    I really did not mean to get you all "reinvigorated," or anything like that. Rather, I left out the main URL that I wanted to list, namely, http://www.apastyle.org. It offers a whole manual of style for APA publications, as updated in 2002. But I had previously received a shorter style guide that summarized APA style considerations. I tried to find an online version for Keith, but got distracted by those other URLs dealing more with substance than style. All 3 URLs may be useful to people doing psychological research and journal publication.
