Taylor (2008) noted important principles about academic writing:

Vigorous writ ing is concise. A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary l ines and a machine no unnecessary parts. This requires not that the writer make

al l his sentences short , or that he or she should avoid all detail and

treat his subjects only in outl ine, but that every word tel l . (p. 120)

Page 16: 2010 apa guidelinesppt

Allows the writer to use ideas and opinions of others.

Each time an author is paraphrased, the source must be cited in the text.

Page or paragraph numbers are not required. Such as: (Evans, 2005)

Page 17: 2010 apa guidelinesppt

More than half of patients with cancer suffer from pain. The inadequate preparation of health professionals regarding how to assess and manage pain has had a major impact on patients’ suffering (Evans, 2005).

Page 18: 2010 apa guidelinesppt

Choose the source as you write Write using your own words but not any of your

ideas Use a correct citation immediately after the

paraphrase or summary Use a correct reference at the end of the paper

Page 19: 2010 apa guidelinesppt

References are listed on separate page Only citations that appear in the text should appear on

the reference page Everything cited in the text should appear on the

reference page. References are double-spaced, flush left with

subsequent lines indented 5 spaces

Page 20: 2010 apa guidelinesppt

The Reference List

Put references in order by the author’s surname, or f irst author’s surname if there is more than one author.
