Abbreviations and unique terms should also be defined. It should be in your own word s and as brief as possible. Running head: HE PSYCHOLOGY OF CODES 2 Abstract Codes have been used for thousands of years. While codes is a general term that is acceptable to describe all kinds of hidden meanings, really there are two important concepts to know. A cipher mixes the letters themselves, while a code mixes up the message on a word level. Although codes were originally developed for military purposes, civilians have borrowed encoding techniques for a wide variety of purposes including love letters and computer languages. ABSRAC ILE he word Abstract should be centered, without underlining, italics, bold, or punctuation.

FIRS PAGE OF EX (P.42) BLOCK QUOAIONS Quotations that are 40 words or longer need to be set apart in a block. hey should be double spaced and indented 1/ 2 from the left margin. Quotation marks are not used with block quotations, and the final punctuation is placed before the in-text citation (p.92). EX (P.44) HEADINGS Headings help you organize the text for readers. he five levels of headings are all the same font size, arranged as follows (p.62): Level 1: Centered, Boldface, Uppercase and Lowercase Heading Level 2: Flush Left, Boldface, Uppercase and Lowercase Heading.

Running head: HE PSYCHOLOGY OF CODES 3 he Psychology of Western Military Codes hroughout world history, military codes have been used by nearly all civilizations. his paper will explore some of the psychology behind codes used by the west s militaries and how they aided in warfare. he ability to decipher the code of the enemy enabled the allies to get the upper hand in WWII. American historian homas Powers (2001) wrote the following: he American ability to read Japanese cables, code- named Magic, was one of the small advantages that helped the Allies win time and then the war. Another was the British ability to read the German military communications enciphered with the Enigma machine, code-named Ultra. (p. 2) If it had not been for this secret coding, perhaps the outcome of the second World War would have been dramatically different. Yet it Running head: HE PSYCHOLOGY OF CODES 6 Since the information unveiled was so critical, the cryptoanalysts literally saved the day. Victorian England In Victorian England, strict parents made it hard for lovers to communicate with each other. According to Wilson, a British historian, Lovers would have to invent their own ciphers, which they used to publish notes in newspapers (1987, p. 115). Charles Babbage s Contribution Charles Babbage loved to read the paper and try to solve the codes. Once, he saw a message from a student inviting his girlfriend to elope. Babbage wrote in their code and advised them not to act so rashly. he girl soon wrote and asked her boyfriend not to write again because their code had been discovered (as cited in Frank & Frank, 2001). Considering Babbage s contribution to the development of the ILE he title should be centered and double spaced at the top of the page. It should not be italicized, underlined, or bolded (p.23). IN-EX CIAIONS he basic format for an in-text citation is (Last name of author, year of publication, page number). For a direct quotation, always include the page number; if paraphrasing or summarizing, you are encouraged to include the page number but do not have to. For help with citing specific sources, see pages 174-179 in the APA Publication Manual, 6th ed. CIING SECONDARY SOURCES o cite information that your source has taken from a different source, put the original author of the information in the text and write as cited in in your intext citation followed by the author and date of the work where the material was found (p.178).

REFERENCES (P.37) REFERENCES PAGE ILE he title References should be centered but not underlined, italicized, bolded, or punctuated.
