What are the similarities and differences between men and women in watching the Olympics on various media platforms?

  • You must use a total of 11 sources. Nine of the 11 must be peer-reviewed articles, books or book chapters. The remaining two can be research reports, articles or statistics from other reputable sources. (Trade journals, government reports, non-profit organization reports or factsheets, etc. will count. Newspaper articles, magazine articles and websites will not). You will eventually need 15 peer-reviewed sources for your final paper in December, but you have some flexibility for the first submission.
  • If you used the same sources for your research methods paper, you are not permitted to turn in the exact text you submitted for Research Methods about those sources. Be sure to rewrite it.
  • Your review needs to have a Title page in APA format including:
    • Your tentative project title
    • Your name and affiliation
    • A Running head
    • Page numbers·
    • The review needs to be 6 full pages long.

Here’s an example of how I would do this:

Research questions (these can be copy pasted):

RQ1: What are the similarities and differences between men and women in watching the Olympics on various media platforms?

RQ2: What are the predictors of Olympics viewing on an NBC broadcast platform by gender?

RQ3: What are the predictors of online Olympics viewing by gender?

Method (these can be copy pasted): Data was collected through a web survey of 363 college students, who were asked questions about their sports viewing and general media use, and analyzed statistically.

Results/findings (these can be copy pasted): Overall, this study found that men and women spent similar amounts of total time watching the 2008 Beijing Olympics on various media platforms. They also spent similar amounts of time watching the Games on an NBC broadcast outlet. Nevertheless, consistent with previous sports viewing research, this study found that men spent more time watching sports events and newscasts on television and on the Web. They were more motivated to watch sports and more likely to behave like ‘‘fans’’ compared to their female counterparts. Results suggest that although males and females are different in sports viewing and media use in general, they shared similarities in how they watched big sporting events like the Olympics.

Summary (this cannot be copy pasted – has to be in your own words): Tang and Cooper (2012) sought to find out if there were gender differences in watching the Olympics on various media platforms and if there were predictors of Olympics viewing on an NBC broadcast platform as well as the gender-based predictors of online Olympics viewing. They surveyed 363 college students, who were asked questions about their sports viewing and general media use, and the data were analyzed statistically. The study found that both men and women spent similar amounts of time watching the 2008 Beijing Olympics on different media platforms. They also spend similar amounts of time watching games on an NBC broadcast outlet. Men spent more time sports and sports news on television on the Internet. The study also found that men were more likely than women to behave like fans.

write as like as the topic for each article. Review each source using same format as the Tang, T., & Cooper, R. (2012) source that I gave as a sample.

Do each source separately as I did in the sample one.
