Activity 1: Summarizing Multiple Sentences
This activity consists of three steps:
1. Read the following published sentences and summarize the authors' findings in
your own words in one sentence.
2. Write an APA Style reference list entry for the published work using the source
information provided (see Chapter 10 of the Publication Manual for examples).
3. Figure out the in-text citation that corresponds to your reference list entry. Then
add a narrative citation to your paraphrased sentence. You do not need to re-cite the
works that are already cited in the published sentences.
Published Sentences
Research suggests that people exercise less when demands in their job or studies
increase (Englert & Rummel, 2016; Oaten & Cheng, 2005; Sonnentag & Jelden,
2009). Building upon these findings, the present study investigated the relationship
between university students’ implicit theories about willpower and the amount they
exercise during their final examination period. We hypothesized and found that
students with a limited theory about willpower— those who believed that their self-
control resembles a limited resource—exercised significantly less than students with a
nonlimited theory during this stressful period (about 220 min less over the course of 2
weeks).
