Revisiting APA Title & Header

• Running Head
• The running head is a shortened version of the paper’s full title, and it is used to help readers identify the titles for published articles.

​

• However, even if your paper is not intended for publication, it should still have a running head.

​

• Page numbers should be on top right.
