Argumentative paper on the topic “Should sunstance use disorder be considered a disease of the brain?” My position is pro (it should). I have provided the 3 sources that need to be used. You must use these exact sources. But you can also add any additional sources if you want.
The following formatting guidelines are required for this assignment. Note that this assignment is not APA style. Do not follow traditional APA style rules or points will be deducted (e.g., no cover page, no header).
Double spaced
Times new roman font
Size 12 font
1” margins
Indent the start of each new paragraph using a 1⁄2 inch indent
No extra line spacing between paragraphs (Word makes extra line spacing as a default, so you need to manually change this to zero spaces after paragraph. Mac and PC are different, but you can find these preferences by going to “format” and “paragraph” which will bring up a window that looks like the one I pasted below in the Tips for Writing section of this document. You’ll want to make sure the before and after paragraph value is set to zero, but line spacing should be double).
o No title, pictures, page numbers, headers, footers or other “space fluffers” allowed.
o Personal pronouns are not permitted in this assignment. This includes the following: I, me, my, you, your, our, we, they, them, us, theirs, her, she, him, his. You are also encouraged to avoid using the word “it”. Avoiding these words will make your paper more direct, objective and informative.
o You must properly cite your sources. You are encouraged to use only peer- reviewed sources from pubmed.gov. Suspected plagiarism will be reported. You are encouraged to cite EVERY TIME you refer to something or discuss something you did not know before reading a reference. If that means you have a citation after every single sentence, that is perfectly ok!
o Direct quotes are not permitted. This assignment needs to be in your own words. However, anytime you mention anything that you learned by reading an article or the book, you must provide a citation. This might feel redundant, but it is critical that you not provide information without a citation, unless it is something you knew before starting this class.
o You are not permitted to mention the title of the articles or the author names in your arguments or descriptions. The only time author names should appear is within the in-text citations (format below).
o In text citations should be formatted as follows:
▪ This is the correct way to cite a source (Jones & Ramos, 2012). If you do
not use this format, points will be deducted (Ramirez & Lloyd, 2014). When there are more than 2 authors you can cite the paper this way (Serafine et al., 2015). Please do not list out 20 different author names, just to take up space in your paper (Greene, 2011).
• Note that this is NOT APA style for in text citations.
o References must be provided at the end of the document in a “reference section”
but can be formatted using any style (MLA, APA,
