[Repeat title on first page of text; See APA, 2.4, 2.27 Table 2.1, Figure 2.4]
Your paper will benefit from a stronger introduction. The introduction provides you with an opportunity to capture your reader’s attention by indicating what the paper will be about and how you will be describing something or arguing a point. Begin your introduction with an attention grabber i.e., summary information, anecdote, or startling information. If the attention grabber is only a sentence or two, add one or two more sentences that will lead the reader from your opening to your thesis statement. Usually, a statement at the end of your introductory paragraph delineates your thesis, such as: This paper is about/will show (add your paper’s main points); will suffice]
[Level 1 Headings need to be Centered (Do not underline or italicize) (See APA, p. 113)] [Do not to use excessive bullet points or numbering in your papers, rather focus on explaining each point in paragraph form.] There are five levels of heading in APA Style. Level 1 is the highest or main level of heading, Level 2 is a subheading of Level 1, Level 3 is a subheading of Level 2, and so on through Levels 4 and 5.
The number of headings to use in a paper depends on the length and complexity of the work.
If two levels of heading are needed, use Levels 1 and 2. If three levels of heading are needed, use Levels 1, 2, and 3 (and so on). If only one level of heading is needed, use Level 1.
Use only the number of headings necessary to differentiate distinct sections in your paper; short student papers may not require any headings. Furthermore, avoid these common errors related to headings
