Essay Assignment
This assignment requires the creation of an at least 5 page APA compliant multiple source essay citing at 
most six peer reviewed full text journal articles fetched from ProQuest, BE & T, InfoTrac, and Academic 
OneFile.  The essay should demonstrate the following:
  Compare and contrast three business research papers as to describe how the researchers 
considered ethical concerns, ensured validity, performed data collection, and defined 
measurements using proper scales.
  Explain why the researchers exhibited similarities and differences in how they considered ethical 
concerns, ensured validity, performed data collection, and defined measurements using proper 
scales.
  Derive two rules given the above analysis.
  Explain why the rules you derived is important.
Further, the essay should have segments clearly labeled using APA Level 1 and 2 headings.
 
The Introduction Paragraph
The introduction paragraph should orientate the reader, prepare them for the essay, and explicitly state 
the thesis statement. Introductions tend to be nine or less sentences and often draw upon one of the 
following strategies:
Historical Introduction.  A brief historical review of the topic may be helpful in presenting a 
thesis statement.
Anecdotal Approach.  A very brief story may be helpful in presenting a thesis statement.
Surprising Statement.  Using a surprising statement or fact may lead a reader into a thesis 
statement.
Posing a Question.  Sometimes posing a question as to hook the reader may lead them into a 
thesis statement.
The Funnel Strategy.  This strategy opens with a very broad statement followed by a series of 
statements landing the reader onto the thesis statement.
No matter the strategy, your introduction should hook the reader and end upon your thesis statement.
Body Paragraphs
The bulk of the essay uses body paragraphs as to support the thesis statement. Strong body paragraphs 
contain the following elements:
  A topic sentence encapsulating and organizing the entire paragraph.
  Potentially one or two additional sentences explaining the topic sentence. 
  Introduction, statement, and unpacking of evidence as to support the topic sentence.
  One or two concluding sentences illustrating how the paragraph contributed to the support 
of the thesis statement.
Conclusion Paragraph(s)
The conclusions section should quickly summarize the evidence while justifying the thesis statement as 
the natural conclusion.
