GUIDELINES from Teacher
|
Introduce the reader to the general problem and provide any necessary definitions. And clearly state the purpose of the paper (i.e. I want to see a sentence that looks something like this: “The purpose of this paper is…”) |
|
Provide enough background. You want the reader to understand the subject and some of the general background and past research on the topic. You need at least 10 sources for the whole paper, and most of them will be in the literature review (so that’s about 3-4 per sub-section). Focus on peer-reviewed journals. |
|
Citations in APA style. (Only last names and the year, and it differs by the number of authors on the paper). Use online resources for help. |
|
Then build support for the hypothesis. Take everything you’ve already written (definitions, background, problem), and tie it all together to explain why and how your hypothesis answers the research question, or addresses the problem or the purpose of the study. |
|
Clearly state the hypothesis at the end (in statement form, with clear directional relationships between variables). This should not be a question, and you have to propose a direction (not something generic or going in both directions for example) |
Introduction/Literature Review
Format of the introduction and literature review:
1. First 1-2 paragraphs
The first sentence should engage the reader (basically this is why they should read your paper)
Then define your variables and important terms
Finally, clearly state the purpose of your paper
2. The next 3-5 pages
This is where you go into the past research (this is the literature review)
Subheadings (level 2 in APA format) are helpful to help guide your lit review. Think of 3-4 sub-topics that are related to your variables.
Example: Let’s say that I think perceptions of sexual assault victims will be different depending on how the research is presented (from the victim’s perspective vs from the perpetrator’s perspective) and I think this difference will be further influenced by gender. So I can turn these three things into sub-topics:
Perceptions of sexual assault victims (but doesn’t have to be specifically about perspective taking or based on gender)
Perspective taking and feelings of empathy (doesn’t have to relate specifically to sexual assault or gender)
Differences of perception by gender (doesn’t have to be specifically about sexual assault)
The point of the literature review is to present the past research on the different topic, then you tie them all together at the end of your intro/lit review
3. Last 1-2 paragraphs
This is where you tie together all the research and state your hypothesis
Example: I presented on perceptions, perspective taking, and gender, and here is how they are all connected…
State your hypothesis as your expected findings in how the variables will relate
Example: “I believe that perceptions of victims of sexual assault will be more negative when the information is presented from the perpetrator’s perspective, but that this difference will be only be true for men”
Other things that should be included:
Title page in APA style with running head different first page and page numbers in the top right
You can begin an abstract (you will add a sentence or two with each section that you write, Intro, Methods, Results, Discussion) and I won’t actually grade it until the final submission.
