The student outlines the topic of their study, but there is a lack of clarity in the aim as they omit the word "psychological" in relation to "parental neglect," which could lead to confusion. However, the essay successfully establishes the connection between the research question and the student's understanding of the topic, demonstrating knowledge of relevant psychological theories and studies. The research question is clearly presented, focused, and appropriate given the available resources and word limit, while also being directly relevant to psychology. Although the student provides a comprehensive analysis and justification for the research question, the absence of a references section compromises the academic rigor by not demonstrating the use of accredited sources. Overall, while the essay maintains a clear focus and effectively discusses the topic, improvements are needed in the referencing of sources to enhance its academic integrity.
