Injustice on the judicial system of raceRESEARCH PROPOSALIt is very important that you have each of the components that are listed below, and that they are in the correct order (as listed below)!Your proposal will consist of your title page, abstract, table of contents, introduction, literature review, hypothesis/problem statement, definitions and references. Please title each section in bold. All of this must be in APA format. Each section will be briefly reviewed below: Abstract – A brief paragraph that summarizes what you want to research and why it is important.Table of Contents –Introduction- Introduce your topic. Why are you exploring this topic? In this section, it is appropriate to use a few sources that are not from peer reviewed journals. These may include mass media, television, newspaper, magazines, etc., information found on the Internet, books, etc. In addition, peer reviewed sources should also be used. This section is expected to be over 1 page in length however typically less than 3 pages. This section should grab the reader’s attention to the problem you want to look into – try and note why the information might be important. Would it inform policy? Might it lead to more safe conditions? Etc.Literature Review – This section contains only peer reviewed research that is related to your particular topic. I want to make it very clear, you should choose a topic that has many (you will want no less than 6 or 7) peer reviewed research articles for you to use. Do not choose something abstract where you cannot find anything to support your literature review. Peer reviewed research articles are those that appear in criminal justice or public policy related journals – they have passed a rigorous review process to validate the research contained in the article. The review process for these journals involves forwarding the research study to several researchers associated with the journal and these researchers review the study for reliability and validity, bias, proper research policies and procedures, ethical treatment of research subjects, ethical practices of the researchers, etc. If all of these and other criteria are met, the study can then be published in that journal.This literature review section is expected to be very thorough and substantial. While there is no page expectation, it is expected that all of the major peer reviewed research related to your topic will be covered. This typically will be several pages and is to be in paragraph form and not in list form. It is expected that there will be a smooth flow between articles and subtopics – much like you will find in published peer reviewed research articles. Do not turn in an annotated bibliography for this section. Rather, students should talk about the literature in summary fashion and note why the research is important and what the findings suggest. You should read over a couple of journal articles and note how they do their Introduction and literature review. This will help guide you as you set yours up!Hypothesis/problem statement – These are your research questions (what you plan to measure/examine). This section may also be in paragraph form. Research questions must be individual questions that each measures only one item (one question = one measurement). A couple of questions are expected in this section (typically 2 to 5). You MUST put these questions in traditional hypotheses format. For example: IF someone grows up in a poor neighborhood, they will be more likely to be involved with crime than someone in a middle or upper class neighborhood. OR, I hypothesize that women who are educated about the prevalence of sexual assault will take more precautions and as a result be less likely to be victimized in this way (when compared to less educated women).References – References are to be in APA format. If you have a citation in the body of your work you must have the appropriate reference in the reference section. Also if you have a reference in your reference section, you must have a citation from that work somewhere in the body of your work. The citations and references must match up.You will be strictly held to the APA standards. Proper citations, in both format and use, as well as proper references5 out 20 points:
