Write a research summary for each article in APA format (two summaries total). Your submissions should be in essay form and APA format and should mirror the student summary example. You can submit each summary separately or in a combined document. If separate, it will look like your second submission erases the first, but I can see both. If you submit one document, please make sure each summary has its own cover and reference page.
Your summaries should thoroughly answer all of the following questions:
In at least 2 sentences, briefly describe the purpose of the study. What did the author(s) research, and why? What was the goal of the research? Why is the topic important to study?
In at least 3 sentences, describe how the author(s) went about conducting their research. Who makes up the sample (e.g., individuals, cities, etc.)? What was the sample size (e.g., people, cases, etc.)? What type of research did the author(s) conduct (e.g., interviews, surveys, analysis of existing case records, program evaluation, etc.)?
In at least 5 sentences, summarize the main findings of the study.
In at least 3 sentences, describe what the findings mean for policy. For example, do the findings suggest that existing laws or policies should be changed, and how, or what action should agencies or organizations take to improve or alleviate the problem?
