Writing on Social Phobia: An example

So a friend has a paper on social phobia and doesn’t know what to write. Here’s my suggestion:

First start your introduction paragraph by stating why social phobia is a problem. Are there many people how have it? Is it awful to have? Why is it important?

Then begin the body of your essay:

Paragraph 1

Define social phobia/anxiety

Paragraph 2

What are symptoms of social phobia

Paragraph 3

Who gets social phobia

Paragraph 4

What is the hope for people who have the disease?

Conclusion

OK, so that’s the outline for the paper. In text citations look like this:

Most of these therapies center around getting the individual to better understand his or her self and gain better coping skills.  Different therapy methods include behavior therapy, cognitive-behavior therapy, and multimodal therapy (Carson, Butcher, and Mineka, 190).

You give the author’s name and then the page number after you state a fact.

The corresponding bibliography to this citation looks like this:

Carson, Robert C., James N. Butcher and Susan Mineka. Abnormal Psychology and Modern Life. New York: Harper Collins College Publishers, 1996.

    Actually, this looks pretty close to the papers I’d write for my writing class. Even when I wrote them at the last minunte at 2 AM, I still got a B at the very least.
