Step 1: Find a scholarly article
� Select an appropriate topic, and search the APUS online library databases to find an article from a �peer-reviewed� evidence-based scholarly journal.
� If you have questions on appropriate types of articles, you can use the library tutorials or contact a librarian.
� You can find a SAMPLE scholarly paper under the Resources link in our class:
� The Role of Emotional Numbing in Sexual Functioning Among Veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars (Nunnink, S. E., Goldwaser, G., Afan, N., Nievergelt, C. M., & Baker, D. G., 2010).Whileyou cannot use this article for your assignment, you will be able to see the type of paper that would be acceptable. Please note that the article is a report on a scientific investigation, which is what makes it evidence-based, and that it is not an expert opinion article or a review of many studies.
� Reading the abstract (or summary included in the introductory paragraph of each library source) will help you narrow your search.
� Once you have found an acceptable article, read it completely.
� Read the abstract and introduction at the beginning and the conclusion at the end of the article first. The topic and hypothesis will be provided in these sections. Then read the methodology and data/results sections. Reading the introduction, summary, and abstract will help you better understand and follow the data-heavy results section.
Step 2: Summarize the scholarly article
� Write a 1-page summary of the single scholarly article you selected, including:
� The hypothesis of the study on which the article reports.
� How the study was conducted, including:
� The group of people researched and written about (colleges students? adolescents? the elderly? military members? sexual minorities? etc.)
� The research method used (i.e. naturalistic observation, lab experiment, survey, etc.)
� The results of the study, the interpretation of the data by the authors and any conclusions they include at the end of the article.
� Edit and revise your summary for content, grammar, and APA format. Using APA format, identify the article title, the article authors, the journal in which the article was published, the date of publication, and the focus of the research.
