How do I put my data in table form into my paper in APA style?

Answer

According to the American Psychological Association (n.d.) "Tables are visual displays composed of columns and rows in which numbers, text, or a combination of numbers and text are presented" (para. 1). Tables can be used to help your readers better understand, and compare and contrast data. 

Visit the Table Setup page on the APA Style website for information regarding how to create a table and add it into your paper.
