ASA Manuscript Format Style
Question 1
Students need to use legitimate referencing styles to authenticate their work by crediting the source of information (MT Libraries 2017). Moreover, it allows the reader to track back the source of information when cited accurately (Purdew Owl 2017). Additionally, it helps the student to avoid plagiarism by citing quotations and ideas from an author.
Question 2
Plagiarism is akin to stealing another person’s intellectual property (Jones 2001:3). Using someone else’s words and ideas with acknowledging that person is serious academic dishonesty. Lack of organization prompt students to copy another person’s work without giving credit to that person which results in theft of intellectual property (Jones 2001:3).
Question 3
In paper formatted using ASA; a paper’s title must appear on the title page (Purdew Owl 2017). On the title page, the paper’s title will be followed by personal information including name, course, and other information. Moreover, the paper’s title should appear on the first page of the text.
Question 4
Three different levels subheading
Level 1
SOCIAL DISPARITY
The social disparity is the presence of uneven chances and payments for diverse social situations or statuses in society.
Level 2
Causes of Social Inequality (Abel 2010:5)
Level 3
How social inequality has impacted the society
Question 5
ASA does not encourage heavy use of footnotes and endnotes. Both should be used sparingly to cite resources of limited accessibility (Purdew Owl 2017). Footnotes and endnotes do not serve the same purpose as in-text citations but are used to cite information of limited availability.
Question 6
Figures and tables should appear close to where they are first mentioned in the text. The figures and tables should not split across two pages. However, figures and tables for publication should appear on separate pages at the end of the paper (Abel 2010:6).
Question 7
As asserted by Adiga (2008: 12) “the economic situation in India can change with a change in economic policies…”
Adiga, Aravind. 2008. The White Tiger. New Delhi. Free Press
Question 8
The U.S policy had started to change “America’s overseas concerns were no longer the armies and missiles of communist power, but access to raw materials…” (Ambrose and Brinkley 1938: 1)

Question 9
In fact, the “Political science profession, in general, failed to anticipate the collapse of the Soviet Union in the 1980s” (Bennett, Ikenberry 2006: 653).

Question 10
The natives were looked down upon due to “their affiliation with people of African descent or because their physical attributes linked them to those of African ancestry” (Coleman 2015: 5)

Question 11
Wamboye et al. (2014: 336), asserts, “It is not surprising that 69 percent of these LDCs are in Africa and 83 percent of those Africa’s LDCs are also classified as heavily indebted poor countries.”
