I attached the feedback in pdf file. I need someone to fixed it according to the comments.      Assessment Instructions Preparation Before you begin, carefully read the course overview and syllabus as well as chapters 1-3 of the APA manual. Review the Chapters 1–5 Integrated Project Overview document under Required Resources and the Research Proposal Development Resources under Suggested Resources. These tools are fundamental to your understanding of how to approach the first stage of research. The introductory section of your Integrative Project (Research Proposal): Chapters 1–5 will include two significant descriptions: The area of practice that you have chosen for the project. The significance of this topic for the scientific community. For Assessment 1, you will submit a draft of CHAPTER 1 for feedback and grading. To complete this assessment, you need to do the following: Identify a topic as it relates to the field of psychology. The more specific and focused your topic, the more useful and comprehensive it will be. Present your topic that will guide your search of the literature. Be sure, as you identify your topic, to identify the context that the population inhabits. Consider identifying gender, developmental stage, age range, region, diagnoses or health status, intervention or therapy, assessment tools, racial identity, ethnic identity, class, history and other specifics associated with the questions that you wish to explore. Identify the knowledge gap or problem you wish to address. In your proposal, your readers will need to understand why this research is needed and how it would contribute to the overall knowledge pool. To help with this process, become familiar with existing literature. As you read the work of others, consider the following: What types of problems are all or most of the authors attempting to address? What questions are these authors explicitly asking? What questions might they be implicitly asking? Create a research question that serves as the guiding question for the proposal, which should include a valid reason for your positioning. The research question should determine the scope of your proposal.

Use the literature to support your statement of the problem.” Background of the Problem What do we know so far about the area of the literature that you reviewed? What do you think we need to know to advance the knowledge base? How will this new knowledge serve the stakeholders (scientists, care providers, families, patients, institutions) that may in turn be served by implementation of new developments? Statement of the Problem Identify the gap in research or the need for additional research in your area. Purpose of the Study Why does the problem deserve new research? Are you resolving inconsistency in previous research? Extending the reach of a theory? Solving a social problem? Significance of the Study Describe the significance of the proposed investigation by explaining how the results promise to advance the scientific knowledge base.
