Abstract

[The abstract should be one paragraph of between 150 and 250 words. It is not indented.

Section titles, such as the word Abstract above, are not considered headings so they don’t use

bold heading format. Instead, use the Section Title style. This style automatically starts your

section on a new page, so you don’t have to add page breaks. (To see your document with

pagination, on the View tab, click Reading View.) Note that all text styles for this template are

available on the Home tab of the ribbon, in the Styles gallery.]

Keywords: [Add keywords here. To replace this (or any) tip text with your own, just

select it and then start typing. Don’t include space to the right or left of the characters in your

selection.]

[Add Title Here, up to 12 Words, on One to Two Lines]

[The body of your paper uses a half-inch first line indent and is double-spaced. APA

style provides for up to five heading levels, shown in the paragraphs that follow. Note that the

word Introduction should not be used as an initial heading, as it’s assumed that your paper

begins with an introduction.]

[Heading 1]

[The first two heading levels get their own paragraph, as shown here. Headings 3, 4, and

5 are run-in headings used at the beginning of the paragraph.]

[Heading 2]1

[For APA formatting requirements, it’s easy to just type your own footnote references

and notes. To format a footnote reference, select the number and then, on the Home tab, in the

Styles gallery, click Footnote Reference.]

[Heading 3]. [Include a period at the end of a run-in heading. Note that you can include

consecutive paragraphs with their own headings, where appropriate.]

[Heading 4]. [When using headings, don’t skip levels. If you need a heading 3, 4, or 5

with no text following it before the next heading, just add a period at the end of the heading and

then start a new paragraph for the subheading and its text.] (Last Name, Year)

[Heading 5]. [Like all sections of your paper, references start on their own page, as you

see on the page that follows. Just type in-text citations as you do any text of your paper, as

shown at the end of this paragraph and the preceding paragraph.] (Last Name, Year)

Footnotes Did you perhaps… Come here… Intending to ‘Pursue’ me? I see… So you are pursuing

me… I understand. So then, the lid of this jar, have you tried opening it? What I’m saying is… Simply looking

at that jar from the outside, you wouldn’t know for certain that what’s inside it is a ‘Fruit’, no…? Isn’t that

right? Though it certainly seems to be fragments of ‘Something’… But looking from the outside, those may be

potato fragments… or perhaps onion fragments… it may not look like an onion… but that definitely looks like

it could be a large mushroom! How can you be so definitive in saying that what’s inside that jar is a ‘Fruit’?

I’m explaining the fact that you ‘Opened’ the jar. Because you received that package, you opened the lid with

your hands, you ‘Smelled’ it. And it’s because it gave off the sweet and sour scent of a ‘Fruit’… that you came

into this room thinking it was a ‘Fruit’. You got all excited thinking ‘I’ve got an exclusive scoop here’, didn’t

you? And then… you perhaps got some fruit juice from the lid stuck to your finger. Just a little of it. Or

perhaps you were careless and licked that finger. If fate were particularly unlucky, there’s a rather good chance

that when you were putting the lid back on, some fruit juice seeped into a small cut on your skin or your

fingernail. Did you perhaps… Come here… Intending to ‘Pursue’ me? I see… So you are pursuing me… I

Note: [Place all tables for your paper in a tables section, following references (and, if applicable,

footnotes). Start a new page for each table, include a table number and table title for each, as

shown on this page. All explanatory text appears in a table note that follows the table, such as

this one. Use the Table/Figure style, available on the Home tab, in the Styles gallery, to get the

spacing between table and note. Tables in APA format can use single or 1.5 line spacing.
