Insert reference in APA formatting, 6th ed. 4th printing
Research Topic
The topic is a broad subject. The topic is not the problem to be solved; that comes
later. Example: Balanced Scorecard
Problem or Opportunity
The problem is established with factual data and is found in the introductory
portion of the research article or report.
Purpose for the Research
The purpose of the study defines what the researcher wants to find out and is found
in the introductory section of the research article. Sometimes the purpose contains a
research question/s.
Research Methods
A researcher makes a decision about the broad nature of a research approach:
typically quantitative/confirmatory or qualitative/exploratory. Research design
strategies are driven by the chosen research approach and the research purpose.
Research design strategies include: types of data collected, how the data is collected,
and what preparation of data is used, analytical techniques, and presentation of
information.
Audience
The groups, associates, profession, and/or individuals that the researcher suggests
might benefit from the findings of this study
Research Evaluation
Assess the study’s Research Methods and Analytic Techniques. Are the research
methods and analytic techniques applicable to solving practical management
questions? Why or why not? You must substantiate your position with credible
resources and examples.
Discuss how your organization might or might not use the findings from these
studies. Substantiate your opinion with concrete examples.
Locate peer reviewed research articles published within the last five (5) years. One article should deal
