Formatting is also an important part of APA style. The reference list should be double-spaced, with entries arranged alphabetically by the first author’s surname. Each entry uses a hanging indent, where the first line is flush left and subsequent lines are indented.

Regarding font and spacing, APA allows several options to ensure readability: Times New Roman (12 pt), Arial (11 pt), and Calibri (11 pt) are acceptable. The entire paper, including title page, body text, and reference list, must be double-spaced with 1-inch margins on all sides.
