Motivation Psychology

Motivation Psychology Order Description   RESEARCH PAPER GUIDELINES The subject of the paper can be any topic of interest in motivational psychology and students will be allowed to do research papers on a wide range of subjects provided that they are completed using APA citation and reference style and follow the syllabus guidelines. Students must use references that are scholarly such as (1) peer reviewed journal articles; and (2) scientific books. All sources must be paginated (e.g.) they must have specific page numbers. Non-Acceptable Sources include: electronic online sources without page numbers, Wikipedia, online blogs, online newspapers or other non-peer reviewed sources. When citing a reference, it is always important to make it clear to the reader where you have obtained your information and where the reader can locate it. There should be at least one literary citation for every page of written content and no less than 10 scholarly references for a 13 page paper. The paper structure should begin broadly then quickly narrow to look at your subject. APA tutorials will often mention an abstract and running head which may be included. However, methodology sections, results sections, and discussion sections are not necessary, these sections are only included when the paper is discussing an experimental study that has an outcome. The purpose of the class research paper is to demonstrate APA writing style doing scholarly research with sources that are outside of the primary text. THEREFORE, YOU CANNOT USE THE PRIMARY TEXT AS A SOURCE FOR THE PAPER. PLEASE NOTE THAT ABSTRACTS, TITLE PAGES AND REFERENCE PAGES DO NOT COUNT AS WRITTEN PAGES!   As far as topics i'm not picky, here are some sugesstions Goal-Congruent/Goal-Incongruent Emotions Anger, coercive action and aggression Drug use and drug addiction wakefulness, alertness, sleep and dreams My text book is Human Motivation 6th Edition by Robert E.
