Annotated Bibliography – Schizophrenia

Topic is SCHIZOPHRENIA

In paragraph format (without the questions), provide the following information using 250 words or less. Use Past Tense when discussing the research process and findings (Use the word Was instead of Is, Had instead of Have, etc). Include Both quantitative and qualitative research (interviews, case studies)
Select only single study research:
If you do not see the words purpose, participants, data collection/analysis, findings, etc – you have not selected single study research. Do not use meta-analysis, systematic review, data-set studies, discussion, commentary type articles, PhD dissertations, or books.
Add the article reference above the summary. Per APA format, add the hyperlink to all DOI numbers. Use this format for DOI Number http://doi.org/xx.xxxx/xxxx

This is not correct http://dx.doi.org.ezproxy2.apus.edu/10.1037/pspi0000160
This is the link to the library database and should not be used. Use the DOI number that is provided on the article

There are NO citations in an annotated bibliography

Researcher last name (year) examined, evaluated, investigated, explored, studied, etc what topic for what purpose? (one sentence)
What was the gap in the research that the study addressed – meaning what was still unknown about this topic? AND why is it important to examine this gap (two sentences)
(Do not use the words the gap or why it is important…. Just state the information)
The participants included- list the number of individuals (and if noted both genders, age range in parentheses after number of individuals) (one sentence)
**Example – The participants included 100 individuals (66 male, 34 female, age range 18 – 44 years)
How was the data collected? (one -three sentences depending on methodology)
How was the data analyzed? (one -two sentences)
What were the findings? (two- three sentences)
What are the implications? (two – three sentences) Do not use the word Implication – just state how the findings are applied outside of the research setting to help others. Example: Results added new information to the field, extended previous findings, additional research needed, findings can be used to help others in what way – create interventions, psychoeducation programs, treatment protocols, inform policy makers, inform insurance providers, etc

In no more than 250 words use this Exact Format:

Researcher last name (year) examined, evaluated, investigated, explored, studied, etc what topic for what purpose? What was the gap in the research that the study addressed – meaning what was still unknown about this topic? AND why is it important to examine this gap. The participants included total # of individuals (# male, # female, age range if noted in study). Using (survey, experiment, case study, interviews, etc) methodology (include both quantitative or qualitative methodologies in your assignment) the researchers (describe/summarize how the study was conducted). How was the data collected? How was the data analyzed? What were the findings? (2-3 sentences) The results indicated (showed, provided support for, highlighted, did not support, contradicted etc., and add what the implications of the findings were (without using the words the implications) How can findings be applied outside of the research setting? (Results added new information to the field, extended previous findings, additional research needed, findings can be used to help others in what way – create interventions, treatment protocols, inform policy makers, etc).

How to cite the APA

First citation (American Psychological Association [APA], 2020)

The next time you cite it is just (APA, 2020)
**How to move Annotated Bibliography content into the Week 6 assignment
Introduction
First provide an Introduction paragraph, introducing the reader the overall topic that connects your five studies (one standard 5-7 sentence paragraph).
Review of the Literature
Then you will paste the week 4 summaries AS IS and break the summary content into TWO standard 5-7 sentence paragraphs. The first paragraph ends after the analysis content.
The second paragraph includes findings, implications and transition and connections to the next study.
**Remember that you are not simply adding the annotated bibliography content to your Week 6 assignment. You are not just telling the reader the focus of the next study. Provide a reader with an understanding of how the studies are similar or different in methodology (qualitative or quantitative, purpose, participants, data collection and analysis, etc as applicable to the findings, etc), compare and contrast the study content, inform a reader of how the studies are connected, how findings were extended, or findings were refuted.

Do not start a sentence with the researcher’s last name, add leading words such as:
To begin,
In the first study,
To start
In a related study,
in a similar study,
To illustrate this point
To further gather data on this topic,
In support of the previous findings,
In the following study,
Unlike the previously study,
As compared to the previous study,
In the next study,
In this study,
In the final study,
In the last study,
Finally,
Lastly,
In discussing the study findings in several sentences, restate simply for a reader using terms like:
In other words
As such
simply put
simply said
what this means is
meaning that
This shows that
That is
Overall
This suggested

Summary
Finally, wrap the five summaries up with a Summary Paragraph with a sentence regarding the overall focus of the summaries followed by one finding statement with the associated citation from each study at the end of the sentence in parenthesis, Combine findings and citations when possible if findings were related (one standard 5-7 sentence paragraph)
