A reference list of at least two scholarly resources from the Ashford University Library with full APA citations is required. While your textbook can be utilized as a source, it does not count towards your two sources for this assignment.

By finding and supporting your material with these sources each week, you will have the research necessary to construct a strong Final Paper.

The Scholarly, Peer Reviewed, and Other Credible Sources table offers additional guidance on appropriate source types. If you have questions about whether a specific source is appropriate for this assignment, please contact your instructor. Your instructor has the final say about the appropriateness of a specific source for a particular assignment.
