American Psychological Association (APA) has created a set of publication guidelines known as “APA style.” This document provides rules for writing and publishing research materials. This style is used primarily within the field of social sciences. Why Should I Use APA? APA provides standard guidelines for all research papers, reports, and essays. NSU students are expected to follow accurate APA rules when completing writing assignments. APA ensures that sources are properly cited, helping to avoid plagiarism. Where Can I Find More Information? Further information may be found in the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association [APA Manual]. Copies of this manual may be found in the university library or online at: www.apastyle.org Students may also wish to check the following websites for information on APA: http://owl.english.purdue.edu http://www.dianahacker.com/resdoc 2 APA Manual Table of Contents I.

Remember to introduce tables with a brief statement that tells the reader what to look for. Highlight the most important information, but do not repeat specific facts or statistics that will be evident to the reader. Tables [APA—pp. 128-150; 151; 230] are documents that organize numerical data into columns and rows. Table 4 Figures [APA—pp. 150-167; 230] include all other types of visual illustrations, photographs, charts, graphs, diagrams, and drawings. (2) Guidelines for Inserting Tables and Figures Number of Sales of XYZ Jeans at ABC Company during the first four months of 2005. Note. The values represented are actual sales statistics.

For example, “Flowchart for including figures in a document.” Refer to a table or figure by its number. For example, “as shown in Figure 3” or “see Table 2.” APA Manual 9 II. In-Text Citations Internal (in-text) citation identifies the source of information. It is used to give credit to authors whose ideas or thoughts are used within the academic paper. Internal citations allow the reader to identify the source and find the borrowed information within it. 1. Plagiarism [APA—pp. 15-16] Plagiarism is the improper use of another person’s words or ideas. Plagiarism includes quoting someone’s words without giving them credit, stealing someone’s idea, and paying someone to write your paper. Regardless of whether the plagiarism is intentional or not, it is a serious academic offense. In order to avoid plagiarism, cite all sources used in research. Sources May Include the Following: Books Magazines / journals / newspaper articles Database articles Films Television programs Radio documentaries Websites Blogs Internet bulletin boards / forums E-mails Encyclopedias Personal Communications 2. Paraphrasing [APA—pp. 170-174] Paraphrasing is stating the original material in your own words. Changing a few words in an otherwise untouched quote does not constitute paraphrasing. In order to paraphrase effectively, the information must be re-stated in a new way. Therefore, successful paraphrasing occurs when you are able to maintain the intended meaning of the original source without copying the words or sentence structure. Tip: Read the information to be paraphrased, then close the book/ turn off the computer. Make sure you understood the information; then, restate it in your own words. Go back and check for accuracy. Doing this helps prevent you from copying words or sentence structure, which may constitute plagiarism. 10 APA Manual Example: Read the original passage below and compare it with the paraphrased versions. Original Passage “Adult learning research helps to explain why immersion is so important” (Hewett & Ehmann, 2004, p. 11). Unacceptable Paraphrasing Research in adult learning assists us in explaining why immersion is so important. Acceptable Paraphrasing According to Hewett and Ehmann (2004), current research gives insight into why immersion is a valuable aspect of adult learning. Paraphrases must be cited with the name of the author and the year of publication of the original source. Citing the page number is optional. Current research provides insight into why immersion is a valuable aspect of adult learning (Hewett & Ehmann, 2004).
