literature Review Paper. I’ve chosen the topic on (correlation) Interrelation between recidivist dui offenders and alcohol addiction, and I’ve use these first two resources thus far: https://www.samhsa.gov/data/sites/default/files/cbhsq-reports/NSDUHDetailedTabs2018R2/NSDUHDetTabsSect5pe2018.htm#tab5-4a (Links to an external site.)
https://www.alcoholproblemsandsolutions.org/dwi-and-dui-courts-are-effective-they-reduce-repeat-dwidui-offenses/. I have to use more peer reviewed articles or journals when it comes to the final Literature Review paper; however, the peer review direct quotes can only make up five percent (5%) of the total submission…meaning if submission is 500 words =25 words for direct quote or 750 words =37 words for direct quotes & so on (if not then I will receive a zero & final the class) For this week, it’s two assignments due complete the following steps of the research process. The first assignment is use the article or scientific fact that I posted in my first discussion (please attached) to propose a research scenario on the given topic. Please summarize the following: Identify one question that is unanswered from this article
-
- For example, if I am posting a link on an article on the most common crime in America (Links to an external site.) and learn that it is property crime, I might ask: What can be done to effectively reduce property crime?
- Next- identify the following for your unanswered question, as if you were a researcher seeking to answer that question:
- Your hypothesis-how would you go about answering your question?
- Your independent variable
- Your dependent variable
- How you would operationalize (measure) your variables?
- Whether you are asking a basic or applied research question
- Whether you would collect quantitative or qualitative data and why
- What evidence you would look for to see if your hypothesis is correct
- A brief conclusion-explaining how answering your question would benefit criminal justice policy or procedures.
Next assignment, I have complete the following steps of the research process by addressing the following questions and tasks:1. Identify the topic you have selected for this assignment.
- Discuss your preliminary goals for your research-In other words, what is the purpose of your research? What would you like to learn about this topic? How would you like to use this information in the future (either to conduct your own research or perhaps in a professional setting)? In other words, would you have a basic research or applied research focus for your assignment? Then use some of the key research terms from week one to help set up a framework for our research by doing the following: Identifying the independent variable (the presumed cause) & Identifying the dependent variable (the presumed effect). I think I will use applied research focus for my assignment.
- 3. Finally, at least one citation for a resource you are planning to use for your final paper and describe briefly (2-3 sentences) how using this resource helps illustrate your information literacy competency.
- The professor is expecting APA format, double space, Times Roman, 12 size font.
- Please see attached documents. I would like to have one of the assignment done today (if possible) and the other can be completed by tomorrow morning (if necessary).
