Assignment 26 - Project 4805 final Activity 1: Name and briefly discuss 5 purposes of a literature review. To help you with this, study Chapter 2 of your prescribed book (Terre Blanche et al., 2006) on „Doing an information search‟, as well as information on the literature review in this and other tutorial letters. If you cannot find Terre Blanche‟s book, use any other source on the purpose of a literature review. [10 marks] 1. To identify knowledge gaps in order to develop a research problem. 2. To identify a theoretical framework upon which to base research. 3. To identify issues and variables commonly related to the topic. 4. To identify conceptual and operational definitions of variables related to the topic. 5. To identify some methodologies related to the research topic. Activity 2: Name and briefly discuss 5 qualities of a well-written literature review. [10 marks] 1. The literature review should not be too general or vague. Facts should be very specific. 2. The literature review should identify gaps in previous research. The review should bring shortcomings of previous research on the research topic to light 3. It should be well structured and systematically presented. The linkages between the information its relation to the research problem should be clearly stated. 4. The literature review should provide clear definitions of key concepts. The keywords or variables should be well defined in the literature review. 5. The literature review should contain only relevant information. It should only include information that is relevant to the research problem. Activity 3: We did a literature search on the topic (moral development during adolescence) and selected a number of relevant articles for you. You now need to search for five additional, recent (no older than six year) articles on this topic. Keep your research problem in mind, and focus on recent (and relevant) research articles on factors influencing moral development in adolescence. (Remember to include the details of these articles in your reference list in Assignment 27, the research report). Provide a reference list of your 5 sources by strictly adhering to the American Psychological Association (APA) guidelines (See PSYHONM Tutorial Letter 103 point 5.2 for guidelines). Your reference list will be evaluated for the relevance of the articles, how recent (newly published) they are, their status (peer-reviewed journal versus an Internet communication) as well as for the accuracy of the references according to the APA reference system.

Activity 4: Write a literature review of 5-10 pages. Read all the prescribed sources as well as your five additional sources and any other relevant material you could find. Follow the guidelines on how to write a literature review under „Research report‟ below. Keep your title and your research problem in mind when you write your literature review and remember to provide the title and research problem. The following themes and subthemes may help to get you started: Moral development as a key developmental issue during adolescence:  Different views regarding moral development  The importance of morality during adolescence Aspects related to moral development during adolescence:  Identity formation and development  Ethical values, principles and morality  Relationship with parents (e.g. parental warmth, parent-interaction, discipline and parental role models)  Other relevant factors as identified in the literature and relevant to your research study A conclusion combining the two main themes above. You will probably have to re-write your literature review a couple of times before you will be satisfied with it. After completing your literature review, attach the review (10 pages only) to your Answer Booklet as Appendix A. You need the literature review to answer Questions 5, 6 and 7. (Note that we will only scan-read your literature review and make some general suggestions, but we need it as proof that you have done the work.) If your literature review is not attached as Appendix A to the Answer Booklet, Activities 5, 6 and 7 will also not be marked. If you do the literature review properly now, it will save you a lot of time later when you have to write your research report. [10 marks]1.
