The BUSI 613 Week 3 method, step by step
Read the article twice, differently
First read for the story, second read for the method. The critique is graded on the second read: design, sample, data collection, analysis and the honesty of the conclusions.
Describe before you judge
Open with an accurate, brief description of the study: purpose, question or hypothesis, design, sample and main findings. The critique only works if the reader trusts your summary.
Appraise each part of the study
Work through the study section by section and ask the questions the course uses: is the design suited to the question, is the sample adequate, are the measures valid, do the results support the conclusions?
Name strengths as well as weaknesses
Balance the appraisal. Strengths that are explained carry as much weight with graders as weaknesses, and a one-sided critique reads as careless.
Say what it means for practice
Finish by judging whether the findings are strong enough to use, and where. This is where the critique earns the analysis points in BUSI 613.
Keep to the length and format
Hold to At least 1,000 words and write in narrative form with current APA, not as bullet points, unless the instructions say otherwise.
Identify the article's main contribution in one sentence before analyzing it; that sentence anchors the rest of the review.

A topic angle that works
Relate the article to the week's chapters, such as capacity planning, and evaluate whether its evidence supports its recommendations.
Model paragraph with notes
An original paragraph written by our desk to show the register that earns full rubric credit. It is study material: learn the moves, then write your own.
The article's main contribution is evidence that holding modest spare capacity reduces lost sales more than it raises cost in volatile markets. Its simulation is careful, but the demand patterns are artificial. Young's discussion of capacity cushions supports the finding, and a manager could test it by comparing stockout costs with the cost of idle capacity in their own plant.
