APA Formatting and Style Guide

APA (stands for American Psychologocal Association) is one of the most commonly used to cite references, particularly in social sciences. A comprehensive APA formatting and style guide could be found in the following link. APA Formatting and Style Guide The guide has been published by Purdue University Online Writing Lab (OWL). In this guide I have found good examples of the general format of APA research papers, in text citations, endnotes/footnotes and the reference page. This guide has been revised according to the 6th edition of the APA manual. To learn more about APA style you can visit it's website at http://www.apastyle.org/
