Assignment #4: APA Formatting

Upload your assignment to canvas. Please be sure to upload the document with your answers in it. Double check your submission, accidently submitting a blank assignment is not a valid excuse. Please write your responses in a different color than black (any color is fine!).

Below is a paragraph with a few APA style errors in it. Your job is to try to spot as many errors as you can!

Akbulut et all, (2008) look at how common e-dishonesty is among Turkish university students and determine the causes behind it. The impact of peer pressure emphasizes the necessity of a supportive peer environment that encourages moral behavior, rather than academic misconduct (Gonzalez and others, 2010). The significance of comprehending student attitudes and motivations about e-dishonesty is emphasized by this factor analysis study. In short, students are more likely to cheat if they believe their peers are cheating as well (Johnson, Beckett, and Roselyn, 2022). As outlined by Smith and Thomas, 2014, policymakers and administrators may identify common types of academic dishonesty and create focused policies and programs that effectively address this issue.

Find at least three APA style errors in the paragraph above, and provide a correction for that error.

1. Error 1:

i.Correction:

1. Error 2:

i.Correction:

1. Error 3:

i.Correction:

2. Now, create an APA style reference (like you would write in a reference page) for the article you read in your assignment # 3 (Manipulations of Emotional Context Shape Moral Judgment) Note that the DOI is not printed on the version of the article that you read, but the correct doi for that article is:

• Correct the following three references type in the correct format below each incorrect reference. Please write your corrected reference in a different color than black (any color is fine!).

MacGregor, J., Stuebs, M. (May, 2012). To Cheat Or Not To Cheat: Rationalizing Academic Impropriety. accounting education, 21(issue:3), 265287.

4. Lets say you wanted to cite the Goldstein article from question 3 above. Pretend that you wrote the following sentence about the paper, now give me the correct parenthetical in-text citation for this journal article (remember, parenthetical references go at the end of the sentence in parentheses)

5. Now, lets say you wanted to cite the MacGregor article from question 3 above. Pretend that you wrote the following sentence about the paper, now give me the correct in-text citation within the sentence (not a parenthetical reference, write the reference in the actual sentence. You may edit the sentence accordingly).

Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) can cause people to experience undesirable feelings

6. Now, pretend that you were including the following direct quote from a research paper by Alison M. Mayfield, Samantha S. Strickland, and Parker Frances in 2016. The journal article is titled, Alcohol expectancies and predicted drinking behavior, and you found the quote on page 203.

Subjects were told that the experiment was about alcohol’s influence on preferred learning modes (visual and verbal)

7. Create a reference page for the three references you corrected in question 3. Imagine that they are the only three articles that you cited in your paper. Make sure you include the corrected version of the references.
