Assignment: Criminal Law Research Paper

Research paper for criminal investigation class

Instructions

Write a scholarly paper that is a minimum of 8 to 10 pages in length.

References may be found in the APUS library or search engines such as Google Scholar. The paper must include at least five, peer-reviewed sources that cover your chosen topic from the list below. Keep in mind that 5 is the minimum. A good quality research assignment usually contains more than 10. Sources should be as current as possible. Do not forget to use in-text citations to credit your sources.

The references used for your research needs to be peer-reviewed/scholarly journals. These journals typically have the following characteristics:

A. Articles are reviewed by a panel of experts before they are accepted for publication;
B. Articles are written by a scholar or specialist in the field;
C. Articles report on original research or experimentation;
D. Are often published by professional associations;
E. Utilize terminology associated with the discipline.

The use of newspapers, news magazines, and similar periodicals must be kept to a minimum and will be acceptable only as sources for supplementary information.

References like "Wikipedia," "Psychology Today," and "Court TV" are not primary sources, are not peer-reviewed (reviewed for empirical integrity, accuracy, and authenticity), and are not appropriate references for scholarly writing (with the possible exception of use for anecdotal background information).
