I HAVE ATTACHED THE ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY AND OUTLINE
LITERATURE REVIEW: FINAL SUBMISSION ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS
OVERVIEW
The purpose of this Literature Review is for you to create a scholarly piece of graduate-level
research and writing which conforms to current APA format. Competency in current APA format
is required of all Business graduates of Liberty University, as set forth by policy of both the
graduate faculty and the administration.
A literature review does not attempt to answer a research question, it simply compares the
research findings, trends, and debates regarding a fairly narrow topic. You will explore the
similarities and differences in the research findings regarding your topic.
You will write a Literature Review of 1800-2100 words (excluding the title page, abstract, and
reference pages) on the same topic you researched for the Literature Review: Annotated
Bibliography and Outline assignment.
The paper must be written in strict conformance to current APA standards, and must utilize at
least 10 scholarly sources.
