Annotated Bibliography

An annotated bibliography is a list of citations for papers relevant to a particular topic accompanied by a bulleted summary (annotation) of each paper. For more information about annotated bibliographies: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/614/01/

Assignment: Find 3 sources of primary literature that specifically identifies your topic and create an annotated bibliography on those articles. This is an individual assignment. You should begin your search on Pubmed.gov. This is a repository of peer-reviewed primary source articles. You may also use Google Scholar. You may not use reviews or secondary sources. There are examples of these three article types on Blackboard.

Format:

1. APA-style Citation of the article 2. Describe the research question or problem addressed in this paper

3. Describe the methods

a. What subjects were used

b. What experiments were performed

4. List a minimum of 3 main findings, conclusions, or main points

a. Include the figure/table from results, if necessary

5. State the relevance of these conclusions to your study

DO’s:

 Be sure to identify relevant literature. This will assist you in determining your specific research question and formulating the introduction/background information.

 Write more, never less. I have to read and grade this assignment not you; so do not be concerned about the length.

 PARAPHRASE the material. Read the article. Understand the article. Restate the information.

 Include all relevant information listed in the format above.

 You can find more than 3 articles. You may need them later.

DON’Ts:

 DO NOT COPY INFORMATION DIRECTLY FROM ANY PART OF THE ARTICLE. THIS IS CALLED PLAGIARISM!

 Do not purchase articles. Try to access articles that require payment or subscription using the BSU library services
