Find an article that discusses the results of a study and analyze it with the vocabulary of this unit. After identifying the article, do the following:
- Describe the study design that was used. Was it an observational study, experiment, double-blind, etcetera? If the article doesn’t give enough info for you to describe this, you’ll need to find a new article. It’s okay if you don’t know ALL the details, but you should be able to say at least something here.
- Briefly summarize the study’s findings or conclusions.
- Describe at least one way this study design could be improved or an explanation of why it doesn’t need to be improved.
- Include a list of things that are missing from the article that would help you determine the validity of the study. For example, maybe it doesn’t state the sample size.
- Cite the source of the article you read. Include the web address to the specific article if the article is online. Include the article title, source, and date if the article is not online.
