This is a handout for students but is imperfect because this is being demonstrated using MS PowerPoint and not MS Word. In other words, it is difficult to show double-spaced in PowerPoint. Remember that the entire paper is 12 font, double-spaced, and 1 inch margins.

General Document Guidelines – Margins: One inch on all sides (top, bottom, left, right) – Font Size and Type: 12-pt. font (Times Roman or Courier are

acceptable typefaces) – Spacing: Double-spaced throughout the paper, including the title page,

body of the document, references– Alignment: Flush left (creating uneven right margin) – Paragraph Indentation: 5-7 spaces – Pagination: The page number appears one inch from the right edge of

the paper on the first line of every page (beginning with the title page.

– Manuscript Page Header: The first two or three words of the paper title appear five spaces to the left of the page number on every page, beginning with the title page (but only the title page also has the words Running head: before it). Manuscript page headers are used to identify manuscript pages during the editorial process. Using most word processors, the manuscript page header and page number can be inserted into a header, which then automatically appears on all pages.

– Active voice: As a general rule, use the active voice rather than the passive voice. For example, use "We predicted that ..." rather than "It was predicted that ..."

– Order of Pages: Title Page, Body, References

Self-Efficacy and Classroom Management A principle source of emotional exhaustion and perceived negative self-evaluation in job performance for teachers is classroom behavior problems (Griffith, Steptoe, & Cropley, 1999). Moreover, teachers poor self-efficacious classroom management abilities contributes greatly to the burnout process (Brouwers & Tomic, 2000).

Bandura defined self-efficacy as beliefs in one’s capabilities to organize and execute specific goal (Bandura, 1997). More specifically, self-efficacy beliefs influence specific goals and these goals help increase motivation when obstacles are presented (Bandura, 1997; Zimmerman, 1995).

The following slides are examples of how to cite within the body of the paper. Use your own words and no quoting is allowed.

Wirth and Mitchell (1994) found that although there was a reduction in maladaptive behaviors in the treatment condition compared to the control condition, the difference was not statistically significant. Other studies have replicated these findings (Gold & Firth, 2000). Therefore, behavioral principles are still the best intervention in reducing maladaptive behaviors in children with autism (Lovaas, Greenspan, & Miller, 2002).


LaFemina (2006) disagreed with the results of the experiment.

Research shows that these results are not typical (LaFemina, 2006).

Research by Wegener and Petty (1994) supports ABA for autistic children.

Work by 1 or 2 people

Authors cited in parentheses

Reviews of research on religion and health have concluded that at least some types of religious behaviors are related to higher levels of physical and mental health (Gartner, Larson, & Allen, 1991; Koenig, 1990; Levin & Vanderpool, 1991; Maton & Pargament, 1987; Paloma & Pendleton, 1991; Payne, Bergin, Bielema, & Jenkins, 1991).


3 or more sources citedWhen a source that has three, four, or five authors is cited, all authors are included the first time the source is cited. When that source is cited again, the first author's surname and "et al." are used. Consider the following example:Reviews of research on religion and health have concluded that at least some types of religious behaviors are related to higher levels of physical and mental health (Payne, Bergin, Bielema, & Jenkins, 1991). Payne et al. (1991) showed that ...


Six or More Authors: Use the first author's name followed by et al. in the signal phrase or in parentheses every time the source is cited (including the first time)
