I’m working on a political science case study and need a sample draft to help me study.

I will make several data sets from recent surveysavailable to students for the purposes of completing short research note(8pages, not including title page, abstract, references or tables and figures)that will test a hypothesis relating TWO survey measures in a causal relationship (e.g., you might hypothesize that ideology is causally related to attitudes on immigration). Students may choose to examine any combination of survey items they wish, but they MUST base their analysis on data from the Survey, and they MUST develop a well-reasoned hypothesis that explains why they expect to find a causal relationship between the two variables they are studying. The goal is to apply, explore, andcritically evaluate what we have learned in class by analyzingthe datacollectedin either the Fall Survey of Minnesota Residents or the Spring Survey of SCSU Students(all of the data and questionnaires are posted on D2L Brightspace). To help you stayon track with this project, I will require students to meet a series of “benchmarks” throughout thesemester (and clearly marked in red in the course schedule). Failure to submit the required work on these dates will result in a 20% penalty on your final paper grade for each of the following benchmarks missed:(a)Abstract:On Monday, January 25th,each student will submit a one-paragraph “abstract” of the survey questionsyou wish to study in your paper(your topic mustbe based on questions from the 2019 FallSurvey). An abstract is a short proposal of what you intend to do in your paper –what is your topic, why is that topic important, what do you expect to find, and how will you study it? While it is likely that your topic will change some over the course of the semester, writing an abstract early on will help you to begin the work of thinking about your paper and developing a research question. I will provide an example of an abstract on D2L as a template for you to follow, and to help you understand what I am looking for.

(b)Annotated Bibliography: On Monday, March 17th, each student will submit an updated abstract, followed by an Annotated Bibliography of the scholarly sources you will use in framing your study and assessing the state of our existing knowledge in the scholarly literature. Student must have at least 10scholarly sources, and each entry will include a short (2-3 sentences) description of how each source will contribute to your study.The purpose of this benchmark is to ensure that you have reviewed the scholarly literature on the subject you wish to study and that you have found sources that are relevant to your project. I will provide an example of an annotated bibliography on D2L as a template for you to follow, and to help you understand what I am looking for.(c)Final Research Note:The final, finished draft of your paper will be due at the end of our officially scheduled final exam time on May 5th.A “research note” is a scholarly manuscript that describes a relatively small empirical studythat extends our existing knowledge or is the start of a much larger, long-term research project. While a formal research article is typically 25-40 pages long, a research note is a much more concise report on a fairly narrow research question.I will provide an example of a research note on D2L as a template for you to follow, and to help you understand what I am looking for.General guidelines for your paper:Papers must be typed, double-spaced, in 12-point Times New Roman font with the default margins (1” on top and bottom; 1.25” on left and right). Papers should be formatted using the APSA Style Manual guidelines for political science research:
