Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Ohio State University, 1992.

This study attempts to determine what students do, mentally, physically, and emotionally, from the time they receive a research-paper assignment until they hand in the finished paper, and why they do it. It is hoped that by focusing on these issues, the study will help teachers determine under what circumstances, if at all, they should require their students to write research papers.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This study attempts to determine what students do, mentally, physically, and emotionally, from the time they receive a research-paper assignment until they hand in the finished paper, and why they do it. It is hoped that by focusing on these issues, the study will help teachers determine under what circumstances, if at all, they should require their students to write research papers.
520 $a The study examines the processes of twenty-four undergraduates as they complete research papers. The sample ranges from Basic Writers at an open-door community college to honors students completing senior theses at a somewhat selective university. Data-collection procedures included observing classes, conferences, and library work; examining handouts and students' notes, drafts, and final papers, including teachers' written responses; and over one hundred interviews with students, teachers, and librarians.
520 $a The study demonstrates that institutional priorities sometimes increase the obstacles Basic Writers face; that problems may result when composition classes focus on literature and composition students must write research papers about literature; that using physical evidence of students' writing processes to evaluate research papers may be unwise; that students may interpret suggestions for revisions as orders; and that relatively advanced students may respond negatively when research-paper assignments are not sufficiently challenging.
520 $a The study also demonstrates that focusing composition classes on students and their writing may positively affect students' attitudes toward research-paper assignments; that freeing students to choose research-paper topics that interest them may increase motivation; and that highly advanced undergraduates may define research-writing tasks in ways which more resemble those of writers for academic journals.
520 $a Finally, the study suggests that unintentional plagiarism is widespread in undergraduates' research papers; supports Linda Flower's claim that a key to good reading and writing is to possess a fully-developed sense of the rhetorical situation; partly supports Sandra Stotsky's view that writers ideally find the focus for research-based writing during the search process, through an interaction between writing and thinking; and suggests that the traditional research-paper assignment may not be the best way to help First-Year Composition students acquire research and writing skills.
