the essential content of the paper.
At end of a sentence
Tunon (2006) found that “instructors may or may not want to require an abstract for class
assignments” (p. 34). Use a colon if there
is a complete
Block quote introductory phrase.
Students at Nova Southeastern University have faced challenges in learning how to
use APA formatting. When discussing the challenges, Tunon (2006) found the following:
Use quotes around an article title or book chapter, but italicize the title of a book,
journal, … or report when used in the body of the paper. Use a shot [sic] title
in the parenthetical citation or complete title if the title is short. NOTE Non-periodical
titles like books and book titles have all the important words capitalized in the text
citations, but these same book titles do not have all the important words capitalized
in the reference list. (p. 342)

47. Paraphrasing
• To avoid plagiarizing, express other
people’s ideas, theories, and research in
your own words.
• You still must give credit to the author(s) by
citing the source using author-date of
publication method.
• Self-plagiarism.

86. Considerations for Selecting an Editor:
• The university does not assume responsibility
for a student's contractual agreement with a
private editor or typist or for the quality of
the editor's or typist's work.
• Fully communicate with editor about the
services included, turn-around time, and
costs.
• Don’t send your only copy of manuscript to
the editor.
