Research Project Guidelines

80 Points

This research project will provide you with the opportunity to conduct a sociological analysis on

a topic of homeless of your choosing from one of the topics below. You will write a 5-7 page

paper. For this paper, you will need to do some outside research to explore your topic and use

course concepts to analyze and organize your findings. You will need at least 3 sources. You will

also need a reference page listing your sources. Sources should be from scholarly sources or peer

reviewed journal articles. The length of the paper requires you to condense a lot of material, be

sure to narrow your topic down to a workable paper.

Topics: Choose from one of these topics of homelessness (be creative and have fun with it):

• The Experience of Homeless and Popular Perceptions

• Homelessness: History and Overview

• Methods: Counting, Measuring, Investigating the Homeless

• Deinstitutionalization and Mental Illness and Homelessness

• Your paper must be double-spaced, one-inch margins, 12 point Times New Roman or

Calibri font only.

• Your paper should be between 5 – 7 pages in length

• You must use scholarly articles for your 3 required sources, failure to do so will

significantly lower your grade.

• You must use and incorporate one of the major theories discussed in class (symbolic

interactionist, conflict, and structural functional theory).

• Format your citations and bibliography using APA (American Psychological Association)

style. The bibliography does not count toward your page requirement. Review

) for using APA format correctly.

• You do not need an abstract.

• You should be familiar with proper citation, as well as the appropriate use of quotations.

Papers that excessively use quotations will lose points. Your paper should be in your own

voice, which means using quotations selectively and only when necessary.

• You need a cover page for the paper.

• Proofread your paper.

• You should not wait until the last minute!

Forming a Research Question

Once you have selected a topic for your research paper, you need to focus and narrow, it into a

specific research question. Your question should be one that:

• Lends itself to sociological analysis

• Is not a “yes” or “no” question

• Has more than one plausible answer

• You can get information to answer

• Is answerable in the page length allotted

Answering the Research Question

• Questions to answer your topic selection and description


Name your topic: I am studying ________.


Imply your question: because I want to find out who/why/how ________.


State the rationale for the question and the project: in order to understand how/why

what________.

Further Information

• State how/which sociological theory provides insight to your topic.

• Identify how each article and source contributes to addressing your topic.

• Your paper should follow a general flow, give consideration to writing your introduction,

body and conclusion. Keep in mind that you may have subtopics within each. Be sure to

stay on topic and fully address your question.

• It is important that you do not write your paper as just a summary of the articles, for

example, do not organize your paper topic and talk about each article one by one.

In other words, your paper should include the following basics:

1. Define your question

2. Identify why your question is important

3. Outline what others have found out about your topic (gathered from your articles)

4. Which sociological theory applies to the topic and explain why

5. What your conclusions are based upon what you have read
