Chapter Five: The Introduction

Haslbeck, F. B. (2012). Research strategies to achieve a deeper understanding of active music


therapy in neonatal care Music and Medicine, 4(4), 205-214.

Read the article. Answer the question: Is this study an example of using a well-thought out
introduction related to the research topic? How does the author introduce the ideas of music and
neonatal care? What is your analysis of the author’s attempt to achieve “deeper understanding?”
Comment on the following:

 Introductions to Sensitive Topics and Participants, The Relationship between the


Introduction and the Research Purpose/Problem, The Author’s Use of Sense
Making.
 Evaluate other studies that use sensitive topics and participants and compare their
introductions—how are the different, the same?
 Construct a table or figure that contains the elements of a good introduction to
research.
 Practice writing your own introduction to research you are contemplating; then
compare your idea and the author’s idea from this article.
