Discuss specific examples from relevant literature

Reference no: EM131739494

The final project is meant for you to propose a hypothetical study. You are not and should not be conducting human subjects research for this project.

It is not necessary for the purposes of this assignment. All human subjects research requires written approval from the SNHU COCE Institutional Review Board in order to protect the welfare and ensure ethical treatment of the subjects.

Overview: In Milestone Three, you will submit an outline of your final project.

The outline should contain descriptions of the critical elements that you will include in the final paper and should be supported by at least six references.

References should be listed to illustrate the literature you reviewed in Section I of the paper. Additionally, you should use references to support your hypothesis and design selection.

The outline should be 3-4 pages long and contain all critical elements of the final paper. You should use the template provided in the Prompt section of this document to prepare the outline (see below). This template will also help you set up your paper for the final submission.

Prompt: The following template lists each of the sections for the final paper. As you create your outline, you should include each of these sections. However, since this is an outline, you do not need to include all the specific information. Instead, you should provide an overview of the main ideas that you intend to cover for each section of the paper.

For example, for an outline of the introduction, you might describe your topic and its importance and then move on to your articles. Rather than provide a complete analysis of the articles, you would summarize the main points of the articles and discuss a few points you will touch on in your critique of the articles. Another example might be looking at the protection of participants.

Here, rather than detailing your plan for participants, you might say something like "APA ethical standards for protecting participants will be followed." Then, mention one or two things that this plan would include.

You should be sure to have a clear thesis for the paper and a clear hypothesis, and you should have begun to develop a conclusion that summarizes what you would expect to find by completing this experiment. You should also be sure to include in-text citations and a reference page for the outline. Please remember that the outline should be 3-4 pages long.

Submit an outline of your final paper. An outline template is found in the Milestone Three Guidelines and Rubric document.

This template will also help you set your paper up for the final submission.

The outline should contain descriptions of the critical elements (as outlined in the Final Project Guidelines and Rubric) that you will include in the final paper and should be supported by at least six references.

The references can include any of the references you have submitted/used in previous modules and assignments.

References should be listed to illustrate the literature you reviewed in Section I of the paper. Additionally, you should use references to support your hypothesis and design selection. The outline should contain all critical elements of the final paper.

For additional details, please refer to the Milestone Three Guidelines and Rubric document and the Final Project Guidelines and Rubric document in the Assignment Guidelines and Rubrics section of the course.
