In this activity, you will develop an annotated bibliography comprising five research articles that are related to interventions in learning. The fields of sports psychology, clinical psychology, educational psychology, industrial-organizational (I/O) psychology, counseling psychology, applied behavior analysis (ABA), and so on ask you to demonstrate the merit of your ideas. It is important for you to be competent in offering that support, because it will help with professional challenges such as securing grants, conducting effective treatment sessions, gaining parent cooperation, challenging school boards, or suggesting changes to existing policies.Use the Annotated Bibliography: Structure Sample [DOCX] AS A guide to structuring your APA-formatted annotated bibliography.

Using the Capella library, locate five research studies related to the learning or psychological intervention of your choice. This intervention should connect with your field in some way and should result in a change in behavior (learning). The range of possible interventions is endless. If you have questions about the suitability of your choice of intervention to study, contact your faculty.

Be sure that the intervention you are choosing is related to a learning or psychological issue in which the goal is to address learning something new or to adjust previous learning.

You will encounter different types of articles while locating studies, such as the following:

Research articles present original research.
Review articles discuss research already presented elsewhere.
Survey articles are comprehensive review articles that discuss an entire field or area of research, and may include meta-analyses.
Theoretical articles explain an emerging theory.

For this activity, you will be required to use research articles. If you encounter an article you would like to review but are not able to identify the features noted below, in the Activity Instructions, you probably do not have the right type of article and should keep searching.To achieve a successful assessment experience and outcome, you are expected to meet the following requirements:

Written communication: Written communication should be free of errors that detract from the overall message.
Tone: Write in the third person, adhering to conventions of academic tone.
References: At least five scholarly research articles (from peer-reviewed journals).
APA formatting: References should be formatted according to current APA style and formatting. Refer to Evidence and APA.
Length of paper: Five pages.
Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12 point.

Note: This annotated bibliography is partially an assessment of your ability to interpret and summarize research. Thus, no direct quoting should be used.By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:

Competency 1: Evaluate the strengths, limitations, and applications of the foundational learning theories.

Analyze theoretical orientation in research across multiple studies.
Describe the basic tenets of social cognitive theory.

Competency 2: Evaluate the strengths, limitations, and applications of learning principles and concepts.

Analyze the research methodology used to study psychological and educational interventions.

Competency 3: Apply evidence-based research in learning theories to guide decision making and problem solving.

Evaluate the results of the research.

Competency 4: Communicate in a manner that is scholarly, professional, and consistent with expectations for members of the psychological professions.

Use paraphrasing and summarization to represent ideas from external sources.
Apply APA style and formatting to scholarly writing.
