The document discusses the importance of using caution in academic writing. Knowledge is built on proven theories, so sweeping generalizations should be avoided. Instead, modal verbs, adverbs, or cautious verbs should be used to refine statements. When drawing conclusions or referencing other works, writers must observe caution. Forms of cautious language include modal verbs like "may" or "can", adverbs of frequency like "sometimes", and verbs that indicate caution such as "tend" or "suggest". Academic writing should relate new contributions to previous research in a balanced way without directly contradicting other perspectives.

A well-written paragraph focuses on one idea and normally includes 1-2 in text citations. Try to use a mix of signal phrases and parentheticals to avoid sounding dull and to make sure your paper is well balanced.

Abstract
Two studies looked at eyewitness confidence in lineup studies. In study one, 551 undergraduate
participants saw a picture of a target âsuspectâ. They then viewed an eight person lineup that
altered the lineup instructions (they were told the target was either present, might be present, or
they were not given any information, though in reality the target âsuspectâ was always missing).
The authors predicted that participants would both choose a suspect and be more confident in
their choice when told the target was present compared to the other two conditions. Results
confirmed this prediction. In study two, 337 participants also received either the target present or
might not be present instructions, though they were given a lineup that differed in size (eight
versus four members). Like study one, participants in the target present condition chose and were
more confident in their choice than participants in the target might be present condition, but only
when given an eight person lineup. This implies that telling someone that a person is present in a
lineup can lead them to find a suspect, but only if they have a lot of lineup choices.
