Example Paper

I am posting one example of a "model" paper. I use that word somewhat loosely since this paper is not perfect in a few ways. You'll easily notice the APA headings are off, for example. Despite the relatively minor flaws, the basic guts of this report demonstrates clear and complete research writing. (I should mention that several other students also had very good papers.)There is no need to download this paper, and the author shall remain anonymous, but it may be helpful for some of you.
Big Caveat:You should view this paper as a general way to approach writing a paper. For example, in this paper the author provides some citations with references at the end. That was fine for the paper, but you should not "extract" from this example that you also need to have citations and references. As per anything in life you need to be a savvy consumer (i.e. savvy extractor of useful tips for your own writing).
