Journal of the American Psychiatric Nurses Association HW

Nurses Association: I will recommend the Journal of the American Psychiatric Nurses Association as one of the professional journal for the publication of article and the presentation of project. I have suggested this journal because of its large number of reader lists, the appropriateness to my change proposal and valid source for the dissemination of appropriate and up to date clinical information. Nursing Global would be appropriate conference forum to present the project presentation in the form of article. The selection of this source is because of the validity of the source and capturing the right audience at the right time. Dissemination of precious information requires appropriate platform and I think for this project presentation the suggested are the right option for the management of the project to disseminate their project in front of the right audience and to get the appropriate response (Hynes, et.al., 2010). Communication cycle can be completed through the attainment of appropriate response from the targeted audience and these platforms will help a lot in the overall success of the project of change proposal.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
