Humanities Homework Help

1. Last task we have chosen to make the psychobiography paper about Audrey Hepburn, as you suggested. Overall by the end of this project, There should be approximately 25 references from primary sources. These are from peer-reviewed journals and academic texts, and edited chapters from academic books. Every week we will be completing a task/part of this paper.
2. APA Style for citations and references. ONLY acceptable references peer-reviewed articles from Academic Search Premier, Psychology & Behavioral Sciences Collection, PsycArticles and PsycInfo.
3. Research goals statement (You wrote this last week; we might need more than one research question to have more to write about in the final paper): It is worth noting that the historical figure Audrey Hepburn went through a lot during her childhood. First, her father divorced her mother when she was barely six years old, thus growing up without a father figure. Secondly, when Audrey and her mother moved to the Netherlands, they encountered numerous hardships during the second world war (Podolsky,1994). This being the case, the main question that I seek to answer concerning the life of Audrey Hepburn is whether her early childhood experiences shaped her adult life, bringing her fame and success considering psychological theory and research emphasizes the significance of early childhood on subsequent development.
