PSYC 6393R Walden Depression on Elderly due to COVID 19 Literature Review Matrix
Assignment: Critical Review and Organization of Peer-Reviewed Resources
Organization of your search for scholarly resources is of key importance. A matrix, such as the one created for this course, can aid in this process. A matrix is not meant to hold all the details about the articles that you found, but it should contain the information that you need in order to decide which articles you will use for your weekly assignments.
For this Assignment, you will examine information from your resources in order to organize the information within the matrix.
To Prepare
- From the Learning Resources, review the “Literature Review Matrix” and use this matrix to help you collect and organize your research.
- Search the Walden Library for peer-reviewed articles for your literature review. Note: You should include 12–15 peer-reviewed journal articles.
Assignment (2–3 pages)
- Place the 12–15 peer-reviewed sources that you have researched into the Literature Review Matrix.
- Remember that 80% or about 9–12 sources must be current peer-reviewed journal articles. An article is considered current if it was published within the past 5 years.
- You will use this matrix to help prepare the Weeks 5–7 Literature Review.
