what extent does the cited literature help you understand the problem? How does the literature

different from and/or similar to earlier studies? Summarize what this article intends to add to the
knowledge base.
Strategy of Research

strategy/aim of this quantitative study—is it descriptive, exploratory, or explanatory? Does this
strategy align with the research question?
Methodological Approach and Design
Consider the following questions in your critique of the methodological approach and
design: How does a quantitative approach (as opposed to a qualitative approach) correspond with
the research questions and/or hypotheses? Is the specific research design appropriate? To what
extent can the design answer the research questions or address the stated hypotheses?
3
Threats to Internal Validity
Consider the following questions in your critique of the internal validity: What have the
authors done to address threats to internal validity? How does the presence or absence of
information about validity affect your confidence in the quality of the study?
