Title: “Exploring the Effects of Social Media Usage on Mental Health: A Research Design”

The cumulating assignment for this course is a full research design paper. A research design is essentially a full research project minus actually collecting and analyzing the data. Make sure to add an introduction and conclusion to your final paper.
Your final paper should be a minimum of 12 double spaced pages, 12-point New Time Roman font. Please note, your goal is to produce a quality research design. Your research question and/or complexity of your study will dictate your final page count. Remember, there is no such thing as a perfect research design. Rather, a good researcher clearly states everything up front, highlights methodological choices, and provides sound and compelling justification/evidence for such choices. Include proper in-text citations and a reference page. Students are required to use APA citation/reference format. 
Your research design paper must include the following information:
Cover Page
Introduction
Statement of the Problem
Purpose of the Study
Research Question
Significance of the Study
Brief Review of the Literature
Date & Methodology
Research Design
Population/Sample
Materials/Instrumentation

I have included all pieces that were required each week leading up to this final project.  Please let me know if there are any questions.
