The APA Referencing Format
Any research paper demands the researcher to reference everything gotten form other works. The organization of your paper may depend on the preferences of your instructor. He could prefer the introduction-body-conclusion format or might instruct you on the way that you are going to organize your paper. An APA style research paper with apa citation reference would look like this and it also includes apa style research proposal:
Introduction
This is an overview of other opinion about the topic at hand. This is where most of your source citations go to and it follows apa referencing. It is also an overview of your plan in the paper and a statement of your hypothesis.
The Methods
This should enumerate every material that will be involved in the experiment as well as research instruments.
The Outcome
These are the results of the research process. They are without analysis.

The Wrap Up/Conclusion
This involves anything deduced from the research, recommendations as to how it will be done differently, especially if anything interfered in the way the research was conducted.

Any graphic that is too big to be included in the text can be put at the tail end, like in the appendix. This demands you to mention it by name in the body text of your paper e.g. As shown in appendix 1…
