In reviewing your study for a peer review, as per this week's assignments I found
some strengths as well as some errors that will need your attention as you edit
your document. Please see below for some constructive notes on your study:
Strengths:
• Your paper was well written with your sample size clearly stated
• Your paper provided a clear overview of your survey and its purpose
Weaknesses:
• Under analysis, you are referring to your study in future tense the study
is missing the results (see week 6 assignment, section 2.c) as well as
the required tables
• Limitations of your study were not addressed (see week 6 assignment,
section 2.b)
• On page two, you refer to five authors, listing them by last name. This
is acceptable when referring to three or less authors, however, when
there are more than three authors, the use of 'et al' is appropriate
(Purdue University, 2019)
• While reviewing your results and discussion section for this weeks’
assignment, I found there were a good amount of strengths and a few
errors. These errors should not be too hard to fix. Just making sure to
review the APA Manual for some extra guidance should allow you to easily
fix those errors.
•
• Strength:
• h h h h h h h h h - Your paper was well written, with proper headings, and proper
terms.
• h h h h h h h h h - Your paper provided a lot of good information about the
purpose of the study and how the demographics related to the variables as
well.
•
• Weaknesses:
• - There are a few errors here and there for punctuation that should be
looked over and reviewed.
• - Unfortunately, I did not see a discussion or the results section within your
paper either. This was also part of the week 6 assignment. Make sure to
always have all of the information asked.
• - There were also no graphs or tables that were presented in this section.
Make sure to have at least two tables or graphs with proper APA titles,
notes, and citations. You can find the proper formatting in last week’s video
from Dr. St. Peters
