Let\u2019s begin with the first page of your research report \u2013 the title page. The most obvious function of this page is to label your work.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Your title page has many components including a running head<\/em> in the top left-hand corner, which is a requirement when submitting work for publication, and is sometimes required by professors in student research reports.<\/p>\r\n The running head is a mini-title that you can insert as a \u201cheader\u201d to the top-left of every page of your research report. According to the \u00a0Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association<\/em> (2020), it should be no more than 50 characters long, and appear IN ALL CAPS. If your title is already less than 50 characters you can include the entire title; if it is longer, provide a shortened version. For example:<\/p>\r\n\r\n Running head: Full title <\/strong>of <\/strong>report<\/strong>:<\/strong> The running head helps to quickly identify your work and piece it back together in case the pages get dropped or another assignment gets mixed in with yours.<\/p>\r\n A page number should appear after your running head as part of the same header, aligned to the right of the page.<\/p>\r\n\r\n A title is used to convey the focus or underlying topic for your study. Try to create a title that gives the reader a sense of what the study is about (e.g., Affirmative Action<\/em> is too vague while Affirmative Action Hiring Practices by RCMP Utilized to Reflect Community Diversity <\/em>tells us what to anticipate in the actual study).<\/p>\r\n The full title is as many as 10 to 12 words long and appears in\u00a0Bold Title Case<\/strong>, centered on the title page, about 4 double-spaced lines down from the top of the page.<\/p>\r\n\r\n The author line is one double-spaced line beneath the title. The author line includes your name and the names of anyone else who was directly involved with your research (e.g., if it was part of a group project with a group mark, you would include everyone\u2019s names). Below this, note the institution your research is affiliated with (i.e., your school\u2019s name).<\/p>\r\n Towards the bottom of the title page, centre the words Author Note<\/strong> in bold. If a research grant was used in any way to support your study (e.g., interview participants were compensated for their time, a software license was paid for by your program of study, or you applied for and received a travel grant to support a poster presentation of your findings at a conference), the source of the funding should be cited here on its own line.<\/p>\r\n Also, under the \u201cAuthor Note\u201d line, you need to include the name of a main contact person with an email address so that interested parties can correspond with that person for more information about the study. (Unless someone else headed up a group project that you participated in, you would put yourself down as the main contact person.)<\/p>\r\n\r\n \u274f On a separate, first page of your report<\/p>\r\n \u274f Identifier title (\"running head\") in the top-left hand corner IN ALL CAPS<\/p>\r\n \u274f\u00a0Page number in the top-right hand corner<\/p>\r\n \u274f Full title in title case, centered, bold text, starting about 4 double-spaced lines down the page<\/p>\r\n \u274f Author line a double-space down from the full title<\/p>\r\n \u274f\u00a0Institutional affiliation below the author line<\/p>\r\n \u274f Funding source, if applicable, and corresponding author and contact information noted in an \"Author Note\" section near the bottom of the page.<\/p>","rendered":" Let\u2019s begin with the first page of your research report \u2013 the title page.
