Cause and Effect Essay 
Often writers are asked to explain 
how certain conditions or events 
are related to the occurrence of 
other conditions or events. When a 
writer argues that one thing leads 
to another, he or she is making a 
cause and effect argument.

STEPS THAT WILL HELP 
YOU WRITE AN EFFECTIVE 
CAUSE-AND-EFFECT ESSAY
Establish your Direction 
Decide whether you want to talk 
about Causes, Effects or both.
Present a Clear Thesis 
Your thesis should inform readers of 
your purpose or intention. The thesis 
may focus on causes, effects or both.
Follow an Organizational Pattern 
There are two basic ways to organize a cause-and-effect 
essay: 
Chronological (time) order 
It discusses the causes and effects in the order that 
they occur. 
Emphatic Order 
It reserves the strongest or most significant cause 
and/or effect until the end
Use Transitions 
Transitional words help your reader 
follow your cause-and-effect analysis.
Draw a Conclusion 
Restate the thesis and and reach a 
conclusion concerning the cause 
and/or effect analysis.
