Assignment:

Find two peer-reviewed journal articles that have to do with mindfulness. Using these two articles, you will write 6 to 10-sentence summaries for the annotated bibliography. Include in the bibliography a shortened title for the article, the APA citation for the article, and the summary. Articles found on the web usually do not meet the requirement for being peer-reviewed. Check this article out if you are unsure if the article you are looking at meets this requirement. Google Scholar will help you find these but try to use these databases (I prefer PsycINFO).

Your annotated bibliographies should look something like this:

Shortened Title

Bergh, C., & Sodersten, P. (1996). Anorexia nervosa, self-starvation and the reward of stress. Nature Medicine, 2(1), 21-22.
