Note: Many of these are lengthy research articles, but it is not necessary to read the entire article in order to prepare a 1 paragraph summary. Each of the studies begins with an abstract that in itself summarizes the whole article. They also have discussion sections near the end that generally are only a couple of pages and cover what the authors feel is significant.
