Introduction: Write an introduction to your research study in 1-2 paragraphs. Be sure to include a brief statement of current research on your topic (with an in-text citation of a source), a description of your research topic, why you chose the topic, what you hoped to learn from the topic, your research question, and your broad hypothesis..

Literature Review: Write a 3-5 paragraph lit review (review of studies on your topic) using more than three sources, at least two of them being research studies in peer-reviewed journal articles..

Literature Review Continued. Drop in employment (a drop defined as a respondent who reported working during the pre–COVID-19 reference period but not working at the time of the post–COVID-19 interview ) Reduced access to groceries (they or any household member faced difficulties in purchasing food because of mobility restrictions, closed markets, or food shortages. Measures of food insecurity that we label “missed or reduced meals) Government support received (have received food, cash, or other support from government programs or NGOs over the past month) Consumption, any income within 2 weeks (Current profits and revenues of enterprises are asked for the past 14 days; pre–COVID-19 profits and revenues are asked retrospectively for a “typical 2-week period") Consumer prices (based on the value of total household food consumption over the past 7 days and nonfood expenditure over the past 14 days. Consumption expenditure in SLE1 is based on household expenditure on five main staple food items over the past 7 days. To construct the pre–COVID-19 benchmark, the same expenditure question is asked retrospectively for a period about the same time, but a year prior.) Research method: Quantitative (This study has numerical representation of empirical facts) Researchers conducted phone interviews to get information. Hypothesis: Poorer countries were going to suffer more as a result of covid-19. They would continue to lack adequate support from the government. Overall resources and opportunities will be scarce..

Findings: Explain what the analyses displayed above tell us about the relationships between the variables in the study..

Conclusions: Explain how the findings contribute to the study of your topic. What did you learn? What other variables need to be explored? What further research on your topic could be pursued in the future?.
