effects of music on brain development on young African American males and females in today society?

How does the lyrical content of music affect the cognitive and emotional development of young African American males and females in today society

For your Final Project in this course, you will complete a brief literature review on a specific topic within language or cognitive development. A literature review is a synthesis of the research within a field. It can be used to identify themes, evaluate the application of theories, and even create a basis for future independent research later in your program or career. Because language and cognitive development are broad areas within developmental psychology, the topic you have selected for your literature review should be sufficiently specific that you are not overwhelmed by the amount of research on your topic. Nor, however, should your topic be so narrow as to yield insufficient research results. Your Instructor should have approved your topic and provided feedback on your Final Project outline already. Use this final week of the course to finish editing your project and ensuring that you have used proper APA style and formatting.

To Prepare:

  • Select a topic from the literature on language or cognitive development.
  • Choose two theories of language or cognitive development to apply to your selected topic, one from each of the following categories:
    • Nature (biological perspective)
    • Nurture (environmental perspective)

The Assignment (8–10 pages):

Submit an 8- to 10-page paper in which you do the following:

  • Briefly introduce the topic you have selected.
  • Provide a comparison of how each of the two theories you selected explains or characterizes your topic.
  • Explain which theory you think best accounts for the topic/phenomena and why.
  • Support your argument with at least six to eight references to the literature. Use proper APA format and citations

How does the evolution of Music affect the Cognitive and emotional development of young African American males and females in today society?


Professor response-In the most of the rest of your outline you don’t seem to mean the evolution of music, but simply music. Tracing the evolution of music over years might be too broad for your thesis. You can still talk about changes in music in a main point (see below).original title:

so i figured if i change the word evolution to the “changes in lyrical content” that would narrow my title and allow me to still talk about the change in music in different ways.
