Course Paper Instructions

As the major assignment of this course, you will write a paper on one of the common factors of the HCAP model and discuss its use and fit within a theory of your choice. The paper must be 7–10-pages, not including the cover, abstract, and reference pages. Current APA format is required. At least 5 scholarly, empirical, current sources that are directly related to the level headings of the paper are required. While you may use the text, this is to be used sparingly. You are to mainly do your own research on the traits and how they fit into the model of your choice. The reason for this is to make you do research. Wikis are not considered acceptable sources. The use of quotations is not allowed. You will be required to use your own words; however, you still must cite the information. It is recommended that you start your paper early and have it ready to submit Module/Week 7.

Note: the 7-page limit does not include the cover, abstract, and reference pages.

1. Cover page

2. Abstract

3. Body

4. References: At least 5 references required—textbook, books, and journals.

The body of your paper must be organized according to the following content headings. You must also use current APA format.

Review of Factor

Here you will describe and define the factor and discuss the research surrounding it.

Theory

Here you will give a brief discussion of your theory of choice and its major tenets and process of change.

Use of Factor within (Name theory)

Discuss how the factor is used. The factor may be displayed implicitly or explicitly. Your job is to articulate how the factor is used with that theory.

Conclusion

The body must be 7-10 pages long, and APA 6th edition format is required. The body length does not include the cover, abstract, or references. This means that the minimum TOTAL page will be from 10-13. This paper is to be submitted by the end of Module/Week 7. You must also use Times New Roman #12 font.

The Course Paper must be submitted by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Monday of Module/Week 7.
