For this Assignment, choose between the case studies entitled “Social Work Research: Couple Counseling”
Be sure to consult the outline in Chapter 14 the
Yegidis et al. text for content suggestions for the sections of a
research proposal. As you review existing research studies, notice how
the authors identify a problem, focus the research question, and
summarize relevant literature. These can provide you with a model for
your research proposal.
By Day 7
Submit a 5- to 6-page research
proposal stating both a research problem and a broad research question
(may be either qualitative or quantitative). Use 6–10 of the most
relevant literature resources to support the need for the study, define
concepts, and define variables relevant to the question. Include a
literature review explaining what previous research has found in
relation to your problem and question. The literature review should also
include a description of methods used by previous researchers. Finally,
be sure to explain how your proposed study addresses a gap in existing
knowledge.
