The purposes of the assignment are:

  • To synthesize information collected from scientific articles, group discussion and other research to provide specific recommendations.

The assignment consists of two parts:

  • Part A – summarize each of three journal articles on an ergogenic aid and its efficacy for athletic performance, with a focus on the study’s methodology (e.g., study participants and dose of the ergogenic aid used), as well as results and limitations
  • Part B – Using the information from those three journal articles and other sources, write a 1-2 page essay that provides background on the ergogenic aid and comes to conclusions about its scientific efficacy

Scholarly journal articles (or scientific articles ) are the type of sources required for the assignment. This research guide is intended to provide resources to help understand what scientific/journal articles are and how to find them.
