Full Title of Paper Exactly As It Appears on Title Page
Your paper should start with an introduction. Use the active voice rather than the passive
voice in your writing. This paper is set up in the paper format selected by Davenport University,
the APA (American Psychological Association) 6th edition style, so you can erase the text and
put in your own text. Your paper should be typed, double-spaced on standard-sized paper (8.5" x
11") with 1" margins on all sides. Use a clear font that is highly readable; APA recommends
using 12 pt. Times New Roman font. Paragraphs should be indented 5-7 spaces. Include a page
header (also known as the "running head") at the top left of every page. The running head is a
shortened version of your paper's title and cannot exceed 50 characters including spacing and
punctuation. It is identified and labeled “Running head” on the title page only. Page numbers
should be included on each page (including the title page) by themselves at the top right hand
corner of the page.
This template is bare bones. For more information consult the APA Style website at
