Describe any trends, connections and/or observations you made during your research and based on your findings.Explain what the theory is. In this section not only want you to cite your book used in class, but also at least one other source.

Two-step flow theory

1. Choose a communication theory we have (or will) studied this semester. Try to find one that interests you.

2. Do a search on your theory and try to find at least one source you can use to help you explain the theory (can be from anytime) and at least four academic studies (from 2006-2021) that have been done using the theory. To do a database search follow these steps:

enter the name of your theory under a keyword search and see if articles are available. (Some will have more articles than others. If you can’t find a lot you might look at sources cited in the articles you do have or choose another theory) Most articles are available on-line but some may be available in the library or through inter-library loan (this usually only takes 2 or 3 days and they e-mail you the article).

You can then refine your search to “Limit to articles from scholarly publications” or use the subject terms to limit the number of results you get.

Another Alternative Way to find Communication (Discipline) Specific Peer-Reviewed Publications that contain studies using the theory you selected is by looking through communication research journals that our library has paid subscription access.
