See the Literature Review Guidelines. Learning outcome #14 is to be a subsection in your paper (50 points possible).Writing a literature review in COUN serves three purposes: a) to introduce you to the scholarly counseling literature, b) to provide a vehicle through which to learn library resources to access and obtain information, and c) to gain experience reading, integrating, and applying scholarly information to a specific problem or question.

•Use of subheadings •Use of third person and past tense •Appropriate citation of references throughout and in ref section •Clarity of statements, fully developed ideas •Counseling literature used (relevance of literature used to counseling field)•Identify relations, contradictions, gaps, and inconsistencies in the literature •Conclusion (v summary)Other Competency in Grad level Writing Points:•Use of opening and closing sentences •Grammar and punctuation •Overall organization and following stated instructions Tips: do not use “therapy”, use “counseling”; do not use “not only…but…”; do not use “since” unless talking about time; do not use “as well as”, use ‘and’ I
Format of Paper a. Title Page: a standard APA style title page. b. Abstract: a brief, comprehensive summary of contents of the paper. c. Introduction: a statement of the issue or problem under consideration and the purpose of focus of the literature review. This section should introduce the topic to the reader and give the reader an overview of what to expect in the paper.
d. Body of Paper: you should organize all the relevant literature into a logical, cohesive format. Include a paragraph addressing or integrate SLO 14 with your topic.
e. Conclusion: should include the author’s conclusions about the reviewed literature. What are the strengths and weaknesses of this body of research? What are directions for future research? Are there needs related to counselor training,? Are there implications for counseling practice, etc.? f. References: APA style. Must reference a minimum of 4 peer reviewed professional counseling journals—counseling not psychology, social work, etc. II. References: The paper should include as many references as is necessary to sufficiently cover the topic. A minimum of 6 references is required. You must have at least 4 references that are peer reviewed counseling journal articles; the rest of the references may be books (scholarly books, NOT self-help books).
Magazines and newspapers are not acceptable sources of information; neither are web pages. If you have questions about whether you have enough references, consult me early in the term. Some peer reviewed counseling journals include: Journal of Counseling and Development, Journal of Specialists in Group Work, The School Counselor, Journal of Counseling and Supervision, Journal of Mental Health Counseling, Journal of Family Therapy. The key to locating professional counseling journals is to be familiar with the ACA published journals and to read them. A list can be found at www.counseling.org. III. Evaluation: See attached Lit Review Rubric IV. Specific guidelines to follow:
•Do not use first person. This is an objective review of the literature. To be a review of the literature, it will include support for the topic and views that oppose the topic •Include a paragraph at the beginning of the paper that defines the importance of the topic in the field of counseling •Also include an early paragraph that defines how the paper is organized(this will orient the reader as to what to expect)•Use headings! These will greatly help you to organize your paper and they will help the reader comprehend the topics •Use proper grammar including opening sentences, and closing sentences that transition the reader to the next paragraph •Use complete sentences and not run on sentences
•Remember that this paper is in essay form, not an annotated list •Emphasize findings of studies, not methodologies or the names of variables studied •Point out trends or themes in the literature that you have reviewed •Point out gaps in the literature. What are important things that we do not yet know?•Point out weaknesses in the research that you are summarizing. Be critical in your reading –don’t just summarize •Use direct quotes very sparingly, if at all
•You should have at least one reference cited per paragraph, and often you will have more than one. Sometimes you will have numerous sentences in a row that each have a citation. Students are responsible for reading The APA Publication Guide on their own time. This is a text that students need to be very familiar with throughout the program APA Style
