Product Description
The Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, Seventh Edition, in hardcover, is the official source for APA Style, the citation and formatting system required in psychology, nursing, education, social sciences, and many business programs.
APA Style governs how papers are structured, how sources are cited, and how tables, figures, and language are handled in scholarly writing. The seventh edition, published by the American Psychological Association (APA), is a full-color revision with a dedicated chapter for students, a new chapter on journal article reporting standards, and updated bias-free language guidelines. It covers the whole writing process, from authorship ethics to submitting a manuscript.
What’s included
- Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, Seventh Edition

- Student-focused chapter with sample student and professional papers
- More than 100 reference examples covering books, journals, websites, social media, and legal sources

- ISBN-13 9781433832154
Who it’s for
Undergraduate and graduate students writing papers in APA format, nursing students completing evidence-based practice assignments, doctoral candidates preparing dissertations, faculty, journal editors, and professional writers in the behavioral and social sciences. Writing centers and libraries also keep the hardcover as a reference copy.
Why this edition
The seventh edition is the current APA Style standard and the one instructors grade against. It simplified in-text citations, dropped the publisher location from references, allowed more font choices, and added guidance for annotated bibliographies and response papers. The hardcover is the most durable of the four formats and sits flat on a desk, which helps when you are checking reference formats for a long paper.
Frequently asked questions
Is APA 7th edition still the current version of APA Style?
Yes. The seventh edition, released in 2019, remains the current edition of the Publication Manual and the basis for APA Style guidance.
What is the difference between the hardcover, paperback, and spiral versions?
The content is identical in all formats. The hardcover is the sturdiest, the paperback is lightest, and the spiral-bound version adds tabbed sections and lays flat.
Does the manual cover student papers or only journal articles?
Both. The seventh edition added a chapter on student paper elements, including a sample student paper and title page format.
