one page paper. Need in four hours.

The topic is in the first word doc.

The requriment is in the PFD.

the last one is the example.

Part 1: For this post:

1. Identify 2 possible scholarly sources that you can use for the assignment and post the citations for both of them in correct APA format here. This will allow you all to see possible sources found by your peers; you are allowed to use and share the same sources in your paper this week but please be aware the plagiarism detection is in place.

2. Then, do one complete annotated bibliography for just one of them following the guidelines in the assignment.

The topic is:

Annotated Bibliography – Sunday June 16th

An annotated bibliography is an organized way of taking notes. You are going to conduct background
research on your topic. You will need to search for scholarly articles through the online library system
and gather relevant data (e.g., information, statistics) about your topic to support your
arguments/hypotheses. For each of the 5 scholarly sources, you will need cite the article in correct
APA style and you will also need to answer the following:

1. The authors felt it was important to conduct this study, and write this article, because
_________? (State the relevant background information used to justify their work.)

2. The main purpose of this article, or study, was ____________? (State as accurately as
possible the author’s purpose for writing the article.)

3. The key questions the author is addressing are __________? (Identify the key questions
in the mind of the author when they wrote the article.)

4. The methods used to answer their key questions were __________? (Describe the
general approach used and include details that assist in evaluating the quality of the
results – sample size, etc.)

5. The most important information in this article is ____________? (Identify the facts,
observations, and/or data the author is using to support their conclusions.)

6. The results can be put into context by comparing them to _________? (Place the results
into an easily understood context by expressing as %s or by comparing to an intuitively
understood value – e.g., 2x the size of a football field)

7. The main inferences/conclusions in this article are __________? (Identify the key
conclusions the author presents in the article.)

8. If we take this line of reasoning seriously, the implications are ___________? (What
consequences are likely to follow if people take the author’s reasoning seriously?)

For the annotated bibliography, I encourage you to copy and paste the questions into your document
and elaborate on them. Please also keep the numbering in place so that I can easily identify each
component. There is not a required length for the annotated bibliography, but it must be clear that you
read the article, answered all of the above questions, and correctly cited the article in APA style.

After the 5 articles you will write a one page paper summarizing the research that you found in an
organized and coherent way. At the end of this paper, you will need to formulate a hypothesis or
research question based on your research (e.g., those who engage in more conflict experience
higher/lower relationship satisfaction). Please think back to your Comm 228 days in terms of
developing your hypothesis or research questions (i.e., what two variables are you interested in? is it
a variable – i.e., does it vary? Is it a positive or negative relationship?)

This one page summary should start on its own page but be in the same document/file as the
annotated bibliography. It should be less than EXACTLY one page, but it cannot exceed a page and a
half. Your paper should be free of grammatical errors and typos (points will be deducted as necessary
for poor grammar and typos. Please do not use direct quotes – learn how to summarize – as points
will be deducted each time you use a direct quote. This page should be double-spaced, have one-inch
margins, and use 12 pt. Times New Roman font (Mac Users: the default margins are NOT 1 inch, so
you mush change this manually; additionally, Times New Roman is NOT default either, so you must
also change this manually).

I did my annotated bibliography with article, Couples’ Negative Interaction Behaviors and Borderline Persoanlity Disorder by de Montigny-Malenfant et al.

1. The authors felt it was important to conduct this study, and write this article, because there are couples with one person having borderline personality disorder (BPD) and most of couples have conflict. Because BPD is a serious mental disorder and associated with negative problem-solving communication behaviors, it impacts interpersonal behaviors and relationship so BPD has possibility to control the quality of couples’ life.

2. The main purpose of this article, or study, was to find out the quality of couples’ life with one person diagnosed BPD.

3. The key questions the author is addressing are how the couples with one (all women in this study) person diagnosed BPD will result (looking on negative behaviors) different than community couples when they are scaled on coding system. Does BPD really matter in interpersonal conflicts and negative behaviors.

4.

The methods used to answer their key questions were direct observation. The sample consisted of 28 couples with women were diagnosed with BPD and 82 community couples. And they used three negative dimensions of coding system to measure the quality during couples’ interactions.

5. The most important information in this article is that the authors find conducted result that BPD has impact on interpersonal conflicts, and there are many couples with BPD. They found negative behaviors as their outcomes.

6. The results can be put into context by comparing them to result in couples with women has BPD has fewer years of education (background), which explains BPD effects negatively in interpersonal relationship, and with three negative behaviors were combined they (M=0.81, SD=0.08) had significantly higher global scores than community couples (M=0.56, SD=0.04).

7. The main inferences/conclusions in this article are women with BPD showed that they more like to control or dominate the interaction, and scored higher on the negative behavior dimensions. Thus, persons with BPD’s misbehavior in communication skill will lead relationship un-satisfaction and un-effective, and persons with BPD hardly recognize themselves wrong and well criticize the other.

8. If we take this line of reasoning seriously, the implications are like: BPD people scares about being alone but they also wants to criticize others and control (negative effect communication behaviors) that makes people less tend to stay with them. What if this world changes, so most of us become BPD, can BPD people interact each other as in family, friends, society, co-workers, and romantic partners?
