Literature Review Spreadsheet (20%):
For this assignment, you need to download the Excel Spreadsheet.
The first part of the table is information you need for your APA citation.
The second part will help with your research design.
You need 4 articles/entries per person, one qualitative article, and three quantitative articles (so a total of 16 for groups with 4 people and 20 for groups with 5).
The quantitative articles should include measures for your variables that you can use for your own survey. Every article will have a description of their measures, with some also including a full list of the measures used. You can think of it like an academic scavenger hunt.
