review seventh edition APA formatting
for a paper and we're going to start
with the running head and you'll note
that there no longer is the words
running head on the first page you still
have your title of your paper in all
caps and you still have your page number
below that about ten spaces down is the
title of your paper in bold in about ten
to twelve spaces down from there you
will have the author followed by the
college comma then the university will
then have the number of your class colon
and then the title of your class the
next line you have the professor that is
instructing the class followed by the
date that the paper is written please
note that the entire paper is
double-spaced after the title page we
will see that you still have your
running head at the top which is your
title and under your running head you
will have the title of your paper in
bold center this is a paraphrase and
this is a reference that has three or
more authors in numerals for 7th edition
APA is that three or more authors lists
for all citations the name of the first
author followed by at all
this direct quote has quotations amount
around it followed by the in-text
citation which is Johnson and Fisher
comma 2018 followed by a paragraph
number all direct quotes my
contain a paragraph number or page
number followed by a period next you'll
see that we have a level 1 header in
bold and a level 2 header this is a
direct quote that was 40 words or more
and for direct quotes that are 40 words
or more you must do them in block
formatting so you indent to the right 5
spaces the entire quote and you follow
it by an in-text citation you include a
paragraph number or page number at the
end of your in-text citations for all
direct quotes you'll also notice that in
brackets we have APA this is the
abbreviation of the title of a company
after you have initially stated the
entire title of a company and it has an
abbreviation you put the abbreviation in
brackets and the next time you use it
for an in-text citation you can just use
APA comma 2019 and then your page or
paragraph number
here's another direct quote by Lovella &
gallon again this includes a page number
and something to note for scholarly
writing only 10% of your writing should
be cited the rest should be your own

of the article the next reference we
have is a journal with a DOI number the
way we references is we use the last
name of the first author followed by a
comma and then the first initial of
their first name followed by a period
and comma we do this for all the authors
until we get to the year that it was
written we just state the year not a
month or a day we then have the title of
the journal article and you'll notice
that the C on changing is capitalized
but none of the other letters are
capitalized for these words if you have
a colon you might be capitalized the
first letter of the first word you also
capitalize proper nouns in a journal

italicized volume and then the issue is
not italicized and it is in parentheses
