The American Family
Order Instructions
As we have seen in our readings thus far, the American Family has undergone many changes. These changes are impacting relationships, marriage, families, and parenthood. Of these 4 areas, choose 1 area that is of most interest to you to do some additional research on the changes that have occurred. Find 2 recent (within the last 5-7 years) scholarly articles on the area that you have selected that reflect the changes that have occurred. Briefly summarize each article and then compare and contrast the 2 articles. Your paper will include an introduction of the topic, a no more than 2 paragraph summary for each article selected, a 1-2 paragraph discussion comparing and contrasting the information found. Please create your assignment as an APA formatted word document to included a cover page, a reference page and APA formatted citations throughout. You will NOT need an abstract for this assignment. Please see the grading rubric below.
Note: if you are unsure of what a scholarly article is, please see the resources in the Library. https://www.apus.edu/apus-library/online-research/search/getting-started/finding-articles.html
