SHORTENED TITLE

171. If citing a direct quote, “the citation must have author name, publication year, and page

number(s)” (Judge, 2011, p. 343). Please take note of the placement of the period after the

citation. Also, if the quote is 40 words or more, follow the rules for block quotes. When

paraphrasing, only cite the author and publication date (Judge, 2011). Be sure when

paraphrasing, that you are actually paraphrasing and not mostly quoting; this would be

considered plagiarism if caught.

Next Heading

Continue paper. Particularly in short papers, headings are not usually required. If

purchase the APA 6

edition manual and you follow these simple APA rules, you will always

earn full APA points on assignments requiring APA, write better, and completely impress

your professors, maybe even enough to earn an A because your classmates probably didn’t

follow APA.
