Article Summaries – Parenting Styles

Choose three (3) empirical research articles that relate to a topic in human development (parenting styles). The articles should be published in a psychology related journal. Again, the articles should contain most, if not all, of the aforementioned subheadings. A good tip is to enter, “qualitative study” in your search (e.g. the effects of schizophrenia AND qualitative study). Do your best NOT to choose paper’s labeled as meta-analysis, literature review, or theoretical paper. Instead, make sure the articles contain the sections listed above (Abstract, Introduction, Method, Results, Discussion, and References section.)

For each article you have selected, answer ALL of the following questions found in the Article Summaries Template. Make sure that your answers are complete, well written, and in your own words. It is recommended that you read the article and then complete the assignment from your recollection. Be sure to limit the use of direct quotes. You may review the document Summarizing a Research Article for additional tips.
