SEARCHING FOR EVIDENCE

Conduct a library search for three peer-reviewed quantitative research articles that provide preliminary evidence of a social problem that has current relevance to social psychology (e.g., the effects of multitasking on task performance, internet addiction). At a minimum for each article, you must:

Provide a full APA 7 format reference
In your own words, clearly state the purpose of the study
Describe the specific research design used in the study
Identify the independent variable(s) (IVs) and dependent variable(s) (DVs)
Identify the authors’ hypotheses
Report the results of the study
Indicate whether you believe the results support the authors’ hypotheses
Your paper should not simply be an answer to each of the points just listed. Rather, you should integrate your answers into a cohesive, short paper describing each of the three studies and their findings.RESOURCESBe sure to review the Learning Resources before completing this activity.
