Description
The paper should be no less than four double-spaced pages and no more than five pages double-spaced (not including references). Please treat this paper as a mini-research brief. The papers should be in three sections, as detailed below. Please use APA headings. You do not need an abstract, but please include an APA-formatted title page and reference list.
Introduction: Introduce what the topic is and let your reader know what he/she can expect in this paper. This section should set the context through which your reader should interpret the information you present in your study summaries.
Summarize: In section one you should summarize three of the readings (There are more than three articles will be attached, you may choose, all of them are talks about the topic of credibility). Dedicate one paragraph to each study. In your own words and without using quotations, please explain the studies. Begin the paragraph by explaining how the researchers conducted the study and then tell me what the results were. Do not include information on the hypotheses or literature review. Tell me what the researchers did and what they found. Use transitions between studies to show how they relate to each other.
Analyze: In the second section tell me what YOU think about the readings. You should try to pull together a main theme for the readings as a whole. Do NOT re-summarize the studies. You only have to pick one or two things to write about. This section should be no more than one or two paragraphs. Link these observations back to the topic what is the significance of these observations in relation to the topic? What implications do your main ideas have for communication practitioners? The main purpose of this section is to see if you can take the research findings and translate them into implications and practical recommendations for communication practitioners.
