This is part of my final project that consists of the following question: “Who are more superstitious, men or women?” I am going to attach 4 peer reviewed articles that need to be in this annotated bibliography.
Annotations may consist of all or part of the following list of items, depending on the purpose of the bibliography:
*Describe the content (focus) of the sourcedescribe the usefulness of the source
*Evaluate the reliability of the source
*Discuss any conclusions the author(s) may have made
*Note key points from the article relevant to your final project
*Describe your reaction to the source
What does an annotated bibliography look like?
The following in an example source from an annotated bibliography:
Waite, L. J., Goldschneider, F. K., & Witsberger, C. (1986). Nonfamily living and the erosion of traditional family orientations among young adults. American Sociological Review, 51 (4), 541-554.
The authors, researchers at the Rand Corporation and Brown University, use data from the National Longitudinal Surveys of Young Women and Young Men to test their hypothesis that nonfamily living by young adults alters their attitudes, values, plans, and expectations, moving them away from their belief in traditional sex roles. They find their hypothesis strongly supported in young females, while the effects were fewer in studies of young males. Increasing the time away from parents before marrying increased individualism, self-sufficiency, and changes in attitudes about families. In contrast, an earlier study by Williams cited below shows no significant gender differences in sex role attitudes as a result of nonfamily living.
