For example, you might find research examining how brain imaging is being used to diagnose this condition, or a study looking at how a treatment for this condition changes brain functioning. – Do not use a meta-analysis.

Your summary should include the following:

1. a description of the topic you are discussing

2. identify the research questions/hypotheses examined

3. describe what methods were used

4. discuss the results of the research

5. discuss your overall thoughts on the research (were the results meaningful, how might they be applied, were there any major problems with the study, etc.)
