Sample paper from Purdue Owl
Click here for a sample Introduction with editing remarks. Note:
This is a very short and condensed Introduction. Yours should be much more
detailed and cite at least 10 sources.
Students must incorporate a minimum of 10 scientific sources (e.g., journal articles, book chapters, etc.) in the Introduction section of the paper in a meaningful way. You want to cover directly relevant constructs, theories, and previous studies in enough detail so the reader clearly understands your rationale for doing your proposed study. However, you do not want to include non-central details that detract from your argument and interfere with the "funnel effect."
