In need of a tutor for writing an annotated bibliography on a journal article for a statistics course:

Question

Within the academic journal article I must find and define:

-Highlighting the independent, dependent, operational definition of both, threats to internal validity, external validity and construct validity.

-naming the type of sample used.

-naming the type of study it is

-naming the way a sample is acquired for the study

This is for a first semester in a clinical psychology doctoral program (Psy.D). I will find a research article based on children with Autism spectrum disorder and their relationship with anxiety, stress or PTSD.

Answer 1

Thank you for the question! The assignment as defined requires that you evaluate the validity of the study, how it was conducted, sampled and interpreted. Various factors influence study integrity. Some of the most common sampling errors are sample frame errors, selection errors, population specification errors, and non-response errors. You’ll want to address that in your paper and how such errors can impact the statistical outcome. Pease feel free to ask any questions regarding the topic of linking stress to autism spectrum disorder or how to evaluate internal and external threats to validity.

Answer 2

Hi Kanika,

Creating an annotated bibliography means that you identify relevant sources and then analyze or summarize the article. In your case, it sounds like an analysis is required.

Here is a helpful resource for creating an annotated bibliography:
