Paper For Above instruction

Your research paper should explore the relationship between happiness and aging, examining how perceptions of happiness evolve over the lifespan, the factors that influence well-being in older adults, and the implications for individuals and society. The paper must include a clear, arguable thesis and utilize at least three credible sources—including academic readings, videos, or interviews—to support your argument. Proper integration of quotations and paraphrases is essential, along with a thorough Works Cited page formatted in MLA style.

In your initial draft, aim for approximately 3.5 pages to 4 pages of content. It should introduce your thesis, present supporting evidence, incorporate at least three credible sources with proper citations, and address potential counterarguments. Use this draft to receive feedback and refine your ideas for the final submission, which must be at least five pages in length. The final version should deepen your analysis, strengthen your support, and clearly articulate your unique contribution to the discussion on happiness and aging.

Ensure your paper is well-organized with logical progression, clear topic sentences, effective transitions, and proper paraphrasing and quoting techniques. Maintain proper MLA formatting throughout, including double spacing, standard margins, and a standard font.
