For this assignment you will find three peer-reviewed journal articles related to any criminal justice or social science related research topic that interests you and create an APA formatted reference page.
All three references must be properly cited in APA format (7th Edition). For each source include the following in your reference page:
- Authors’ names and initials, publication year, article title, journal name, volume number, issue number (if applicable), page numbers, and doi (if available).
Please format the assignment as follows:
- Double spaced
- One inch margins
- 12 point Times New Roman font
- Left alignment; not justified
Please make sure to include your name within your assignment and save the Word file as YourLastName Reference Page (for example, I would name my file Hyman Gregory Reference Page).
NOTE – I do not recommend using the Auto Reference Tool in Word or any websites that claim to put your references in APA format for you. Many times they provide incorrect information. It is always better to type the full reference yourself to ensure it is formatted correctly. Points will be deducted for errors in APA formatting as well as including sources that are not scholarly journal articles or that have not been subject to peer review.
