Abstract
If you spot any errors related to APA format in here, please let Paul Rose (Department of
Psychology, SIUE) know. When in doubt, 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 sixth-edition APA manual at the top of page 88.) An abstract is a single paragraph, without
indentation, that summarizes the key points of the manuscript in 150 to 250 words. For simpler
student papers in Paul Rose’s classes, a somewhat shorter abstract is fine (as is only one space
after each period). The purpose of the abstract is to provide the reader with a brief overview of
the paper. Some credit where it’s due: This template is a very highly modified version of a
template that I downloaded from some unknown author’s web site at Northcentral University in

Conclusion
First, place your personal insights about why your findings became the way they are.
Next, cite the studies that are similar to your research. And then cite those that are
dissimilar? You might need to get more literature especially if there was no significant
difference.
Did your findings demonstrate what your theoretical framework was assuming? How do
