Description

The foundation of a research study comes from an understanding of the theory and from knowledge that is set forth by the literature in the field. Before a researcher can develop a sound and needed research design, he or she must first determine what is already known, how the topic has previously been studied, and where there are gaps in the knowledge and/or techniques that have been used to study the research problem.

In this module, you will further explore the research topic that you chose in M1 Assignment 2. Additionally, this will be the time to make any needed changes to your research question before you submit your proposal in M5 Assignment 2 RA 2. For this assignment, you will create a 3- to 4-page document following the directions given below.

Using the Argosy University online library resources and the Internet, locate 6 peer-reviewed articles that could be used for the literature review portion of the research proposal in M5 Assignment 2 RA 2. The articles should fall into the following categories:

  • 2 quantitative studies
  • 2 qualitative studies
  • 1 mixed-methods study
  • 1 theoretical or research design of your choice

For each article, cover the following points in 250–350 words:

  • The problem to be studied
  • The rationale for the study
  • The type of research that was conducted (qualitative, quantitative, or mixed-methods)
  • The data collection strategy
  • The data analysis tools that were used
  • A summary of the findings
  • A statement of how this article will support your proposed study

Present your work in a 3- to 5-page Microsoft Word document that follows the following format:

  • Reference the source in APA format.
  • Follow the reference with a single block paragraph of 250–350 words comprising your annotation (summary, evaluation, and reflection).
  • The whole block should be double-spaced and indented.
  • Repeat for the next article—don’t forget that your articles should be listed in alphabetical order just as you would on a standard APA reference page.

All written assignments and responses should follow APA rules for attributing sources.

Literature Review
Elbogen et al. (2014) in their study analyzed the link between post-traumatic stress
disorders (PTSD) and future violent behaviors among the military veterans in Afghanistan and
Iraq. The research contributed to the existing knowledge by providing a detailed insight into the
relationship between PTSD and violent behaviors. The research also aimed at providing
information to determine the levels of violence in the military in Afghanistan and Iraq and risk
factors that cause this condition and how best it can be reduced. Military veterans are the most
susceptible to traumatic experiences due to the nature of their job. The study used quantitative
research method to determine the number of military veterans that engage in violent behaviors
due to PTSD. The study used survey research method to collect data from the selected sample of
military veterans who had served in US army in different units and states. Each militia was
required to complete two surveys emailed in a year apart.
The study found out that some of the risk factors that contribute to violent behaviors
among the military veterans include mental disorders in childhood, substance abuse, PTSD, and
poor finances among others in both the first and second wave. It was also evident from the
research that respondents that exhibit both substance abuse and PTSD have high rates of violent
behaviors compared to those with one condition; that is alcohol abuse without PTSD or PTSD
without alcohol abuse. However, it was also evident from the study that respondents with PTSD
condition that do not engage in drug addiction were not at high risk of severe violence. The study
will provide information on the link between post-traumatic exposure to events and violent
behaviors.
