The content of the abstract that follows this citation will vary according to the subject area.  The abstract should be concise and informative; however, the abstract must be less than 350 words in length.  Students should consult their thesis director and style manual to determine the content of the abstract.  In general, it should state the purpose and describe the subjects and the methodology used in the study.  The abstract should also describe the findings, conclusions, and implications of the study.\nA list of key words must be included at the bottom of the abstract; however, key words and the title information do not count toward the 350-word total.  Key words should be specific terms or phrases used in the thesis that would enable a person to successfully search out the content of the document if it were in a library database.  If one of the key words is a proper noun, follow the normal rules of capitalization.  Likewise, italicize or underline foreign words or appropriate scientific nomenclature.  The first word of each key term should be capitalized.\nKEY WORDS:  Thesis guidelines; Index word; Sam Houston State University; Graduate school; Texas\nACKNOWLEDGEMENTS\nType your text here.\nPREFACE\nType your text here.\nTABLE OF CONTENTS\nPage\n\u0013 TOC \\h \\z \\u \\t \"Heading 1,2,Heading 2,3,SectionTitle,1\" \u0014\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc111557744\" \u0014DEDICATION\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc111557744 \\h \u0014iii\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc111557745\" \u0014ABSTRACT\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc111557745 \\h \u0014iv\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc111557746\" \u0014ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc111557746 \\h \u0014v\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc111557747\" \u0014PREFACE\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc111557747 \\h \u0014vi\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc111557748\" \u0014TABLE OF CONTENTS\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc111557748 \\h \u0014vii\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc111557749\" \u0014LIST OF TABLES\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc111557749 \\h \u0014viii\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc111557750\" \u0014LIST OF FIGURES\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc111557750 \\h \u0014ix\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc111557751\" \u0014Introduction\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc111557751 \\h \u00141\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc111557752\" \u0014First Heading Level 2 Subdividing Chapters into Main Sections\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc111557752 \\h \u00141\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc111557753\" \u0014Here is a Second Major Section within Chapter I\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc111557753 \\h \u00142\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc111557754\" \u0014This is the Title for Chapter II\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc111557754 \\h \u00143\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc111557755\" \u0014Here is a New Major Section within Chapter II\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc111557755 \\h \u00144\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc111557756\" \u0014And Here is a Second Major Section within Chapter II\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc111557756 \\h \u00144\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc111557757\" \u0014This is the Title for Chapter III\t\u0013 PAGEREF _T","cbCaimmV4uwdJlqk","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimmV4uwdJlqk","docx",128969,22,"English","# DEDICATION\n# ABSTRACT\n## KEY WORDS\n# ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS\n# PREFACE\n# TABLE OF CONTENTS\n# LIST OF TABLES\n# LIST OF FIGURES\n# CHAPTER I - Introduction\n# CHAPTER II\n# CHAPTER III\n# REFERENCES\n# APPENDIX A\n# APPENDIX B\n# APPENDIX C\n# VITA","[{\"question\":\"What sections should appear before the main chapters in this thesis/dissertation template?\",\"answer\":\"The template includes DEDICATION, ABSTRACT, ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, PREFACE, TABLE OF CONTENTS, LIST OF TABLES, and LIST OF FIGURES before the chapters.\"},{\"question\":\"How should the abstract be written in this template?\",\"answer\":\"The abstract should follow the required bibliographic citation format, then state the study purpose, subjects, methodology, and the findings, conclusions, and implications in a concise manner.\"},{\"question\":\"What guidance does the template provide for key words?\",\"answer\":\"Key words must be specific terms used in the thesis, with capitalization rules applied properly and foreign words or scientific nomenclature italicized or underlined.\"}]","Thesis - Dissertation Template | DOCX",8]
