I need help with a Psychology question. All explanations and answers will be used to help me learn.

The Title Section of the Prospectus Form

You will be writing your prospectus by filling in the Prospectus Form. The first section of the Prospectus Form is the title. Additionally, each section of the Prospectus must contain specific material. The Appendix located in the Prospectus form describes how each element should be completed with examples. This week you will begin by filling in the title section using the Prospectus Form.

Note that this starts a cumulative and iterative process. Each week, you will either be revising the section from the previous week or, if approved, you will be writing the next section of the prospectus and adding it to the template.

To Prepare:

• Review Section 2.01 of the APA Publication Manual, familiarizing yourself with the APA guidelines for paper titles.
• Download the Prospectus Form from this week’s Learning Resources.

Assignment 2:

• Using the Prospectus Form you downloaded, fill in the title section of the form (Note: This is your first use of the Prospectus Form and you will be revising this document through different iterations throughout this course. You will continue to add text to and revise your Prospectus Form as the term progresses. This means that your title too, may go through various iterations as you refine your research, so change your title as needed throughout the course).
