The Use of Suboxone to Treat Drug Addiction

DIRECTIONS

Now that you have created a thorough outline, you should continue to expand the outline into an essay format using proper APA style. Additionally, you will need to show competency in constructing a research-based argumentative piece of writing.  

To meet that goal, you will need to meet the following requirements:

• Demonstrate critical thinking and critical analysis skills, including your use of a research based argumentation
• Write between 1,000 – 1,200 words
  • Papers that do not meet at least 1,000 words are subject to a pro-rated penalty. (for example, submitting 800 words would result in a 20% loss of grade as 20% of the paper’s word requirements were not met)
  • No abstract is needed for your paper. However, an APA formatted cover page and reference list is required.
• Effectively organize your essay. Write a clear introduction, thesis statement, multiple body paragraphs supporting the thesis statement, a counterpoint within the essay, and a clear conclusion.
• Use at least four sources.
  • Using a source means quoting, paraphrasing, and/or summarizing it, including a citation each time it is being used.
  • Reference each source you use in your reference list.
  • You should use the following sources:
    • Three peer-reviewed academic journal sources 
    • At least one additional credible source, which may include the e-Library, government source or another reputable location. (If you are unsure of what may count, please confirm with your instructor.)
    • Beyond the four required sources, additional sources are optional.
  • If fewer than four sources are used, 10% may be deducted from your grade for each missing source (for example, using only two sources would result in a 20% loss of grade). Sources for the final essay must be approved peer-reviewed scholarly journals, 2015-present, from the library’s databases such as ProQuest, InfoTrac, Gale, etc..,
• No block quotes should be included. Use integrated quotes only.
• Use 3rd person objective point of view only. Avoid 1st and 2nd person points of view.
• Use academic language and proper grammar and mechanics. 

REQUIREMENTS

• You should use 7th edition APA (No abstract is needed for student papers under 7th edition APA).
• You should not use more than 20% of outside material. 
• You should not use visuals (i.e. images, charts, graphs, etc.). Use written material only.
• Only one submission is allowed. Contact your instructor if you have a problem.
