Here is the 2 out of 4:

For this assessment, you will use either the qualitative or quantitative research article you used in Part 1 of 4. Complete the following to prepare:

1. Reread the articles, paying close attention to the theory or theories the researchers discuss or mention in the introduction to the article.
2. Select the article that best lends itself to this assessment.
   • Note that qualitative research studies sometimes may not provide a theoretical framework. If this is the case for your qualitative article, do not choose it for this assessment.
   • If neither of the articles you chose in the previous paper discusses a theoretical framework for the research, you may select a different article for this assessment that discusses a theoretical framework used for the research. Use the same criteria for choosing the article that are listed in the previous paper.
3. Find and read at least one additional article that discusses the theory or theories in your chosen research article to deepen your understanding of how the theories provide the framework for the research study.
   • You might find a reference for the theoretical article by noting the citations used in the research article and looking up the source information in the References section of the article. Otherwise, you can begin your search by using the name of the theory as a search term in your database search. 

Directions

Complete the following in 6–8 pages:

1. Begin your paper with an Introduction that explains the purpose of the paper and its contents.
2. Discuss the general importance of theory in research, how theory guides research, and then how research contributes to theory.
3. Identify and describe the theory used to provide the framework for your chosen research article.
   • Use the theoretical article(s) you found about the theory to help support your description, making sure to properly cite all information.
4. Explain how the researchers used the theory or theories to provide the framework for the research.
   • As you answer this, some things to consider are: how the theory guided the literature review, the identification of the research problem, the selection of variables, the selection of the research population, and the research questions.
5. Continuing with the research article, explain how answering its research questions will contribute to the identified theory or theories.
   • For example, how might answering the research questions test the theory, extend it to different contexts, generate a new theory, or add to the current tenets of the theory?
6. Evaluate how well you think the theory or theories provide a framework for the research study.
   • Include both strengths and limitations when evaluating the contribution the research made to the theory or theories.
7. End your paper with a summary and conclusion.

Additional Requirements

• As much as possible, the assessment should be written in your own words, paraphrased and properly cited in current APA style.
  • If you need to quote, do so sparingly, and make sure you have cited quotes in current APA style.
  • Your assignments need to demonstrate your understanding of the material, not how well you can quote someone else's work.
• Write in a professional tone without writing errors.
• Make sure your assessment is 6–8 double-spaced pages, not including the title page or references, with 1-inch margins. An abstract is not required.
• Include an APA style references section.
• Use APA style headings to organize your paper.

Must include:

Explain how theory guides research in the study of psychology.

Describe the theory or theories that provide the framework of the research.Evaluate the contribution the research made to the theory or theories.
