[SOLVED] Maternal Mortality Rates
The first page should be an APA formatted title page. You will need to get 2 sources of information, both from scholarly journal articles. If you are new to journals I STRONGLY RECOMMEND you talk to a librarian to help you find appropriate journal articles. I recommend beginning with Psych Article and EBSCO host electronic online data bases. Even if you are experienced, journal articles take many readings to understand content- thus allow TIME to read, re-read, re-read, process and summarize. You are not expected to understand everything, particularly the statistics, but you need to get a general sense of the hypothesis/es, sample, methods and findings. Number 5 (below) gives criteria to help you do this — Summarizing journal articles (do this for EACH article): USE YOUR OWN WORDS!!! Name the type of research being conducted (longitudinal, cross-sectional, correlation, case study, experiment, etc.). Although you will not entirely understand the statistics in the results section of your articles, this section will reveal the type of research design that was used. State the authors hypothesis or hypotheses Discuss the sample and how this applies/does not apply to entire population Discuss the methods & procedures used (how the study was conducted) Discuss the findings/results Comment on results in relation to the authors original hypothesis/es Comment on how these results apply to your topic The last section of your paper, or conclusion, will integrate all youve learned from the 2 sources youve reviewed in relation to your topic. Personal comments can be made in this section so you can now use I whereas in reviewing the literature you should write objectively. USE APA STYLE FOR TITLE PAGE, IN-TEXT AND END OF PAPER REFERENCE LIST.
