Below is the rubric. I need to write an intro for my thesis paper. I chose to write about the psychology behind ACL tears in college female athletes. Depression and anxiety.. all of it. I need it written in a way that isnt too complicated, with no crazy big words and sounds like i wrote it

topic and context:

Paper (i.e., first paragraph or

two) begins in a broad manner

and clearly explains the problem

to be investigated. Appropriate

topic in level and in content (e.g.,

thesis makes novel contribution

to field; cognitive development

courses focus on cognitive

issues, etc.).

Literature Review:

Studies are described in enough

detail so that their relation to

other studies and to the relevant

theoretical and methodological

issues can be understood by the

reader. It is clear whether each

general statement is a hypothesis,

a result of a specific study, or a

general conclusion. The review

is in the authors own words, and

the focus is on the research,

rather than the researchers.

Limitations of prior research and

contrasting views/positions are

presented. Ten relevant and

related references are covered.

Literature advancement:

A brief summary of the literature

is provided, and there is a

specific, clear description of

what is missing from this

literature or what researchers do

not yet know. A clear

explanation of how the proposed

study will answer this question or fill this research gap is

included. Specific issues,

variables, populations, or

methods are mentioned.

Hypothesis:

Hypotheses are all clearly stated,

and directional predictions are

made based on the previous

literature. They are testable. It is

clear what the experimental

groups will be and what will be

measured.

Writing Style:

There is a clear organization to

the paper, and transitions are

smooth and effective. Tone is

appropriately formal. Topic

sentences are appropriate for

paragraphs, and key ideas are

explained/described as needed.

Punctuation and grammar are

almost completely correct,

including proper tenses and

voice. Sentences are concise and

word choice is precise, with

nonbiased language. Proper

paraphrases are usually used, but

quotation marks are used

appropriately if necessary.

APA Style:

Information is included in the

appropriately titled sections. Title

page, in-text citations, paper format,

and Reference page are in APA style

with no mistakes. All headers, tables

and figures, margins, captions, etc.,

are in APA style.
