Instruction

Conduct a literature search for articles related to your chosen topic of interest using Boolean search strategies, keywords, and parameters in the database by using the following guidelines for your articles :

· Utilize professional counseling literature. The articles should not be outside your scope of clinician mental health practice, such as psychiatric research related to medication or medical interventions such as MRIs or brain scans that a counselor would not conduct.

· The articles should contain content that you can relate to counseling practice.

· The articles should be published within the last 10 years.

· The articles should be from peer-reviewed journals in the behavioral sciences.

Specifically, the following  critical elements must be addressed:

1. Population: “ Pick a specific population for the research topic .”

2. Mental health issue through which intervention will be examined: Select one from “Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) or Depression” for the research topic chosen.

3. Identify three articles that could potentially be used to provide you with data to answer your research question based on the specific research topic you have chosen. You will need to select articles that specifically include a variety of methodological approaches.

4. After identifying the three articles, review their content to determine their quality and applicability.

5. Finally, generate APA citations for the three articles.

6. Write a short description of your rationale for how each of these articles is a good source of data for investigating your topic.
