Course Book Treadwell, D. (2019). Introducing Communication Research: Paths to Inquiry, 4th Edition. Los Angeles, CA: Sage.RAA 4 – Literature Review Draft 1How does this assignment fit with previous and upcoming assignments?It is expected that you will use the feedback from previous assignments to develop a strong and Complete Literature Review.You will almost certainly need to include additional sources to the previous assignment to ensure that all relevant literature domains (e.g., research topics, variables under study, theory, etc.) are represented in your complete review of the literature.Specific grading criteria are as follows:The literature review provides your readers with the framework of your research project. The text of the literature review might range from 6 to 8 pages in length, although there is no absolute length requirement. The literature review should contain the following elements:An introduction – the criteria for the introduction of the literature review are articulated in the Introduction of Literature Review assignment. You must revise your introduction in light of my feedback!Following the introduction, the literature review continues with (quite predictably) a review of the relevant literature used to design and develop the present research study (that is, your research project).Your review of the literature should help put your study into perspective. Only review the pertinent literature that contextualizes your specific study.It is often appropriate to provide a brief historical overview of past research.Go beyond description of the literature – include analysis (examining two or more ideas in relation to each other), synthesis (combining these ideas to produce a new cohesive product), and critique (explaining strengths and weaknesses of the literature). Critiques should foreshadow how your study will build and improve upon past research.When presenting others’ research, focus on their conclusions supported with data (reported in the Discussion) rather than their tentative assertions (presented in the Literature Review).Use headings and transitions liberally (see the APA manual).As discussed in Keyton (pp. 303-304), there are several different ways to organize a literature review. Organize your review to logically lead the reader to your eventual RQ or H. (Tip – If you are struggling with organization, consider the following topical format. First, discuss your first variable in one subsection, then your second variable in another subsection. Theory may be discussed before, after, or concomitantly with the discussion of the variables. Finally, end with analysis and synthesis of the two variables and formal presentation of a hypothesis or research question in the final subsection. Each subsection should be marked with a heading.)You should propose one (and only one) research question or hypothesis at the very end of your literature review.For the purpose of the assignment, state your RQ or H formally and separately (in a new paragraph). RQs should be denoted as RQ1 or RQ1 and Hs should be denoted as H1 or H1.Make sure that your literature review prepares the reader for your specific RQ or H. For example, make sure that your literature review reviews the relevant literature for both of the variables in your RQ or H (not just one variable).Include a reference page of all sources cited in the literature review (and only those cited in the literature review). Use APA style (the manual itself and the style wizard). In the text of your literature review, be sure to cite sources properly (the APA manual is the definitive resource, but also seek the APA style wizard (http://www.stylewizard.comLinks to an external site.).The literature review is different from a journal article critique.Your literature review may reference books, communication research and non-communication research journal articles. Sometimes non-scholarly works may be included to help document extremely recent trends, but generally, these works should be used judiciously. Please consult with me about citing non-scholarly works (e.g., newspapers, certain websites, etc.).In your literature review, avoid discussing your sources (e.g., articles and books) separately paragraph by paragraph. That is, avoid discussing the first article in the first paragraph, the second article in the second paragraph, and so on. Instead, think about your sources more holistically. It often works better to discuss ideas paragraph by paragraph.Your assignment will be graded on completeness and he accuracy and strength of ideas.Clear, coherent, and error-free writing is important. Use APA style accurately. Strive for orderly, smooth, economical, precise, and clear expression (see the APA manual). Remember to write in the third person. Also consult your notes, relevant chapters, and various examples of communication research.PreviousNextWork Cited:Ebook Central – Proquest, ebookcentral.proquest.com/.

Work/ School life Balance
I decided to choose this topic because it is something that I am personally going through now. We already know many students are also either part time or full-time employees. We would
need to know more the depth in how these students are currently doing well while working and going to school at the same time along with having other duties in their homes, and with their
relatives. I would like to read furthermore articles and surveys that the students whom are experiencing this or have already lived this, and how they overcame successfully. The book What
Work? What Life? What Balance? Talks about how the balance works in work environment and other activities etc.

Annotated Bibliography
1. 35 Transformative Work-Life Balance Survey Questions,

Accessed 8 Mar. 2024.
2. Work-life balance Survey
3. Work-life balance patterns enables organizations to foster an environment where
employees not only thrive but also remain loyal. To ensure a holistic understanding of
employee well-being and to fine-tune workplace culture, the work-life balance survey is
indispensable.
4. The article provided great survey questions, however, it needed to have more information
giving us the resolution to some of the questions.
5. I can best use it by being guided. Using as example the questions the survey has already
written down.
6. “A well-constructed survey is a mirror, reflecting the intricate facets of an employee’s
experience. “

2. This article examines two leading cases in organizations providing employee
self-rostering for work-family balance, a little-reported area of employment
relations innovation. These cases highlight that such schemes can be successful
for managements and employees even in highly routine, mechanized production
environments.
3. Evidence suggests that working parents’ preferences are largely unmet and that
working-time schedules remain a critical source of work-family con?ict
4. The article could specialize a bit further in more local/ bigger cities and not farther out,
that is just my point of view, however I am sure there are many more articles within more
local cities.
5. I can use the information given to compare with other articles and the information they
give.
6. “This article thus breaks new ground in three interrelated ways. First, it looks at a littleknown area of employment relations experimentation with great promise for improving
peoples’ lives. Second, it goes beyond the usual focus on management strategy formulation to also examine management’s subsequent retention of these practices. In this, we use managers’ own explanations as a basis for evaluating the relevance of the four theoretical explanation sets outlined above. Third, this article shifts attention to highly routine, low skill, mechanized production environments facing tight schedules – a greatly under-researched area regarding family-friendly hours schemes.” (Work Life Balance 240 -241.)

2. Employers increasingly attempt to create the right environments where employees experience work–life balance.
3. The question becomes, how do employee work–life balance and work engagement relate to one another? A similar question concerns human resource development (HRD)
practitioners who seek to help both employees with balancing their work and life and employers with their organizational goals.
4. The paper is well broken down into sections, providing an overview of work engagement.
Discussing its definitions and the results from empirical studies on this topic. Including a theoretical lens that helps to explain the relationship between work engagement.
5. This article can help with the research in areas of employee work engagement and employee psychological well-being has gained increasing interest in the fields of human
resource development and organizational behavior.

2. This study investigates the effects of work-life balance (WLB) on several individual outcomes across cultures. Using a sample of 1,416 employees from seven distinct
populations
3. “A recent review of cross-national work-life research has identified only two crosscultural studies focusing on WLB compared with 29 focusing on conflict and nine on
enrichment; the only cultural dimension examined in these studies was gender
egalitarianism (Ollier-Malaterre, 2014). This is a clear shortcoming of current research
given that numerous calls have been issued to broaden the scope and ambition of worklife research by conducting cross-national studies that consider the impact of multiple
cultural dimensions.” (UPC Pg. 3)
4. This manuscript used many other work cited from other articles.
5. I can best use this article with the information provided and see how it can intertwine my
paper.
6. “Instead, in individualistic cultures work is generally viewed as an individual
achievement that contributes to self-actualization and that is incompatible with family
roles” (UPC Pg. 7)

2. This article is narrating the life of a young physician mother.
3. This article narrates the experiences of the young physician mother.
4. It would be more helpful to have more in depth.
5. I can best use this article by using her own personal experiences as examples.
6. “Motherhood quickly came with a reality check, ever more complicated by the COVID19 pandemic and having family far away from us. I had envisioned experiencing the
overwhelming sense of pure happiness and perfection that comes with a new baby. I did
experience a heart full of happiness and unconditional love, but I also experienced
periods of overwhelming and unexplainable sadness.” (Work-Life Balance vs. WorkLife Integration)
