Assignment 1: Critique of a Research Article, Due 5/17

Prior to the end of week two, locate, read, and submit to your instructor at least one article from a professional journal (not a magazine, newspaper, or website) that reports on findings from a study about families with K-12 aged (or a subgroup of that age range) students with disabilities.

(Failure to meet this requirement will result in an automatic grade of zero for the assignment).

The article may report on an experiment, such as an assessment of parenting skills, provision of a parent training program, and reassessment of the parents’ skills, or it may report on parents’ (or other family members’) perceptions of the effectiveness of a program or service, or of the impact the student with a disability has had on the family. The article must be about families of school-age children withdisabilities (note title of course).

Part I:

1. Create the APA citation of the article.

2. Write a brief summary of the article which includes the following details: – Nature of the problem or research question (What did they want to learn more about and why?), – Description of the children and their families (Ages, types of disabilities, gender, ethnicity, etc.) – Description of the study

(What information did they collect about the student and/or their families before they started the experiment, and then what did they do with the student and/or their families to affect change?) (One to two paragraphs) – Results and conclusions (Did the student’s behavior and/or performance or the parents’ skills or perceptions change, and in the direction anticipated by the authors? What limitations, if any, did the authors identify? What do the authors suggest for future research?)

Part III: Evaluation of the Article

The evaluation of the article itself should answer questions such as: Was there sufficient information about the subjects, the research, the experiment, etc.? Was it well written or were there parts that wereconfusing? Did the authors’ conclusions and suggestions for future research make sense?

Part IV: Conclusion
