apa.cls LaTeX2e document class; version 1.3.4 of December, 2008
apa.cls is a LaTeX2e class file that makes your document conform to
the American Psychological Association (APA) Publication Manual (Fifth
Edition, 2001) specifications for manuscripts or to the APA journal
look found in journals like the Journal of Experimental Psychology.
In addition, it provides a regular LaTeX-like output with a few
enhancements and APA-motivated changes.
This is a document *class* which uses (and modifies) other packages to
achieve strictly defined formatting results and also uses the apacite
package (sty & bst) for citations and references. If you only want
APA-like citation for other kinds of documents use apacite.sty with
an appropriate class. In particular, apa.cls is *NOT* appropriate for
your thesis; don't even consider using it for that purpose.
In order to use this document class you need some packages that may
not be present in your LaTeX distribution. Please read apacls.txt
carefully to understand what you need to install and what is possible
with apa.cls, then read examples.txt carefully to understand how to
use apa.cls (macros and instructions). Check out apaexample.tex, a
minimal example file that produces actual manuscript-like output.
apa.cls is not in any way connected to, endorsed by, or probably known
at all at the American Psychological Association. APA does not even
accept manuscript submissions in LaTeX source. The author of apa.cls
has made every effort to achieve typesetting results conforming to
the APA manual, because he uses it for his manuscripts. However, he
is not responsible if the editor does not approve of a manuscript
typeset with apa.cls, if your computer blows up while processing your
manuscript with apa.cls, or for anything else that may go wrong with
apa.cls, or with anything else for that matter.
