1. What are the six lines that need to be included in the title page? what about the page
number and heading?
The six lines that are needed to be included in the title page are the title of one's paper in bold
accompanied by two double-spaced lines, then the author's name, affiliation and department,
course number and name, instructor name, and assignment due date in the format of ones
location. Additionally, you must have a page number that is continuous through all pages of the
article and a running header.
2. I cited a journal article (with 22 authors) in the reference section of my proposal based
on APA 7th edition as follows. Is it a correct citation? If not, write a correct citation of this
article.
Dang, J., Barker, P., Baumert, A., Bentvelzen, M., Berkman, E., Buchholz, N., Buczny, J.,
Chen, Z., De Cristofaro, V., de Vries, L., Dewitte, S., Giacomantonio, M., Gong, R., Homan,
M., Imhoff, R., Ismail, I., Jia, L., Kubiak, T., Lange, F., Kendrick, S., Bauman, W.,

Psychological and Personality Science, 12(1), 14-24.

If you have more than twenty authors you need to write the first nineteen authors' names, then
place ellipses and insert the last author's name. More than twenty names are not permitted in
APA format.
Corrected Citation:

3. My research hypothesis is that using alcohol decreases sleep quality. Do a literature
review and find an article that is related to my hypothesis. Cite that article in APA format,
and then explain whether it supports my hypothesis or not?

The article I had chosen to do a literature review on is “Alcohol Use Disorder and Sleep
Disturbances: A Feed-Forward Allostatic framework”. Written by George F. Koob author Ian M.
Colrain, This article discusses how binge drinking results in high degrees of impairment which
can contribute to obsessive drinking, a lack of control when it comes to restricting ingestion, and
an unpleasant psychological state when alcohol is withdrawn.
In regards to your hypothesis, we must first take into account how the article explains the lengthy
amount of time spent in a three-stage cycle that includes bingeing and intoxication, withdrawal
and negative impact, and obsession and expectation. The three intuitive phases correspond to
abnormalities in various parts of one's brain. Insomnia, altered sleep structure, and sleep
disruptions are all common in AUD, and alcohol use disorder, and correspond to the three phases
of the addiction loop. Alcohol intoxication causes a quicker start of sleep throughout the
bingeing alcohol stage, but the value of that sleep is worse than nights when no alcoholic
beverage is ingested. The initial impact of alcohol on GABAergic systems linked to sleep
modulation and the impacts on brain reward salience networks, such as dopamine, may be
responsible for the decrease of sleep connectivity and delay and elevation in alertness later in the
evening. When people with alcohol use disorder cease drinking, there is a decline in slow-wave
sleep and a restricted restoration in REM sleep throughout the withdrawal period. During the
initial first month of sobriety, AUD patients only partially recover from their sleep disruption.
The absence of alcohol's role as a positive substance used to change the stimulus off of the
GABAA receptors, a decline in dopamine activity, and an increase in the activity of stress
neuromodulators may all contribute to withdrawal's implications on sleep. People with alcohol
use disorder who have been sober for long periods of time exhibit persistent sleep disruptions
throughout their anticipation step, along with a lengthier latency to sleep, a reduction in
slow-wave sleep, and an upsurge in REM sleep. Several of these chronic sleep disorders may
have a potential source in the deregulation of the glutamatergic system seen in alcohol use
disorder, as stated in the article. The pathology of sleep may act as a machine to an
unacknowledged stress exposure that promotes the dependency and addiction cycle, contributing
to both the pathology of alcohol use disorder and the converse. Based on the information
presented in this article, the data does support your hypothesis stating “using alcohol decreases
sleep quality”.
Responses
Reading your discussion post was a delight! I love how I was able to see how much effort you
put into this discussion post based on the data provided and your ability to configure the texts in
a way that was easy for your audience to understand. With that said, one of my most favorite
things about your discussion post was the article you cited. When I had taken a look at it, I was
exposed to a lot of information that had proven the researchers put in an effort to test all sides of
the spectrum with it came to alcohol consumption and its impact on sleep quality. In all honesty,
it helped me get a better understanding of the effects of alcohol dependency and made me realize
I should do anything in my power to prevent it from happening to myself and my peers. With
that said, I believe a good way to maneuver from this point is by asking ourselves "in what ways
can I use the information provided in the article on alcohol consumption to educate my audience
on the effects of alcohol dependency". I believe that if you really put in the hard work and
determination, you would be able to help a lot of adolescents gain a better understanding of how
alcohol can really change someone's life negatively if not handled with care. Overall, great job!

Greetings!
Reading your discussion posts since the beginning of this semester has been an absolute
pleasure. One of my favorite things about this discussion post, and all of your previous ones, is
your attention to detail. You write your discussion posts not just to answer the question, but to
help your audience understand a given topic thoroughly. Thank you for that. Moreover, in terms
of this discussion post, I was able to gain a better understanding of how I should write my
research paper's title page and citations. Prior to this assignment, I was not extremely sure how I
should write citations with a lot of authors. Additionally, I really liked the article you used to
support the research hypothesis. I was able to learn about the correlation between AUDIT-KR
and PSQI-K and how it plays a role in alcohol consumption and sleep quality. With that said, I
believe a great way to dive deeper into this subject is by asking ourselves "in what ways can we
use the information provided by your research article to help develop our own discussion on
alcohol consumption, and in return, how can you educate your audience on how to prevent
alcohol dependency using the proven hypothesis". Overall, great work!
Best Regards,
