3) The Summary

The summary should include the background/rationale, methods, analysis/results, and discussion. Do not exceed 600 words (approximately 2 pages double-spaced using 12-point type). Charts, figures, graphs, and/or tables are counted in the word limit. References are optional and are not counted in the word limit. You must include the title at the top of the summary. To facilitate blind review do not include the author name(s) or affiliations.

Your summary will be examined by reviewers to judge the quality of the research. Please make sure it is clearly written and anonymous.
