ABSTRACT AND FINAL RESEARCH PAPER

Abstract:

An abstract is a condensed version of a longer piece of writing that highlights the major points covered, concisely describes the content and scope of the writing, and reviews the writing's contents in abbreviated form.

In short, it should be a brief paragraph that summarizes what you will research and why it is important, usually between 100 and 250 words in length with pertinent references.

Summary and Conclusions:

In this final section of your paper, the research process is concluded. You should provide a summary of your research based on the Research Questions or Hypothesis, Problem Statement, Purpose, Significance (those items noted in the Introduction section), and how you will address the items in the Introduction section with the selected Research Design (Methodology).

It is in this section of the paper that the contributions to knowledge, in the realm of theory, are fully developed and described. This section also contains a discussion of the limitations of the analysis and suggestions for future research.

References:

Provide the final "full-list" of references used for the entire paper. They should be in APA 6th Edition format. If you have a citation in the body of your work, you must provide the appropriate reference in the Reference section.

Also if you have a reference in your Reference section, you must have a citation from that work somewhere in the body of your work. The citations and references must match up.

The complete body of the paper is between 14 and 30 pages with at least 10 peer reviewed references (work with your professor for flexibility). The body of the paper does not include the title page, table of contents, appendix or references. The paper will be based on a 26-point scale.
