If you find that your paragraphs have more than one main idea, separate your paragraphs so that each has only one main point. The idea behind a paragraph is to introduce an idea and expand upon it. If you veer off into a new topic, begin a new paragraph. E – Evidence or Examples Your main idea needs support, either in the form of evidence that buttresses your argument or examples that explain your idea. If you don’t have any evidence or examples to support your main idea, your idea may not be strong enough to warrant a complete paragraph. In this case, reevaluate your idea and see whether you even need to keep it in the paper. A – Analysis Analysis is the heart of academic writing. While your readers want to see evidence or examples of your idea, the real “meat” of your idea is your interpretation of your evidence or examples: how you break them apart, compare them to other ideas, use them to build a persuasive case, demonstrate their strengths or weaknesses, and so on. Analysis is especially important if your evidence (E) is a quote from another author. Always follow a quote with your analysis of the quote, demonstrating how that quote helps you to make your case. If you let a quote stand on its own, then the author of that quote will have a stronger voice in your paragraph (and maybe even your paper) than you will. L – Link Links help your reader to see how your paragraphs fit together. When you end a paragraph, try to link it to something else in your paper, such as your thesis or argument, the previous paragraph or main idea, or the following paragraph. Creating links will help your reader understand the logic and organization of your paper, as well as the logic and organization of your argument or main points. Reference Duke University (2006).

E – Supporters, for instance, argue that the death penalty is the ultimate specific deterrent in that someone who is put to death will never be able to murder again (Pataki, 1997). A – The threat of being put to death for an offense may also act as a general deterrent, promoting a safer community (van den Haag & Conrad, 1983). Further, some argue that the death penalty provides retribution and answers individual and societal needs to punish offenders (Fein, 1993) and that the death penalty is cheaper than life imprisonment. L – Based on these arguments, supporters believe that the justice system has a duty to impose the death penalty on certain offenders (van den Haag & Conrad, 1983). Sample Paragraph: Supporters and opponents of the death penalty have justified their beliefs on a number of grounds. Supporters, for instance, argued the death penalty is the ultimate specific deterrent as someone who is put to death will never be able to murder again (Pataki, 1997). The threat of being put to death for an offense may also act as a general deterrent, promoting a safer community (van den Haag & Conrad, 1983).

Problem Statement Development Guidelines and Examples The following guidelines should be used in problem statement development: • The problem statement should be concise; under one page. o Paragraphs should be short, such as three to five sentences each. • Lack of research or lack of knowledge is not a problem in and of itself. o Ensure that the problem section focuses on the issue driving the study; not on the purpose of the study. • The problem must reflect an existing and published issue and must be cited. o The citations should be academic sources, whenever possible. o Include statistics supporting the existence of the problem, if possible o Ensure that the statistics are recent—use the most recent publication year available. o If the problem is limited to a specific organization then the problem can be supported by personal communication. Click on the following APA source for personal communication formatting: citation formatting • A problem statement that includes a clear general and specific problem is preferred. o It is also acceptable to state “the problem” without including a general and specific problem. • The specific problem (or “the problem”) must mirror the purpose. o There should be a clear alignment between the problem and purpose. The three sections attached include samples of: 1. A sample problem statement with a general and specific problem; 2. A sample problem statement with a general and specific problem and personal communication citation, and; 3. A sample problem statement without a general and specific problem. Please note that the data and citations in the following examples do not necessarily represent actual data or references—they are for illustration purposes only. Sample Problem Statement with a General and Specific Problem (Typical Problem Statement Format) Students often begin an online higher education program with unrealistic expectations. According to Leeds (2012) students often enter online programs based on the assumption that obtaining an online degree is far easier than traditional college. Although online education is much more convenient than attending college at an on-ground campus, the academic requirements are not less rigorous (Leeds, 2012). The general problem is that graduation rates for online students are relatively low (Wilson & Allen, 2013). Leeds (2012) contended that in addition to realistic awareness of academic expectations, online college students should be self-aware regarding their personal suitability for the online environment. Although the online environment provides opportunities to work synchronously and asynchronously with other students globally and often provides improved access to the instructor, the lack of face-to-face social interaction may be disconcerting for some students (Chahino, 2014). The specific problem is that students are often not prepared to succeed in an online academic program because their personality and intrinsic preferences are not well suited for the online environment (Chahino, 2014). Sample Problem Statement with a General and Specific Problem and Personal Communication Citation Nurses represent the largest group of health care providers, spend the most time providing direct patient care, and significantly impact the patient experience. Nurses are essential for maintaining the capability, efficiency, safety, and quality of health care. According to the United States Department of Health and Human Services (2014), institutions with low nurse to patient staffing levels experience reduced adverse events and have the lowest rates of hospital mortality from cardiac and respiratory arrest and pneumonia acquired in the hospital. The general problem is that since the 1980s the United States has experienced a nursing shortage (Masselink & Jones, 2014). According to the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics (2014), although the job growth for RNs is expected to increase by 26% over the next decade, the United States will experience a deficit of 1.2 million RNs by 2020. The specific problem is there is a high RN turnover rate in the neonatal unit of one Massachusetts hospital resulting in high patient-to-nurse ratios, compromising the quality of patient care (J. Doe, personal communication, September 17, 2015). According to The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (2003), low RN-to-patient staffing ratios reduce incidences of adverse patient outcomes. Sample Problem Statement without a General and Specific Problem Leaders of over 400 of the Fortune 500 companies have made investments in China (Child & Rodrigues, 2013). In 2014 foreign direct investment into China exceeded $100 billion (Oliver, 2015). Despite continued growth of foreign direct investment into China, leaders of multi-national corporations face difficulties finding and recruiting local leadership (Brady & Roberts, 2013). Chouhan (2013) revealed that based on a 2012 survey of administrators from multinational firms in China, 54% of the firms reported problems with turnover of local business professionals or support staff. Based on issues experienced with locally hired personnel, many companies operating in China have turned to recruiting their business operations managers from the U.S., yet these expatriates also fail at high rates when dispatched to their foreign assignment (Celaya & Swift, 2013). The problem is that leaders of multi-national corporations have not been effective in improving expatriate cross-cultural adaptation in China (Littrell et al., 2014). The resulting costs to the company can range from 30% to 400% of the expatriates’ annual salary (Blake, 2014).
