| Introduction - 5 |
Dependent variable clearly stated. Evidence/statisics substantive and clearly delineates incidence and prevalence of dependent variable.Clear statement on purpose of the paper. (4.50-5.00) |
Dependent variable clearly stated. Limited evidence/statistics provided to document incidence and prevalence of dependent variable. Weak statement on purpose of the paper. (3.50-4.49) |
Dependent variable not clearly stated. No supporting statistics provided to show incidence and prevalence of dependent variable. No statement on purpose of the paper. (0-3.49) |
| Problem statement - 5 |
The problem statement is well documented in terms of evidence that the dependent variable is a problem. (4.50-5.00) |
The problem statement shows limited evidence that the dependent variable is a problem. (3.50-4.49) |
The problem statement does not show clear evidence that the dependent variable is a problem. (0-3.49) |
| Theoretical Framework - 10 |
Theoretical framework reflects the nature of the interactions between independent and dependent variables, temporal order, and the direction of social interactions. All variables are clearly conceptualized. (9.00-10.00) |
Theoretical framework is clear in terms of social interactions, temporal order, and the relationship between the independent and dependent variables. (7.00-8.99) |
Theoretical framework lacks clarity in terms of social interactions, temporal order, and dependent variable. The model is not logical and variables are not conceptualized. (0 - 6.99) |
| Policy Implications - 3 |
Policy implications alignn with independent variables and rationale given. (2.70-3.00) |
Policy implications align with independent variables. (1.40-2.69) |
Policy implications not aligned with theoretical framework. (0-1.39) |
| References - 2 |
APA was correct all in-text citations with a list of references documenting all sourced used. (1.80-2.00) |
APA not followed for over fifty percent of paper in terms of format and/or references. (1.40-1.79) |
APA significantly lacking in terms of format and in paper citations. References not APA (0 -1.39) |
