This paper is an academic exercise not for publication. In your next semester you will work further on your data with your advisor obtain IRB approvals if applicable and have real data. Until then you will run mock data on SPSS or use the public data sets that you have obtained so that you have prepared your codebook and thought through to your results section in a deeper way. This exercise helps you prevent spending a lot of time on merging data sets only to find out it did not have the one variable you really needed.
You will use the IMRaD format for the paper.

You must clearly state which of your variables or if the entire dataset is mock or combination. Mock data simply means that you are going to ?make up? your data set by filling into an SPSS spreadsheet the answers to the data you plan to collect.
The paper may not be longer than 15 pages excluding the Title Abstract and Reference pages. You must use APA format. PLEASE NOTE that 25% of your grade is format correct grammar spelling punctuation etc.
