The BUSI 613 Week 5 method, step by step

  1. Read the article twice, differently

    Read the article once for what it says and once for how it was done. On the second pass, note the design, sample, measures, analysis and any limitation the authors admit.

  2. Describe before you judge

    Give a short, exact summary first. If the description is wrong, every judgment after it is suspect, so check the numbers and terms against the article.

  3. 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?

  4. Name strengths as well as weaknesses

    A critique is not a list of faults. Say what the study does well and why, then where it falls short and how much that matters to its usefulness.

  5. Say what it means for practice

    Close with usefulness: could the findings change practice, for which patients or settings, and with what caution?

  6. Keep to the length and format

    Write in paragraphs, inside At least 1,000 words, with current APA citations. A critique that turns into a table or list usually loses its argument.

Ask whether the article's results depend on conditions that most firms do not have, such as large IT budgets or data-sharing partners.

BUSI 613 Week 5, sample analysis paragraph

The article reports that firms sharing point-of-sale data with suppliers reduced the bullwhip effect, the amplification of demand swings up the chain. The evidence is convincing for retailers with integrated systems, but smaller suppliers may lack the analytics to use the data. Young's discussion of information sharing supports the finding while noting such capability gaps.
