There should be three sections, one for each item number below, as well the introduction (heading is the title of the essay) and conclusion paragraphs. Separate each section in your paper with a clear heading that allows your professor to know which item you are addressing in that section of your paper. Support your ideas with at least three (3) citations in your essay. Make sure to reference the citations using the APA writing style for the essay. The cover page and reference page do not count towards the minimum word amount. Review the rubric criteria for this assignment.

Assignment Expectations:

Length: 500 words per essay prompt/section (1500 total for this assignment)

References: Use the appropriate APA style in-text citations and references for all resources utilized to answer the questions. Include at least three (3) scholarly sources to support your claims.

Rubric: This assignment uses a rubric for scoring. Please review it as part of your assignment preparation and again prior to submission to ensure you have addressed its criteria at the highest level.

Format: Save your assignment as a Microsoft Word document (.doc or .docx) or a PDF document (.pdf)

File name: Name your saved file according to your first initial, last name, and the module number (for example, “RHall Module1.docx”)

Requirements: 2 pages (that means two full pages of writing excluding the survey), but no longer than 4 pages, There are a few components to this assignment, so please make sure each is under its own distinct subheading within the body of your paper (i.e. Step 1, Step 2, etc.). APA Format

Step 1: Identify a topic in the healthcare field that interests you (this can be broad at this point, like “Medicare,” “mental disorders,” “elderly care,” etc.)

—-Topic: The lack of knowledge regarding Alzheimer’s Disease ATTACHED ARE 2 PDF Articles to use for this assignment—–

Step 2: Briefly summarize (in your own words) what these articles tell you about your topic in a few paragraphs (I don’t need every detail of the papers. Just convey what is relevant). This section should be the bulk of the writing in your paper. Make sure all articles are cited in APA format on the References page at the end of your paper. You do not need to upload the articles.

Step 3: Based on what you learned from the articles above and what you still want to know about your topic, brainstorm 3-4 potential specific research questions (these are not the same as survey questions) about your topic- include each of your brainstorms in the paper (i.e. if you pick elderly care, one potential question could be, “Does regular family visitation decrease risk of depression in elderly individuals aged 70-90 who are living in long-term care facilities?” but not something too vague or subjective, like “Is elderly care in Florida good or bad?”). Remember, study questions should be specific, measurable, and realistic.

Step 4: Pick one of your brainstormed questions that would be best suited for a survey/questionnaire methodology. If your question requires you to collect biomedical data or use secondary data, or in any other way does not depend on participant attitudes/behaviors, it is not suited for a survey- your book has a lot of good information about this. For example, a question like “Does daily intake of a fish oil supplement increase HDL levels in post-menopausal women?” would not be appropriate. To answer this type of question, you would need to measure HDL levels, which obviously cannot be done as a survey. 

Step 5: Develop a 5-10 question survey that could be a part of a study that addresses the research question and identify your target population for the survey: College Students/Students between 19-30 yrs old). To make this easier, we are going to standardize the question responses to fit a Likert scale. Click here to see examples of Likert scale type responses.  (Links to an external site.)Identify ONE type of scale from the link that you will use in your survey (i.e. each question would have the same potential answers- clearly identify which of the scales on the linked page you would use for your survey (Links to an external site.)– you are picking only one that will work for all of your questions, so make sure you write your questions in such a way that each could be answered be one single scale). You only need to write out the scale ONCE so I know what you picked- not once for each questions. Remember, the survey does not count towards the page limit. 

There must be two pages of writing in addition to however many pages you need for the survey.
