Research a Researcher

Oftentimes, when moving on to a 4 year university, psychology students join research labs to gain research experience. In this assignment you will look at professors conducting research you would be interested in enough to join their lab at the school(s) you hope to transfer to. List your top 3 choices for professors, what school(s) they teach at, and explain why you chose them. This is a TOTAL of 3 professors, regardless of where they teach (not 3 per school).

Of those 3 professors, find a research article published by one them and read it. Provide a full apa citation and minimum one page review of the article. What was the research about? How was it conducted? Who were the participants (or animals)? What were the findings (what would the main summary argument be)? Provide your thoughts on this study (the critical reading questions type section). Please upload a copy of the research article and the written assignment by the due date.

1. Assignment:
A) This week’s research journal has two parts.
For the first part, you need to write two summaries of any two sources you have read so far for your research. Please make sure you use APA. Each summary should cover the main points and be no longer that 300 words. Include the name of the article and it’s authors with each summary.

2.    Details
My major: Project Management
My old research question:
How the Balanced Score Card performance management system can strengthen enterprise management ?
Professors remark:
It is well researched. I have just entered that question into the Google search and got A LOT of answers and articles that deal with this question. You need to change the focus of this problem and research something that has not received a lot of attention yet. And perhaps focusing on one particular company?
Also consider the ways you are going to collect the data to help you answer your re-vised RQ.

3.    My requirements:
You can change the research question according to the professor’s advice or come up with a new research topic yourself, but the research question must relate to my major. Please don’t involve too difficult research questions and research methods because its my first time to write a research paper and the number of pages in this paper is relatively small.
