PAPER III: STUDY TWO LITERATURE REVIEW 2
Purpose of Paper III: Study Two Literature Review
1). Psychological Purpose
Paper III is intended to help you take your original Facebook Rudeness study one step
further by letting you predict how a second independent variable impacts participants. In
this replication with extension study, you have a greater role in a). choosing articles to
include in your follow-up literature review as well as b). identifying how this new variable
influences your hypotheses. Paper III will include your original literature review from
study one (revised based on feedback from Paper I), your study one Method, results, and
discussion (revised based on feedback from Paper II), and a new literature review that
both focuses on the results of study one but adds in new information and references for
study two.
The largest number of Paper III points are provided for your new study two literature
review. Unlike your study one literature review, your study two literature review will
essentially pick up after study one. It builds on and extends study one’s Facebook
Rudeness manipulation, using two levels (polite disagree and rude disagree) of your
original independent variable and similar dependent variables but altering or extending
them into a new study design.
The bulk of this study two literature review concerns a second independent variable that
you and your lab will manipulate. You will need to find five references (minimum) for
this second independent variable. In other words, in Paper III you will answer: “Given
our findings in study one, how will the presence of a second independent variable impact
participant?”
You should end literature review by noting specific hypotheses for the study. Here, you
will address both main effects (outcomes associated with each independent variable alone)
and interactions (the combined impact of your independent variables).
2). APA Formatting Purpose
The second purpose of Paper III is to once again teach you proper APA formatting.
3). Writing Purpose
Finally, this paper is intended to help you refine your writing. You will use feedback from
Paper I and Paper II to improve your grammar, spelling, and content in Paper III.
NOTE: There is a maximum 50% plagiarism limit on this paper. However, this
DOES NOT mean that you can directly plagiarize 50% of your paper. These 50%
similarity is set for our standardization—everyone is writing on the same topic, using
almost same references, and using the same instruction & checklist as an example. In
addition, I will check all the similarity reports in your paper. Copying and pasting
PAPER III: STUDY TWO LITERATURE REVIEW 3
(plagiarism) is NOT ok even with a tiny percent. Furthermore, you will get an auto 0
on this paper if more than 50% overlapping.
Instructions for Paper III: Study Two Literature Review (Worth 35 Points)
This paper will cover both study one (including the literature review, Method section, results
section, and brief Discussion from that study) and literature review to study two.
The good news is that we are continuing with our topic of the Facebook Rudeness study. You
wrote a lot on that already, so here you simply add to it, noting in a second “literature review)
section how a second independent variable might interact with the Facebook Rudeness
manipulation from study one.
1. Title Page: I expect the following format (2 points)—1 page
a. This title page is the same title page on your Papers I and II. Change a little bit:
add the new IV to original paper title.
b. You must have a header and page numbers on each page.
2. Literature Review Study One (3 points)—page limit same with Paper I
a. Make sure to revise the study one literature review from Paper I based on feedback
to that paper. If we made recommendations for improvement and you don’t change
a word, you’ll lose all three points in this section!
b. For Paper III, you will need at least ten references total. You already have five for
the study one literature review, so include five additional references for the study
two literature review.
3. Method Study One (3 points) —page limit same with Paper II
a. Again, revise, revise, revise or risk losing all points in this section
4. Results Study One (3 points) —page limit same with Paper II
a. Do I need to mention revise?
5. Discussion Study One (1 point) —page limit same with Paper II
a. One word – revise!
6. Literature Review Study Two (10 points) —min 2 max 5 pages excluding hypothesis
a. APA formatting for the first page of your literature review
i. Your study two literature review starts right after the discussion for study
one. There is no page break, so have it come right after the discussion on
the very next line.
b. APA formatted citations for the literature review
i. The additional 5 references must be based on peer-viewed published
empirical research reports. Note: Internet blogs, books, magazines,
newspapers, online stories, thesis, dissertations, or Wikipedia are not
acceptable as empirical research reports. Here is a bit more to note:
1. Referring to your first study does not count as a reference in the
new lit rev.
PAPER III: STUDY TWO LITERATURE REVIEW 4
2. Proper citations must be made in the paper. If it sounds like a fact,
then you must provide a citation to support that fact
3. If you directly quote a source, make sure to provide a page number
for where you found that quote. However, I prefer paraphrasing to
direct quotes. I allow three quotes total for the whole paper
(including the two that I allowed in Paper I). If you quote more
than three times you will lose one point for each additional
quote.
c. Content-based requirements for your study two literature review
i. Your study two literature review should use your study one results and
prior research studies as a jumping off point, once again starting with a
broad theme and then narrowing it down. You can start broadly again with
information about the new study independent variable, and then once again
narrow down as you near your hypotheses for study two.
ii. Think about your study two literature review this way: You are writing a
sequel to study one, so your new story picks up where that story left off.
1. At the beginning of your new study two story, your audience knows
some of the story from study one, so there is no need to rewrite
what you already presented. Rather, you need to set the stage for the
new sequel storyline. Introduce your new “character”, or your new
independent variable. Talk about this somewhat in isolation (what
does research say about this variable on its own). Once you define
and clarify what this new variable is and how it has been used in
prior research, start to show how it connects to your own
prediction/study.
a. For example, let’s say your new independent variable is
“credibility of source”, with credible source versus noncredible source as the two levels of the new IV. You would
talk about research on credibility of source and how it
impacts people’s decisions. THEN you talk about how
credibility of source and Type of Post TOGETHER might
impact people. So, step one is to introduce the new
concept while step two is to show how the new concept
fits in with your new study.
2. The last part of the literature review brings the reader to your study
two hypotheses.
a. give a general overview of your research question (smooth
transition from literature review)
b. state your specific predictions / hypotheses given the studies
you talked about in the literature review. This should look
at both main effects and interactions, so you’ll need to
address each IV on its own (main effect for IV1 and
PAPER III: STUDY TWO LITERATURE REVIEW 5
main effect for IV2) and the interaction of the two IVs as
they work together.
Here is a template/example of the new hypotheses (main effects and interaction effect):
Replace A, B, A1, B2, higher, lower, etc. with your study two’s variables and
prediction! This is only a template! You will lose points if directly copying the
template, or don’t reflect your study to it.
The hypotheses in the present study examines the influences of B (put your new IV at B
) and interaction effect of A and B (put your first IV at A, and second IV at B) on how
people feel about fake news. When it comes to how polite Facebook user, people will
think more polite in B1, compared to B2 (put the condition at B1 and B2 that you predict
from literature review). In addition, people will think of more polite in A1B2, compared to
A2B1 (put the condition at A1B2 and A2B1 that you predict from literature
review). When it comes to whether people want to have a conversation with Facebook
user, similar findings will emerge.
7. Citations (4 points)
8. References: same APA format and requirements with Study One References (5 points)—
at least 10 references, 1-2 pages depending on the length of each reference
9. Overall writing quality (4 points)
Make sure you have revised errors from Paper I and II and check your paper for
proper spelling and grammar. The Research Methods Help center is available if
you want someone to look over your paper and give you advice.
Other Guidelines for Paper III: Literature Review
▪ 1). Pay attention to the page length requirements. If you are under the minimum, we will
deduct points. If you go over the maximum, we are a little more flexible (up to a half page
or so), but we want you to try to keep it to the maximum page.
▪ 2). You may get 1-5 points deducted due to lack of originality. For heavy overlapping
issue (directly copying from previous/other students work or other Academic
Misconduct behaviors), you will be reported to Academic Integrity Office and will
bear course, educational, and university sanctions.
▪ 3). Use the Checklist on the next page before you turn in your paper to make sure it is the
