Write an article review on ‘Effects of Political Advertising in the 2008 Presidential Campaign (Kaid et.al, 2011).
A good summary helps readers who do not read the article understand the study presented in the article including the theoretical background, the research question(s) or the purpose of the study, definitions of the key concepts, key elements of the methods such as measures of the key variables, main research findings, and the discussion. That’s why the syllabus requires that “the article critique paper be 5-7 pages long (double-spaced, 12-point font, and 1-inch margins), including 3-5 pages of a summary of the article and 2 pages of your critique.”
For the critique, other than criticizing the study (some aspects of an empirical study such as research design, variable measurement, sampling, and data analysis might be beyond our understanding without systematic training in research methods in graduate school), I would suggest that the critique discuss more the implications and applications of the main findings and the challenges the study might be facing in certain circumstances like new environment, variables that should have been included, etc. The discussions in the critique must be substantial instead of simply point something out.
To my writer who is reading this, I really apprecaite your help! I only need you to write 3 pages of the summary of the article, I might add on some more after I recieve the paper if I have time, but the crtique portion has to be 2 pages. My professor is extremely strict on plagerism so please make sure to pay attention to that, thanks again!
