The purpose of this exercise to help you think through and apply the theoretical approaches you have learned about this week. You likely will need to Google theories related to the specific discipline you choose. Obviously, not all research projects lend themselves to every approach but if a researcher can identify a theory in which his particular research can fit, that is desirable. A researcher can also use approaches that he sees in other projects and simply adapt the approach to his own project if it is feasible. This exercise is intended to have you think about what approach you might reasonably take if you had the time to operationalize the research which you may or may not have the time to do in this course. That said, choose a theoretical approach that is reasonable and be able to explain how that theory applies to your research topic.State your course research project’s specific research question. Compare at least two theoretical approaches that might provide some insight into your research direction. Please describe them briefly and explain which aspects of the theory are helpful to you. Which, if any, might you choose for your project and why (or why not)? Locate an article that uses a theoretical approach that might help you frame your own argument. Provide a short explanation of the article and which elements would be useful to you. Please provide the complete citation for this journal article in correct APA format.

Reflect: This week, we examined two critical processes in research: developing a thorough and systematic literature review and choosing an applicable research design. The literature review process can be tedious and involves many stages. The key here is to be prepared to create and edit multiple drafts and to evaluate the literature so that you have a holistic view of the relevant literature. Choosing the most appropriate research design is also a necessary and sufficient part of scholarly research. Whether you create a probabilistic hypothesis (directional, no-effect, relative, or conditional) or a deterministic hypothesis (necessary and/or sufficient) is very important because the type of hypothesis you utilize will ultimately influence what type of research design (qualitative, quantitative, or mixed) you choose. Your research design choices will also be driven by what you find in the literature review along with the nature of your research question and hypothesis. Finally, advice from your instructor and peers will always be needed and valuable during the research process and in this course.Write: In your essay of at least 1000 words, based on your assigned paper, address the following:Describe the family of theories that the literature review examines.Discuss the major gap in scholarly knowledge that the research is attempting to fill in.Identify the dependent variable (DV), independent variable (IV), and the level of measurement (LOM) of each of the variables.Determine which of the six types of hypotheses (directional, no effect, directional, interactive, necessary, or sufficient) is examined.The Literature Reviews and Research Designs paperMust be at least 1000 words (not including title and references pages) Must include a separate title page with the following:Title of paperStudent’s nameCourse name and numberInstructor’s nameDate submittedMust use at least 4 appropriate sources.Must document all sources in APA styleMust include an introductory paragraph. with a succinct thesis statement ..Must include a conclusion. that summarizes the main points and restates the thesis.Must include a separate references page that is formatted according to APA style

Question (CXU9A) : Write a brief description of your workplace or one with which you are familiar. Include an assessment of the degree to which democracy is present. Then, explain whether the organization would be more effective if it were more or less democratic and explain why. In your analysis, consider whether democracy is sustainable in the contemporary workplace and whether democracy in the workplace is a governance issue or a management issue. Be sure to support your postings and responses with specific references to the Learning Resources.Question (CXU9B) (1–2 pages): Briefly describe the democratic principles that you selected. Explain how diversity relates to and promotes the democratic principles you selected. Based on your analysis, share insights and draw conclusions about how diversity relates to and promotes democratic principles in the workplace. Support your Assignment with specific references to all resources used in its preparation.
