Course Project Part II

The interviews that you completed in Week 3 (that is attached)provide background information for your course project to be submitted in this assignment. To support your work, you will also include a literature review. You will need at least three scholarly journal articles. You can use the articles that you referenced in previous weeks’ readings and assignments, or you can search for articles from Online Library for your literature review. A literature review can be just a simple summary of the sources, but it usually has an organizational pattern and combines both a summary and a synthesis PSY4320 W5 Course Project Paper .

In your literature review:

  • Write a short summary (one to two paragraphs) for each article.
  • Write a brief analysis (one to two paragraphs) for each article and relate each analysis to your course and text readings.
  • Make a connection, if possible, to the interview process and your own evaluation of each interviewee.

When researching information for your literature review, you also will need to incorporate one or more of the following factors to relate with the interviewees’ evaluations:

  • Similarities and differences between development according to gender, ethnicity, and socially derived groups
  • Age-appropriate and socially constructed milestones
  • Impact of interpersonal factors (e.g., social roles and relationships) during early and middle adulthood
  • The nature of stress, coping, and resistance in the context of gender
  • The importance of gender identity in the context of work
