    After reviewing my peers papers, It is clear that I should go back and make sure that there are no opinions or argumentative parts to my paper. In addition, I should make sure everything is throughly explained while being concise. In this, the research question and gap in knowledge should be clearly stated. Overall, I should re-read my own paper, to make sure all aspects of the assignment are included and clearly stated.

    I think your rough draft is overall good paper. You are clearly listed problem, findings and implications of your research. The flow is well, and the charts are helping reader to understand the results.
    The language is clear and concise. However, I have some suggestions for your format. For the in-text citation, the correct format is (author name, year, page number). Like this one, (Freedman and Fraser, 201, 1966), you should change the order of year and page number.
    Then, seems like you used quotation mark for all resources, so I think you can try to use your own words to summarize the opinions from other researchers, not just quote.
    The organization for this paper is correct. They are connected with each other, but you can give some suggestions about your research at the end of the discussion.
    At last, center align "Discussion" .....
    Well-done for this paper!

    1. I thought it flowed very well through the entire paper. Listed everything that was needed and proved it with solid evidence and findings.
    2. Clear and concise, with not pattern errors that I could see, and fulfills the length requirement. I’m pretty sure your dates and page number/paragraph should be flipped around in the in text citations for APA format.
    3.I thought everything was pretty solid throughout, except a few thing in the Data analysis section. I would center the Data analysis title like you did with the methods section, intro, and abstract because it kind of got confusing with the separation of sections. Do the same for discussion section. Also, I would add more of a paragraph to the data analysis section.
    4.The finding of the experiment look good, but is there any data that could have been put into the paper, after the references page?
    5. I would focus on fixing the section heading first to make it more clear which sections are which. Then, I would go back and fix the in text citations to make it APA format. Lastly, I would make the data analysis first paragraph more into a intro to the results section and put your research or data in after the references page if possible.

Synthesis Chart

This is a screenshot of the chart i made using google docs. I don't plan on conducting a survey, but here are some questions I would ask 1.) How old are you? 2.) What is your identified gender? 3.) On a scale of 1-5, how much do you think your actions are influenced by others? 4.) Have you ever personally experienced someone trying to use these techniques on you? 5.) Have you ever heard of these compliance strategies?

Sources for Writing Assignment One

1.)  https://ir.uiowa.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1237&context=honors_theses This is a paper is titled,  Examining Risk Factors for Anxiety and Negative College Adjustment For First Year College Students. It is an academic source because it explains new findings from an experiment conducted by a University of Iowa graduate student. I plan on using this source to explain the structure used by psychologists debriefing an experiment and its findings. Such papers are consistently organized the same starting with the abstract, the going into its method, procedure, and then the results of the study. 2.) https://www-sciencedirect-com.proxy.lib.uiowa.edu/science/article/pii/S0191886917300430 This paper is titled,  Unhealthy perfectionism, negative beliefs about emotions, emotional suppression, and depression in students: A mediational analysis. It is also an academic source because it encloses its new experimental findings to the psychological field. I plan on a...

Explanation of Writing Assignment #1

This assignment is comparable to a basic research paper done in normal English courses but is more personal due to the author's connection to the subject matter. The purpose of the first assignment is to learn more about the style of writing required for the author's intended profession. The essay becomes personal to the author through the questions asked in the interview conducted with someone in the specific field being researched.  We are required to write a five-page double-spaced paper explaining the different writing styles and writing skills necessary for the specific profession. The paper must include six written sources and at least three should be academic sources and three non-academic sources are also required. This paper is a good way for students to study and understand the writing responsibilities they will have and the writing skills they will need going into their future careers. Questions: What is the difference between academic and non-academic sources?...
