Student papers do not need a running head! They did in older editions of APA Style, but the 7th Edition removed that requirement for students. Professional papers (like those being submitted for publication) do need a running head. But the average high school or college student paper does not need one anymore.

@majorpayne7909 4 года назад

Thanks for the video and explanation on the running head I was about to put it in my paper until I saw the video

@cherierose356 4 года назад

Hi! What about word count? My prof told me to include it in my last reports feedback, but I'm not sure where to put it? Currently I'm working on an extended report. Thank you for all the other help :)

@APAStylebySam 4 года назад

I'd put that on the title page, on its own line below the other information.

@bangtanwings4854 3 года назад

Oh? I though it did. Thank you so much for this video.

@r.b.e.E 3 года назад

Does this apply for graduate students too? Or is a running head required

In all my life I don't think I have encountered such an aggravating writing format.

It gets easier as you get used to it. I remember the first time, I practically pulled my hair out.

I actually prefer APA. Chicago format is also okay, but I really don't like MLA (probably because I've rarely used it)

Thank you for this video. I am 53 years old and doing some courses. I was relying on my kids for help. One day on the last day of submission they refused to help me .I cried a lot and decided i will never ask for help from them. I submittted my assignment late but i did it myself after seeing your videos.

@Paulakayeplayful 3 года назад

I have a suggestion, maybe there should be either a couple of lessons on APA 7 or a whole term teaching it instead of professors assume we know how to write the blasted thing.

@Tavayneparkins 2 года назад

Yes I'm in school now and first class already assumes I know it

@wewhoareabouttodiesaluteyo9303 2 года назад

There is a class on it depending on the university. The problem is when the American Psychological Association decides to change the format. You kind of just have to miss points on it on one assignment and learn from it.

@daniellareyes8555 3 месяца назад

I could not agree more they teach us MLA in English but then just expect us to know APA. They are in need of an APA course everywhere.

Thank you for posting the APA formatting which was a problem that I was having. Thanks to your video I was able to see how it is supposed to be done and now I know how to set up for the APA style of writing. Everything that I saw is a help to me because now it will be done correctly. Sometimes seeing examples will be of help and I know it helped me. Thank you for doing this video.

@yasminvilla143 3 года назад

This helped. I did a paragraph for the abstract page and shaking my head, with this RU-vid video, it made me realize I didn't need it so I'm rewriting it to make it my conclusion paragraph.

Thank you Sam. I am in my second year in college in my second degree after retiring from nursing for 22 years! I have come to this video for all my papers. I continue to return to it. I now play it on double speed on account I have watched it so many times and usually need a quick review. So, again, thanks. :)
