    The first 3-5 pages (excluding title page, abstract, and reference pages) need to include:

    * An APA style title page on page 1 
        * Remember, you are not required to use a running header, but if you do include one it needs to be formatted correctly.
        * You DO need to include page numbering
    * A draft of your Abstract on page 2 
        * This should be a short paragraph, approx. 4-6 sentences at this point
    * Starting on page 3, you need to have 3-5 pages of outlined information including ALL of the following:
        * 7 Sections: Introduction, DSM-5 Diagnostic Criteria, Incidence & Prevalence, Theoretical Perspectives, Treatments, Case Study, Conclusion
            * You can have additional sections or subsections as needed, but the 7 above must be included at a minimum.
        * Each section needs to include a properly formatted section header and have a multi-level bulleted list of the information you plan to use in that section.
            * NOTE: The information in this assignment description is a great example of what your outline should look like in terms of the multi-level bulleted list! Also check out the sample outline linked here for another example. 
    * The last page(s) must include your full references page(s), with a minimum of 10 APA style formatted references (at least half must be peer-reviewed journal articles, not websites). Articles should be from 2010 or later.
