Assignment 1：
Part I
After reading and annotating “Research: Men Speak More Abstractly Than Women” (Wakslak and Joshi, 2022), write a summary of approximately 350-400 words using the principles we’ve discussed. This includes addressing main ideas accurately, avoiding plagiarism by appropriately paraphrasing, and using APA in-text citations. Please avoid quotations for this assignment.
Your submission should include a title page, be formatted according to APA style standards (e.g., double-spaced), and include a separate APA-style reference page.
For best results, please view the Turnitin report. You should address any issues with improper paraphrasing, quoting, citing, etc. before the deadline.
Part II

- What changes did you make from the first to the final draft? What did you add? What did you delete? What did you move? Why did you make these changes?
- How did you avoid sentence-level errors and adhere to APA style?
- Did you, at any point in the writing process, draw on any outside help, such as AI tools, a tutor, or a friend?
- Is there anything you would change about the process of writing this paper if you had to do it again?
