Note: SD= strongly disagree; D=disagree; U=undecided; A=agree; SA=strongly agree (Notes should be double spaced)
Correct Use of HyphenationThe most important principle for writing temporary compounds, such as non-vulnerable, best-selling, is to use hyphens to prevent misreading.
Words with prefixes and suffixes are written without hyphens according to APA rules. (ex. covariate, preexisting)
Correct Use of Numbers
When using numbers from 0-9 in your manuscript, spell these numbers out in letters. If you are using numbers 10 or higher, use digits to write them on your manuscript, but there are some exceptions:
Do not use numerals at the beginning of the sentence.
Common fractions, such as ¼ or ½ should be spelled out.
For other fractions, functions, percentages, etc., use numerals in your manuscript.
Important Punctuation Rules
If you use decimals, use full stop.
Do not use any bullet-points on your manuscript.
Abbreviations
Unless the abbreviations that you aim to use are common, such as, e.g., AIDS or IQ, the abbreviations should be written with their full definitions right next to them in the first use.
Here are some common abbreviations:
c.f.; compare
e.g.; for example
etc.; and so forth
i.e.; that is
viz.; namely
vs.; versus or against
et al.; and others
Note; ibid. (idibem, the same place) cannot be used in APA.
METHODOLOGY
This section of the manuscript should be about the techniques and methods you used in your study. Here are some questions that can help you form your methodology.
How did you collect the data, or how did you generate the data?
Which research methods did you use?
Why did you choose these methods and techniques?
How did you use these methods for analyzing the research question or problem?
In addition to these, add details of the ethics committee in the methodology.
CITATION RULES
Please use APA 7th edition (American Psychological Association, 2020) for in-text and end-text citations. This section of the document aims to explain and remind the authors of some of the rules of APA style citation. For more information, you can check the website provided below;
https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines
In-text Citations
There are two types of in-text citation: paraphrasing and quoting.
When you paraphrase some other researchers’ studies, use the styles below:
According to Jones (1998), APA style is a difficult citation format for first-time learners. APA style is a difficult citation format for first-time learners (Jones, 1998).
If there is more than one author to cite, use the format below:
Research by Cebesoy and Yeniterzi (2016) supports...
Research findings indicated that … (Cebesoy & Yeniterzi, 2016)
If the citation has 3 or more authors, write the first author’s last name followed by “et al.” in the first mention in signal phrase or in parentheses.;
The study by Aykutlu et al. (2021) shows that...
(Aykutlu et al., 2021)
There are some rules you must follow when citing using paraphrasing.
If there are two studies in your paper, both of which abbreviate to the same et al. form, add as many surnames as needed to disambiguate.
If there are multiple references in your paper with the same author(s) and publication dates, append letters to the years.
If there are multiple studies in your paper with the first authors with the same name but have different initials, add initials next to the authors’ name in the in-text citations.
Direct quotation is used when duplicating an exact definition, when the author has said something memorable, or when you want to respond to the exact wording. The quotation should be a maximum of 40 words.
“The decline of American marriage has been a favorite theme of social commentators, politicians, and academics over the past few decades” (Cherlin, 2005, p. 34).
If the quotation has 40 words or more, it is written in block quotation format. Here’s what you need to know about block quotation;
Block quotations start with a new line.
Quotation marks do not surround them.
The entire quotation, just like in a new paragraph, should be indented 1.27 cm (0.5 inch) and the spacing must be 1.5.
The text after the quotation starts with new line, separated from the quotation.
The example of block quotation with a parenthetical citation:
Researchers have studied how people talk to themselves:
Inner speech is a paradoxical phenomenon. It is an experience that is central to many people’s everyday lives, and yet it presents considerable challenges to any effort to study it scientifically. Nevertheless, a wide range of methodologies and approaches have combined to shed light on the subjective experience of inner speech and its cognitive and neural underpinnings. (Alderson-Day & Fernyhough, 2015, p. 957)
The example of block quotation with narrative citation:
Flores et al. (2018) described how they addressed potential researcher bias when working with an intersectional community of transgender people of color:
Everyone on the research team belonged to a stigmatized group but also held privileged identities. Throughout the research process, we attended to the ways in which our privileged and oppressed identities may have influenced the research process, findings, and presentation of results. (p. 311)
Note; When citing a picture or a figure, write its citation under or on the top of the cited material. If that is not possible, then make sure you have written the citation in the next page.
End-Text Citations
Every reference on the reference list must be cited in the text, and every cited reference should appear on the reference list.
Each research material has a different way of writing an end-text reference. Here are some examples of how to write each research material.
