Karl Wuensch's Links to Internet Resources on APA-Style

• The Sixth Edition of the APA Publication Manual -- some changes I like, but much confusion.
• The Fifth Edition of the APA Publication Manual -- See what changes have been made since the fourth edition.  The sixth edition is out, and I am working on summarizing the changes in it.
• APA Statistical Abbreviations and Symbols -- an abbreviated list
• APA-Style Headings -- a guide to use of APA-style headings, updated for the sixth edition.
• Citing Articles Retrieved from an Electronic Database
• Sex/Gender/Whatever -- which word should I use, "sex" or "gender?"

Resources Elsewhere

• APA Publication Manual, Sixth Edition
  • Corrections to the first printing
  • Guidelines for reducing bias
  • Other supplemental materials
  • Sample papers
  • What is new in the sixth edition -- tutorial, would not go beyond the 7th slide for me.
• APA Style Guide to Electronic References -- restricted access (need ECU userid and password)
• APAStyle.org -- the APA's own page on APA style
• APA Style Resources -- links to a number of useful resources
• DOI Resolver -- enter the doi, get the associated web page
• DOI Retriever -- Just copy and paste your references into this utility, it returns them with the digital object identifier codes.
• Dr. Plonsky's APA Style Manual -- excellent, but I find it amusing that he uses the term "gender" when referring to the sex of nonhuman animals -- do nonhuman animals have a gender identity?
