This assignment requires you to find 9 peer-reviewed journal articles related to your ‘Research Question’. For each article you need to do the following:
● Provide the complete journal reference in APA format (1 point)
o ex:
Hoffman JR, Falk B, Radom-Isaac S, et al. The effect of environmental temperature on testosterone and cortisol responses to high intensity, intermittent exercise in
humans. European Journal of Applied Physiology and Occupational
Physiology. 1997;75(1):83–87.
● Summarize the journal article in 3-4ish sentences (2 points)
o Do not use point form
● Identify how the article may relate to your research (2 point)
● Each journal article will account for 5 points – 45 points for 9 completed entries
● Spelling and grammar will account for 5 points – lose 1 point for each mistake up to 5 points
Once this bibliography is completed you can use it to help develop your research project. It will be a great resource for members developing the introduction and discussion sections. There may be articles here that can help identify methodology and statistical analysis for your study as well

This study examines the cortisol to testosterone ratio blood concentration response to HIIT in heat. The authors concluded that there was no significant difference in any of the measurements in hot temperatures vs. neutral
temperatures. However, cortisol dropped significantly in both conditions from pretest compared to immediately after the HIIT protocol.
Our study wants to examine how heart rate perform on a strength endurance test in a neutral temperature vs. a heated environment. This study examined heart rate and identified no significant changes in either condition.
