S&P Unit VIII Article Review

The last unit focused on the psychology of work.  This unit's learning is all about first stress and it's effects and then the psychology of happiness (positive psychology).  The assignment is an article review.  There are specific requirements for what information to address in your review as well, so please be sure to follow the syllabus guidelines on what to include in your write up.  I have also added some pointers below. Otherwise, if you have questions, please feel free to contact me as always! 

You have all done an excellent job in this course and should be very proud!  Great job and congratulations!!  Well done!!

My best to you,

Dr. Dean

Additional Professor Instructions for this Unit

Since the assignment for this unit calls for a formal paper, it must be written using all the formatting styles defined in the CSU APA Guide for formal papers.  APA guidelines call for an abstract at the start of the paper, section headers to give the reader an idea of what is following, a running head, specific fonts and paragraph and line spacing, and the references on a separate page. The source material must be acknowledged with references and citations for all direct quotes and paraphrased material.  All citations will include a page number or paragraph number if the source has only one page.

 

Direct quotes must be minimized, since they do not give a good indication of your understanding of the material.  Also, introductory phrases hinder the readability of the paper, so they should be minimized also.  Per the requirements in the Course Syllabus, material from the textbook and any outside source must be discussed, cited and referenced.

 

There are very specific topics to be discussed for this review, so be sure to read the course syllabus and include all of them in the paper.  These will be used when grading for content.
