First page only as an autobiographical or biographical statement on why you are specifically interested in your topic. (I will write the first page)
3 pages must be a synopsis of the research experiments you read. You cannot use interviews or stories of individuals as evidence of empirical research. 5th page will be your reference page (bibliography).
Your paper will be at least 4 complete, typed, double spaced pages with 1.0” margins (left indented only, not block formatted) in times new Roman font, 12- point size. Do not skip extra space between paragraphs (Microsoft word now skips 2.5 spaces between paragraphs so you must charge this in formatting). No bullet points, lists, or subsection titles. You will NOT write abstract. Do not include a header/footer or page numbers. Minimum or 3 references for this paper which may only include journal articles and approved websites. Do NOT use any type of book as reference. References should NOT be older than 2006. Research articles must be published within the last 10 years (since 2009) unless the research paper is a seminal article for the field. No Wikipedia or any other wiki site, can’t use any “.com” because there is no one to govern the truth of many of these sites. Psychologicalscience.org , apa.org, NIMH.gov , NIDA.gov are ok. When using someone else’s work to your paper you MUST give them credit. Cite references in every paragraph of the research paper in APA format. Not allowed to use quotes longer than one sentence and you may not have more than 4 sentences quotes in the paper. Do not write scientific jargon. 5th page must be a list of all the references.
