Pages after the title page must include the page number on the header line/right justified. Also, the first content page after the title page (does not include abstract page) must contain the paper title, center justified – bold type. The title is only included on the first content page. I would suggest reviewing the proper APA format, which can be found at: http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/01/ Title page in APA format (Times New Roman, 12 font only) The below areas are the required subheadings that must be included within your paper.
