Complete an annotated bibliography for a position paper related to mood disorders.
In this week, you will complete an annotated bibliography for a position paper related to mood disorders that you will complete in Week 5.
An annotated bibliography is a brief summary and analysis of a journal article. For this assignment, you must provide an annotated bibliography of at least six peer-reviewed academic journal articles describing research related to your chosen topic. The articles do not need to be empirical studies but are required to be primary sources. Each article must have been published within the past five years.
For more information on the required format of the bibliography, visit the South University Online Citation Resources: APA Style page. The annotated bibliography will be used as a part of the literature review for your course project due in Week 5.
Tasks:
Choose any one of the following topics for your position paper and create an annotated bibliography for your topic:
- The social/environmental, cognitive, emotional, and/or developmental factors: Examining the factors that may contribute to the onset and severity of mood and/or anxiety disorders
- Treatments for mood and/or anxiety disorders: Comparing and contrasting biological and psychosocial approaches
- Suicide: Prevention, intervention, and the relationship with mood disorders
- Comorbidity (substance abuse and mood and/or anxiety disorders: A review of current research
- Quality of life: How mood and/or anxiety disorders affect work, home, and relationships
Locate at least six peer-reviewed academic journal articles on your chosen topic from the South University Online Library. Please make sure that the articles are not more than five to six years old. What cannot be used for articles are web sources (other than the library), Wikipedia, textbooks, and other books. For the analysis portion of the article, it is expected that you will use sources like the text or other reliable sources to support your analysis. Those references will be listed in the reference section.
Please remember that all journal articles selected must relate to the course and must be relevant to anxiety and/or mood disorders. For example, if you choose suicide as the topic for your position paper and annotated bibliography, the selected journal articles must relate to suicide and anxiety and/or mood disorders. It is not sufficient to merely discuss suicide in general. You must link suicide with an analysis of anxiety and/or mood disorders. If you choose to discuss comorbidity, your journal articles and analysis must relate back to anxiety and/or mood disorders. It is not sufficient to analyze comorbidity in general. The journal articles and analysis must be relevant to the course, anxiety and/or mood disorders

- Write a 2-paragraph summary for each article.
