ANALYZING DIVERSE VOICES AND CULTURAL INTERACTIONS
I HAVE ATTACHED THE WRITING GUIDELINES AS WELL AS A LIST OF TOPICS TO CHOOSE FROM

Review the Resources and identify a clinical issue of interest that can form the basis of a clinical inquiry. Keep in mind that the clinical issue you identify for your research will stay the same for the entire course. 
Based on the clinical issue of interest and using keywords related to the clinical issue of interest, search at least four different databases in the Walden Library to identify at least four relevant peer-reviewed articles related to your clinical issue of interest. You should not be using systematic reviews for this assignment, select original research articles.
Review the results of your peer-reviewed research and reflect on the process of using an unfiltered database to search for peer-reviewed research.
Reflect on the types of research methodologies contained in the four relevant peer-reviewed articles you selected.
Part 1: Identifying Research Methodologies
After reading each of the four peer-reviewed articles you selected, use the Matrix Worksheet template to analyze the methodologies applied in each of the four peer-reviewed articles. Your analysis should include the following:
The full citation of each peer-reviewed article in APA format.
A brief (1-paragraph) statement explaining why you chose this peer-reviewed article and/or how it relates to your clinical issue of interest, including a brief explanation of the ethics of research related to your clinical issue of interest.
A brief (1-2 paragraph) description of the aims of the research of each peer-reviewed article.
A brief (1-2 paragraph) description of the research methodology used. Be sure to identify if the methodology used was qualitative, quantitative, or a mixed-methods approach. Be specific.
A brief (1- to 2-paragraph) description of the strengths of each of the research methodologies used, including reliability and validity of how the methodology was applied in each of the peer-reviewed articles you selected.

Instructions
For this project, you will read one of the following books (most are very short) or you can pick 2 youtube videos that are personal development-based. One idea if doing the youtube videos would be to find videos that are about one of the books below, done by one of the authors below or simply search “personal development” and a particular area you are interested in like “personal development” and “motivation”, “communication skills”, “leadership”. This will undoubtedly bring up many hits. You will need to watch 2 videos that are each at LEAST 15 minutes a piece!!
