EOH from a global perspective Article Analysis

1- Select an article from a reputable scholarly journal published in the last 5 years (use PubMed, Ovid, or other library resources to find journals. Internet sources such as Wikipedia articles do not apply!) The article must relate to a topic in EOH from a global perspective. Examples would include an article that addresses a regional problem (“Adverse effects on the environment of water diversion in China”), a case study of an intervention (“The use of transition management for environmental sustainability in the Netherlands”), or a review of an overarching issue with a country-specific focus (“The effects of climate change on health outcomes in Thailand”). These are examples, but there are other options. If you are concerned whether or not an article will qualify for review, please email the TA and ask before writing your review!

Articles which are required reading in the course are not acceptable, although a topic may be similar. Journals may be (although not required to be) of international origin.

2- Write a summary review of the article that is between 750-1000 words. The content of the review should include the following:

Summary of the article
Limitations, critique, or assessment of positive merit of article. How beneficial is this article to the field? Will it guide others or does it lack scientific merit? (If you reference other articles (acceptable but not required), be sure to cite them in APA format at end of review).
Offer an explanation for how this issue fits into the overall state of environmental health in the global context
Please pay attention to spelling and grammar, as it will be considered in grading

3- Format the review as follows: double spaced, Times New Roman 12 point font.

Include a header with your full name.

Title the review “A review of …(name of your article)”

At the bottom of the review, include a full, APA style citation for your article including publication name, etc.
