1. Identify how the researcher addresses the five following areas of the selected journal article, using the attached “Evidence Table”:

• background or introduction

• review of the literature

• discussion of methodology

• data analysis

• researcher’s conclusion

2. Critique whether the evidence presented in each section of the journal article supports the researcher’s conclusion.

Note: The attached “Evidence Table” may be used to address B1. B2-B5 may be addressed on the same page under the table.

Note: Try to think about how the first four sections in the B1 table support the fifth section, the conclusion.

3. Explain the protection of human subjects and cultural considerations of the journal article.

4. Identify strengths and limitations of the study.
