Which is the best title that I can choose for my paper?
Answer
Here are some recommendations for writing a title (According to the APA manual):
- Titles of papers should be limited to no more than 12 words and not have any abbreviations.
- APA recommends avoiding extra words that don't serve a useful purpose, such as "a study of" or "An experimental investigation of."
- In doing a college paper, the main element you seek in a title is one that will clearly state the subject of the paper.
