sometimes thinking about something you are interested in within the field of Kinesiology and explore the literature to find primary sources (a paper where the authors conducted the research and reported the results themselves…different than a review paper that collects and summarizes multiple papers) that relate to your topic.

For each paper, you are to summarize (in your own words…DO NOT copy and paste) the following elements (based upon the Examine.com activity…this section can be bullet points and single-spaced):

What was the main hypothesis? (What were the research questions?)
Summarize the study design (methods)
Design, method, population, sample size, treatments, measures, analysis
Summarize the results
What are your conclusions about the study?
Quality, results, limitations
APA citation for each paper

Section 2.
You are to write a short (2-3 pages) thematic review of literature that outlines your topic and identifies 2-3 themes based upon the review of your articles from section

1. At the end of the review of the research review, you are to write 2-3 research questions that are based upon gaps or areas of improvement that are grounded in your review. You are to include in-text citations and a reference list formatted using APA 7th edition guidelines.
