Question Description
Writing Summaries of Scientific Journal Articles (Article Summary Papers)
The paper will be worth up to three of your eight points, depending on how carefully you follow the instructions and rubric below. The paper needs to be between 800-1,000 words- no more and no less. You must also use 12-point Times New Roman font. You will need to save your file as either Microsoft Word format or rich text format (.rtf) in order for the summary to be uploaded to Webcourses. It is your responsibility to ensure that your file is saved correctly and in the correct file format before the deadline. It is also your responsibility to ensure that you can successfully upload your essay into the system prior to the deadline. Do not wait until the last minute to upload your essays in case you experience technical problems.
At the top of your summary you must include your name along with the name of the article you selected and the name of the journal that the article was taken from. Your summary should not include any direct quotations from the article you selected. Please put everything in your own words and do not summarize the abstract section of the article. Your articles should summarize a recent research journal article (published within the last five years) from one of the American Psychological Association (APA) journals listed in the table below. Please note that you will receive a zero if your summary is on a paper that is not from one of the journals listed below and/or it is not clear from your title page whether you used one of these journals.
If you upload your file in any format that is not Microsoft Word (.doc or .docx) or rich text format (.rtf) your paper will receive a zero. Also, you will receive deductions if you do not follow all of the instructions carefully (see below grading rubric).
