...www.Grammarly.com/Grammar_Check Who Uses Each Format MLA style was created by the Modern Language Association and is used primarily for writings about language and literature and is the go-to style for those studying or working in the humanities. APA style is intended to clarify and strengthen scientific writing. Organized by the American Psychological Association, APA style is used most often by those in the social science fields. Format The difference between a paper written in MLA style and one written in APA style should be apparent to a reader almost immediately. A paper written in APA style will always have a title page, while those written in MLA style will only have a title page if it has been specifically requested. APA style also requires the inclusion of an abstract, a brief summary of the paper, while MLA does not. The main body of documents written in the two formats will look very similar, but they diverge again later on. In an MLA paper, the full list of references will be found on the "Works Cited" page at the back of the document. APA documents, on the other hand, will include a "References" page at the end. Citations While both styles require clear and detailed attribution of sources, referred to as citations, MLA and APA styles require a slightly different presentation of that data. In-text or parenthetical citations are brief references directing the reader to the full source list appended to the end of the paper. In MLA style, in-text citations will...

...One of the many factors that make us unique as individuals is the way we interrupt and process information. Daily we absorb information through reading, conversations and social media, Sometimes we subconsciously take ownership of others ideas; allowing what we take in to influence our thoughts and actions. Ultimately, this can lead to poor habits such as lying when it comes to being responsible for our actions. As college students, we are expected to challenge ourselves by writing good scholarly papers. Collecting our thoughts about our research and putting them on paper is easy for some but difficult for others. While researching, we can take notes and reflect on them; this can help with the content and flow in our papers (Kirszner & Stephen, 2012). Our papers should capture the reader’s attention by explaining our thesis statement and providing adequate explanations that supports our findings. Papers can be formatted and written in various ways; the most common forms of writing are APA and MLA. Some colleges may require MLA style (Modern Language Association); which is used for humanities such as arts, literature, and history. On the other hand, other colleges may require their students to write their papers in APA style. APA means American Psychological Association. It was designed by anthropologist, business managers, and psychologists as a way of arranging the components of writing and reading (Kirszner & Stephen, 2012). The APA format consist of the body, in-text...
