Shape Footnote Paper For Free

A footnote is indicated with a superscript numeral (like this1) within the text that corresponds to the same numeral at the bottom of the page, which is followed by the reference or additional information. The footnote should be included directly following the text it pertains to, usually after any punctuation.

Footnotes are stacked at the bottom of the page in the order their corresponding signals appear in the text. If footnotes are rare or inconsistent, they are usually denoted by an asterisk (*) or less commonly the dagger (?). However, if footnotes are frequent, as with academic writing, then sequential numbers are used.

When the use of a footnote is required, the footnote text should be concise, denoted with a superscript, and listed at the bottom of the page. Information that should be included in an APA footnote citation includes the name of the work, the work's author, and the work's publication year.

Footnotes page at the end of the paper The title of the page, ?Footnotes,? should be centered and bold. Indent the first line of each footnote and place a single space between the superscript number and the footnote text. Like most text in an APA format paper, footnotes at the end of the text should be double-spaced.
