What is the authors hypothesis? What are their findings?
Structure of A Research Paper The basic structure of any research paper is the following: Title Abstract Introduction Literature Review Method Results Analysis Conclusion References Topic What is the relationship between social class (IV) and perceived health (DV)? H1: There is no relationship between social class and health. H2: There is a relationship between social class and health. Three scholar articles to use for the literature review: https://www.annualreviews.org/doi/full/10.1146/annurev.publhealth.18.1.341 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1059493/ https://www.nursingtimes.net/Journals/2015/10/09/d/b/a/141015_Social-class-and-its-influence-on-health.pdf Title The title should be specific and indicate the problem the research project addresses using keywords that will be helpful in literature reviews in the future. Abstract The abstract is used by readers to quickly review the overall content of the paper. The abstract is a short (about 100-500 word) summary of the entire paper. It should provide a complete synopsis of the research paper and should introduce the topic and the specific research question, provide a statement regarding methodology and should provide a general statement about the results and the findings. Because it is really a summary of the entire research paper, it is often written last. Introduction The introduction begins by introducing the broad overall topic and providing basic background information. It then narrows down to the specific research question relating to this topic. It provides the purpose and focus for the rest of the paper and sets up the justification for the research. Literature Review In this section, the main question that needs to be answered is what has been written before on your topic by scholars in the field? In particular, you are interested in what has been written concerning any relationship between your dependent variable and your independent variables. What is the authors hypothesis? What are their findings? What are the strengths (i.e. possible contributions to your study) and weaknesses (what your study can contribute to the problem in question). You do NOT detail the papers methodology, but report generally those things that relate to your project. FOR THIS ASSIGNMENT: You only need a total of 3 articles. Hypotheses For this paper, you will have two hypotheses you will be testing. For most of you, these will be the same as in your literature review. Basically, you will have two independent variables and one dependent variable and look at the differences, if any, between these two. Methods This section describes what you did, how you did it, and gives strategies and sample calculations. The goal here is to give the reader sufficient information to be able to repeat your work if desired. This section has three parts and, depending on what youre doing, will be about 1-2 pages. Describe the data set https://www.thearda.com/archive/files/Codebooks/GSS2016_CB.asp 226) (CLASS) & 190) (HEALTH) Who collected the data (GSS); how many total cases are used in your analysis; Describe the variables For this part, you run a frequency distribution for each variable (and include the printout) to show how the values of the variable are distributed. This will be especially important if you recode any variables. For all variables (dependent and independent), describe how was the question asked in the survey and what were the response categories. It is important to discuss if you had to recode any variables. If you did, describe the categories you created that will be used in your analysis; give a frequency distribution of each variable before and after recoding. Describe what type of analysis will be done In this class, most you will be using crosstabs to test your hypotheses. You will have percentages, appropriate measures of association, and inferential hypothesis test statistics. Results This section is where you give the data that tests your hypothesesthat is, all crosstabs (or regression, etc. You should provide some guidance to the reader that draws attention to the most important finding. FOR THIS ASSIGNMENT: You will need, at minimum, one crosstab analysis for each hypotheses (including percentages, measures of association, and inferential statistics). Analysis The analysis section starts off with you restating your hypotheses, then you begin your examination of whether those hypotheses were supported by the data or not. Be sure to cite specific statistics when claiming support, or lack thereof, for the hypotheses. This section will be about 1-2 pages. More specifically, for each crosstab: Tell the reader if the first hypothesis was supported. Then show the reader how you know it was supported by comparing the percentages in the crosstabaddressing existence, strength and direction of association where appropriate. Then show the reader how you know it was supported by looking at the appropriate measure(s) of association for the crosstabaddressing existence, strength and direction of association where appropriate. Then tell the reader if the results are statistically significant (citing the measure of significance). Conclusion This section should be a discussion of the results and the implications on the field, as well as other fields. The hypothesis should be answered and validated by the interpretation of the results. This section should end up being about 1-2 pages. Traditionally, the conclusion section begins one more time with a statement of your hypotheses. This is followed by a brief summary of your findings (paragraph or so). Were your hypotheses supported or not? The goal here is that a reader could quickly glance at the first sentence or two of this section and know what happened. However, the conclusion is more than just a summary. You also can discuss how the research contributes to the field, speculate on how to do things different next time. For instance, it could be the case that your hypotheses weren’t supported, but you really believe that the relationship exists. You would then explain why you fail to find the relationship, and what should be done different in the future to get at the relationship you believe exists. It’s your opportunity to brainstorm on how future research should be done. NOTE: Do NOT just say you need more cases. More cases per se is not what makes for a good research project. Should different, more, questions have been asked? Different population surveyed? We owe future researchers who are reading your article to glean some knowledge about how to approach your concept at least some guideposts as to what we think worked, what didn’t work, why, and what we would do if we were going to continue to do research on your topic. References An alphabetical listing of all the references you used in the work and in writing the paper. This would obviously include the articles from the literature review, but also any other material you referenced or used to help you with the project and/or paper.
