Assignment #2:
 
Come
up with one research idea and develop at least two related hypotheses.
Think about the advice given by the AMJ editors and critically evaluate
your research idea and hypotheses. Finally, think about the “bigger picture” points raised by Rousseu and Rynes.  How
does your research connect to a “real-world” problem and what might you
do to increase the likelihood of your research idea informing practice?
