Journal Review:
1. Find a journal article (a primary source) that reports research on a psychological topic. The article must come from one of the following journals:
• Journal of Personality and Social Psychology
• Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin
• Journal of Experimental Social Psychology
• Psychological Science
• Journal of Applied Psychology
• American Journal of Psychology
2. Write a summary of the article in your own words (of no more than one typed, double-spaced pages) as if you were describing the article to a friend or family member. In your summary be sure to answer the following questions, not necessarily in this order:
• What was the research about?
• How did they conduct the research?
• What did you find?
How might the findings be relevant to your listener’s/reader’s life?
Notes:
•If the article you selected contains more than one study, you only have to summarize one of the studies.
•You must turn in a copy of the research article with your paper.
