Abstract
An abstract is a single paragraph, without indentation, that summarizes the key points of the
manuscript in 150 to 250 words. For simpler papers in Paul Roses classes, a somewhat shorter
abstract is fine. The purpose of the abstract is to provide the reader with a brief overview of the
paper. When in doubt about a rule, check the sixth edition APA manual rather than relying on this
template. (I prefer only one space after a period, but two spaces are suggested by the sixthedition APA manual at the top of page 88.) This document has a history that compels me to give
credit where its due. Many years ago I downloaded a fifth-edition template from an unspecified
authors web site at Northcentral University. I modified the template extensively and repeatedly
for my own purposes and in the early years I shared my highly-modified templates only with my
own students. By now, I have edited this document so many times in so many ways that the
current template bears virtually no similarity to the old Northcentral document. I want to be
clear, however, that I am in debt to an unknown author who spared me the inconvenience of
having to create my own templates from scratch.

Title of Paper Gets Repeated Here Exactly As It Appears On Title Page (This is your
Introduction)
This is where the body of your paper begins. Note that the title of your paper appears at
the top of your introduction even though other sections begin with headings like Method,
Results and so on. The rest of the text in this template provides hints about properly
generating the parts of your APA-formatted paper. Notice that there is no extra spacing between
the paragraphs or sections.
The major components of your paper (abstract, body, references, etc.) each begin on a
new page. These components begin with centered headings at the top of the first page. (You can
see how major components of text get divided in this freely available sample document:
http://www.apastyle.org/manual/related/sample-experiment-paper-1.pdf ). Some papers have
multiple studies in them so the body could have multiple sections and subsections within it.
Sections can have subsections with headings. For example, a Method section might have
Participants, Materials, and Procedure subsections. The sixth of the APA manual, unlike earlier
editions, tells you to bold headings (but not the title above or anything on the title page). Below
are examples.
Methods
Research Design
Specify Qualitative data here. Also mention the method of data gathering preferred. Do
not elaborate of data gathering procedure YET.
Sources of Data
Either Primary or Secondary. From whom? Where? Etc.
Participants

ALL CAPS SHORT TITLE 50 CHARACTERS OR LESS

Who are your participants? Respondents? How many? No computations yet

Procedure
Conduct survey (tool: questionnaireusing Slovins formula or snowball technique.
Conduct interviews (purposive, focused group discussion,). How did you conduct them? No
Results yet. Computation on Slovins Formula here:
Data Analysis Plan
In narrative form (paragraph), explain how to treat the data gathered. Will you tabulate
them? Put them in charts? Will you use a software? e.g. use of Excel to organize the data
alphabetically or based on numerical values, least to greatest or vice versa.
Results
All the gathered data for
evaluation.

May be represented and synthesized using tables,

figures and other diagrams aside from the narratives
(paragraphs) to present the organized raw data.
