Overview
As you begin your analysis, it is important for you to understand the purpose of the study so that you can identify, describe, and discuss the data collection and data analysis used by researchers. For this milestone, dive deep into the proposed research methods used by the authors of the study you have selected to analyze for your final project.
Prompt
For this milestone assignment, address the following in the article you have selected for the final project:
- Describe the purpose of the study, including the research questions and hypothesis.
- Identify whether the study design is experimental or observational. Support your identification with examples from the study.
- Identify the methods used to collect the data and explain why the methods are appropriate based on the research question.
- Identify the data collected as quantitative or categorical. Support your identification with examples from the study.
- Discuss the weaknesses of the data collection method used. Support your discussion with specific details.
What to Submit
This milestone assignment should be submitted as a 1-page paper with 12-point Times New Roman font, double spacing, and one-inch margins, using APA formatting and citation style guidelines.
