Each student will read and review one full article for each Article Review. Articles will be provided in the additional reading section of the course. The purpose of the assignment is to provide extra knowledge and perspective beyond what is found in the textbook. In your review, you should include two components: 

1. A brief summary outlining the major points of the article you read. Be sure to include details about how the research was done, who was tested, the conceptual and measured variables, and the conclusions of the authors. 

2. An analysis of how the paper relates to the topics we have discussed in class. Be sure to say what concepts from the class are related and describe the topics as they were discussed in class and/or in the book. Be sure to discuss your answer in detail.
