How to Format a List Using APA

By Society & Culture & Entertainment Last updated Thursday, June/06/2024

1). Leave one blank line between your last line of text and the first line of your list.
2). Indent two spaces on the first (and every succeeding) item in your list.
3). Use numerals starting with "1" for a numbered list. Use bullet points for non-numbered lists. Use the numeral followed by a period then a space before capitalizing the first letter of your list. In a non-numbered list, place one space after the bullet also.
4). Indent the second line of a list item one tab beyond the number or bullet, and every succeeding line after that within the same list item.
5). Place the next list item on the next line down.
6). Leave one blank line at the conclusion of your list before beginning your text again with an indented paragraph.
