Use PsycINFO from the SF State Library to locate an article on a developmental topic that interests you. If you can’t think of a topic, skim the textbook’s index for ideas.
Try to find an article that reports the results of a research study rather than one that is theoretical or a review of other research. Once you find an article, read it as carefully as you can. Depending on where the article was published, it may be difficult to understand because most journals publish articles written by researchers for other researchers to read. Do your best to answer the following questions:
Using APA format, what is the article’s complete reference?
If the article reports the results of a research study, what type of study is it? Be as specific and complete as possible. For instance, is the research quantitative or qualitative? Is the study descriiptive, correlational, or experimental?
Who were the participants in the study? How were they selected? Do they constitute a representative sample of the population?
What were the variables that were investigated in the study? If age was a variable, how was it investigated (e.g., cross-sectional study, longitudinal study)?
If the study involved quantitative data, what types of statistics were used?
What was the study’s major hypothesis or research question? What were the major conclusions?
