The Criminal Justice Student Research Writing

This site has a single purpose: to help student compose research documents. Writing a research paper is much like writing any other paper: you select and organize your information, analyze it, possibly evaluate it and then record the results on paper.

When you write a research paper, it is important that you credit the scholars and critics who have contributed to your ideas. Using citations and references is the scholarly method to discharge this important responsibility. The following are some general samples of APA style citations and references taken or created using the publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (4th ed.)
