Annotated Bibliography Comment by Stacey Bridges: Provide an annotated bibliography (750-1,000 words total) of the assigned journal articles for Modules 5 and 6.Provide awritten summary of the key concept(s) of the article. Why was the study done? What was the population studied? What did the researcher(s) conclude? What other information about this study do you believe is unique or important to recall? Are there specific statements made by the author that you wish to retain?
Axelrod, S. D. (2012). “Self-awareness”: At the interface of executive development and psychoanalytic therapy. Psychoanalytic Inquiry, 32(4), 340-357. http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/07351690.2011.609364
For the annotated bibliography, you will annotate each of the following readings for modules 5 and 6, this includes Axelrod (2012, Hall and Lindzey (1957), Scaturo (2015), and Weaver (2009).
Annotations are descriptive and critical assessments of literature that help researchers evaluate texts and determine relevancy in relation to a particular research project. Ultimately, this is a note-taking tool that fosters critical thinking, demonstrates understanding, and evaluates the source material for possible later use. Annotated bibliographies are helpful tools for organizing and preparing for a research paper or project. Instead of reading articles and forgetting what you have read, you can have a convenient document full of helpful information about the articles you have read. In addition to helping you remember what you have read, an annotated bibliography can help you see the bigger picture of the literature you are reading. It can help you visualize the overall status of the topic, as well as where your unique question might fit into the field of literature.
Entries should be in alphabetical order, include the full APA formatted reference, including doi, and an annotation (of at least 250 words). Your annotation should include indicative, informative, and evaluative information about the article. If you are unsure of what these three types of information are, please see: http://www.gcumedia.com/lms-resources/student-success-center/docs/Preparing-Annotated-Bibliographies.pdf Remember that each of your annotations should be at least 250 words in length and include both summative and evaluative information. Please see the assignment rubric for more information on how the assignment will be graded.

Note the purpose of the article, the participants/subject of the study, the conclusions drawn by the author(s), and the validity of the conclusions. Evaluate the article: is it a credible source? Describe the credibility of the author – are there any biases? How well did the author support his or her assertions? Did they provide an adequate literature review? Were there any limitations?
Kenobi, O.W. (1977). Mos Eisley spaceport: A wretched hive of scum and villainy. Journal of Intergalactic Spaceports, 7, 42-50. http://dx.doi.org/4815162342
Based on other literature in the field, and the ample support provided by Kenobi in this article, the conclusions drawn here seem valid. Kenobi is a prolific researcher in this field, with 85 publications in peer-reviewed journals, and five texts published with well-regarded academic publishers. This article is published in the leading journal of spaceport research, indicating credibility for the article and an intended audience of other spaceport experts.
Provide a Title for Your Paper Comment by Windows User: Construct an outline for a paper that will explain and synthesize the articles in Modules 5 through 7. The paper will require identification of themes common to the articles as well as a statement of the conclusions that can be drawn when the articles are taken together as a single entity.
Your outline should include information from the articles from Modules 5, 6, and 7. This includes:
· Module 5: Hall and Lindzey (1957), Scaturo (2015)
· Module 6: Axelrod (2012), Weaver (2009)
· Module 7: Overskeid (2007), Eagle (2007).
EACH THEME MUST INCLUDE SUPPORT FROM AT LEAST THREE OF THESE ARTICLES . Please delete all instructions and comments before submitting your work.
VERY IMPORTANT: BEFORE you select themes and construct your outline, PLEASE LOOK AHEAD AND READ THE DIRECTIONS FOR THE WEEK 7 SYNTHESIS PAPER (found on the Week 7 Assignment Page). The directions state that your paper should “focus specifically on the key aspects of Freudian thought which caused these other theorists to distance themselves from Freud's views and influence. Consider also the major differences among themselves which caused them to diverge from one another.” Please keep that in mind as you select themes, construct an outline, and write your paper. Make sure that is the direction you go.
· Introduction
A. Capture the reader’s interest (Provide one or two opening sentences here).
B. Provide context for the paper (Set up what your paper is about here)
1. Statement of common themes (Provide your statement here).
C. State your thesis (Provide your thesis statement here) Comment by Windows User: A Thesis Statement: should be as clear and specific as possible and have a definable, arguable claim. It does not simply announce a topic: it says something about the topic. Below I have included a basic template of a clear and concise thesis statement (you can insert your words into this basic format): “A synthesis of common themes derived from the research suggests that … (fill in with your thesis statement here)….” Your stated purpose/thesis statement should reflect the analysis you will be doing, which is to analyze and synthesize common themes. Here are some helpful sites for writing a strong and clear thesis statement: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/545/01/ Weak Thesis Statements: Recognizing and Fixing Them http://create.arizona.edu/content/weak-thesis-statements-recognizing-and-fixing-them Thesis handout: http://writingcenter.unc.edu/handouts/thesis-statements/
· Theme 1: Name of Theme Comment by Windows User: Each theme MUST have support from at least three of the articles. MAKE SURE THAT YOU CLEARLY DEFINE EACH THEME, AND PROVIDE SUFFICIENT CONTEXT. Please use a citation, so it is easy to identify from where you are pulling your support. You are not being asked to provide three article summaries, rather you are being asked to provide three themes common to the articles. This resource can help you to understand synthesis. https://www.bgsu.edu/content/dam/BGSU/learning-commons/documents/writing/synthesis/asked-to-synthesize.pdf
A. Present an important theme you observed in the three articles.
1. What is the theme?
2. Why is it important? Provide at least your topic sentence for the theme.
B. Use evidence from at least three articles to support your conclusion that this is an important theme.
1. What does each article say about the idea?
2. How are the different articles connected around this particular theme?
Here is an example of what I expect from you. Let’s pretend that all three articles describe the health benefits of yoga.
· Theme 2: Health Benefits
A. Yoga is a discipline for the body and mind, with mental and physical health benefits.
1. Yogisatre (2016) examines the physical health benefits of yoga
1. Increased flexibility, increased core strength, better posture
2. Vikram and Hatha (2013) explores the mental health benefits of yoga
1. Practitioners are more relaxed, have better control of their breathing
3. Kellish et al. (2014) discusses both physical and mental health benefits
1. The meditative elements of yoga are linked with decreased stress, depression, and anxiety; correlation with lower blood pressure, reduced chronic pain, and better sleep
· Theme 3: Name of Theme
A. Present an important theme you observed in the three articles.
1. What is the theme?
2. Why is it important? Provide at least your topic sentence for the theme.
B. Use evidence from each of the three articles to support your conclusion that this is an important theme.
1. What does each article say about the idea?
2. How are the different articles connected around this particular theme?
· Conclusion Comment by Windows User: Be sure that your conclusion is in alignment with your thesis (which should be supported by each of your themes), and that you emphasize a synthesized conclusion. https://www.umuc.edu/writingcenter/writingresources/conclude.cfm Check out the following site for tips on writing a conclusion: http://writingcenter.unc.edu/handouts/conclusions/
A. Provide a statement of conclusion. Here you will briefly summarize the themes, hitting the major points of the paper. The conclusion should align with the thesis statement and show that it has been accomplished.
B. Provide a synthesized conclusion, that is, a statement of the conclusions that can be drawn when the articles are taken together as a single entity. What is the overall synthesized message? Be clear, and do not simply summarize your discussion of the themes, or restate the themes; you need to synthesize them . What is the new idea that you see arising when you consider the 3 articles together as one? By tying all articles’ material together, support the assertion from the thesis.
