For this assessment, submit the current draft of your literature review for instructor feedback and grading. Using your literature search question (LSQ), the annotated bibliography, and the abstracted outline to support your review, identify themes that emerge from your analysis of what we know so far about your topic. Use these themes to describe how your research builds on prior knowledge.
For instance, if your LSQ is What does the literature in psychology tell us about the utility of treating mild depression in adults with a combination of synchronous and asynchronous labyrinth walking and cognitive behavioral therapy? you might discuss literature that covers the themes of exercise and depression, cognitive behavioral therapy and depression, walking meditation and depression, mindfulness and depression, and so on. Do not organize the paper by referencing each article sequentially; your task is to synthesize concepts pertinent to the LSQ from the articles selected for this review.
Identify literature that:
Describes the chosen area of research and provides rationale for the choice.
​Describes the significance of the chosen topic:
Explain and justify the implications of the new knowledge for stakeholders, including community members and those who serve the population.
Summarize sources applicable to the history of the chosen topic:
Discuss historical context and dominant themes in the evolution of the topic; connect common themes and present counteropinions.
Consider theory in light of seminal works by theorists such as Urie Bronfenbrenner, Sigmund Freud, B.F. Skinner, Carol Gilligan, Jean Piaget, Erving Goffman, and Clark Moustakas.
Summarize sources applicable to the theoretical background of the chosen topic:
Provide information about theoretical underpinnings such as empirical/behavioral or constructivist and humanistic orientations of the literature reviewed.
Consider theory in light of seminal works by theorists such as Urie Bronfenbrenner, Sigmund Freud, B.F. Skinner, Carol Gilligan, Jean Piaget, Erving Goffman, Clark Moustakas, Martha Bernal, and George I. Sanchez.
Summarize sources applicable to best practices for engaging in research:
Describe data-collection strategies, research procedures, and approaches for conducting and reporting research.
Summarize sources that add significance and relevance to the knowledge base of psychology:
Indicate how the chosen sources help investigators identify topics that are well understood and other topics that represent gaps in the knowledge base and the need for further study.
Create a scenario that illustrates the need for new research.
Articulate guidelines of the profession applicable to ethical conduct in research practice:
Demonstrate ethical conduct associated with the protection of research subject vulnerabilities such as the need for data privacy.
Identify practices and research guidelines that address respect for individual differences and diversity:
Address individual variation and diversity within and across groups. For example, when writing about marriage and family therapy, acknowledge research choices that exclude or include subgroups such as gay and lesbian families or families of particular racial, ethnic, or cultural compositions.
Adhere to APA style and formatting guidelines, including concise and well-organized writing:
Organize paper to enhance the message and supporting points; writing should reflect the quality and expertise expected for academic work.
Organize and summarize sources thematically.
Your task is to present current considerations important to investigators and to indicate ramifications for stakeholders who rely on the current knowledge base. Use illustrative examples to explain and highlight key concepts. Good reviewers share evidence-based assessments of the current state of knowledge with their audiences.
This assessment is one component of the research concept paper. You are expected to refine this literature review before submitting the final project. Use the research concept paper template to complete the literature review. There are additional details in the template to help guide the completion of this assessment.
Additional Requirements
Formatting: Use the Research Concept Paper Template [DOCX] to complete your assessment. It has been created to reflect the proper structure. To avoid missing content and losing points, please do not modify the template.
Font: New Times Roman, 12 points, double-spaced, or any other font that complies with current APA guidelines.

Address the following in two well-crafted pages. Be sure to ground your arguments in specifics from the provided sources. Use in-text, parenthetical citations (author’s last name, pg. #). If the source is unpaginated (as in the case of the Pruitt-Igoe Myth), just use the author’s (or director’s) last name in parentheses.

I also need a discussion question thats part of this assigment.

Explain the process of creating your own piece and its meaning to you.

PROMPT A:
Choose a visual, audio or verbal art piece that speaks to you and explain why it resonates with you. Share your selection with the class by posting a link, attaching an image or otherwise assuring that the class can see or hear your selection.
PROMPT B:
Create an art piece yourself in either a visual, audio or verbal medium to present to the class. It may help to have some of the readings for this week in the back of your mind (i.e., Mark Doty, Michael Chabon, Susan Sontag) as you create your art piece. The only two requirements are that every part of the piece be important to you, and that it be dynamic. In other words, the piece should express your enthusiasm for the subject and medium you have chosen. Explain the process of creating your own piece and its meaning to you.

Is obesity the result of behavior, environment, or genetics?

Step ONE:
Draft Your Research Essay

Your research essay requires
the following:

●
Write a 2,000 to 2,500-word research essay that: (1) explains the
history and current debate of a controversial
topic,
(2) asserts an opinion about the
debate, and (3) ultimately persuades readers to support your position.
○
”Debatable” means a topic about which intelligent, well-meaning
people may disagree. Keep in mind that your audience will be skeptical, so plan
your arguments accordingly.
○
The key to a solid argument is to ensure that your
argument is well-balanced, thorough, and supported by information gleaned from
credible written sources such as scholarly journals, trade publications, and books.

● Your research essay must
include the following elements:
○
Clear title and introduction, which present the history of the problem
in an engaging manner
○
Accurate description of the topic as it is currently
presented in the literature and clear descriptions of the various viewpoints
○
Evaluation and analysis of the debate
○ At least eight reliable and
authoritative secondary sources

●
To help you get started, try following these steps:
○ Begin by drafting an outline
of your research essay.

○
Use your outline to write a rough draft of your paper that incorporates
your sources.
■ Take advantage of credible
websites, radio, or even television programs, but not to the exclusion of
printed sources. If possible, interview a leader in the field- the idea is to
have a balance of source types. Remember to use your critical thinking skills
to determine the validity and reliability of each source before you decide to
include it.
■ Your sources should be
current (usually not more than ten years old), unless you are providing
historical background or the source is a seminal work in the field. All quotations, summaries, and paraphrases
must be correctly cited and documented using APA citation guidelines.
