Article/Data Analysis Exercise Assignment Instructions
This purpose of this project is twofold:
1. To help you become more familiar with interpreting academic journal articles in the library database.
2. To become more familiar with reviewing empirical (research-based) literature and the findings presented.
For this assignment, choose a peer-reviewed journal article, from your references, that assesses a crime program or method.
Read the article and write a 5-page review that includes the following:
1. A brief description of what the article addresses.
2. A summary of what the article is trying to accomplish. In other words, what hypothesis is the article testing?
3. The major findings of the article.
4. Interpret their data. Do you agree or disagree?
5. Do you feel you could you replicate the study based on their explanations?
Lastly, what if someone insisted that they were 100 percent certain about their survey results? Could you challenge that statement? How?
The assignment must follow current APA format. You may now use the standard template for assignments from this point on in the course (linked under the Resources header on the assignment page).
Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
