Excellent. This will be a good paper to edit. I like that the APA style is mostly correct, and the APA issues I see are subtle. This will make it more of a challenge to find problems.

Are we primarily concerned with the references for this project? Or are we concerned with creating the title page, abstract, the line spacing (in other words, the whole nine yards)?
As a side note, what do you prefer we call you? Thanks!

I'm still finding APA format mistakes on this paper that others need to step in and fix. They are some minor issues, but that is the point of this assignment.
Sorry for the late reply Teresa, but it is just the APA format that we should be concerned with in this paper and I'm not that particular about what you call me.
After reading over the paper this late in the game, I see only a few in text citations that do NOT have page numbers. As I do not know the correct page numbers, I have placed # signs in there. It seems inconsistent there most citations have a pg number, and yet a few do not. After reading the tutorial I believe they all should; correct me if I am wrong. Just trying to do my part!
Correction, most of those were not direct quotes so they require no page numbers,correct?
My understanding is that, if it is a direct quote than the author, year of publication, and page number need to be referenced. However, if it is just an idea taken from a reference just the author and year of publication should be listed. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.
Yes, that is my understanding as well. I had to re-read your paper and see that some were direct quotes and some were not, hence the reason I removed them! Thenk you for your help with the matter!

There are still a few minor but important problems with this paper. I made these in bold on the paper.
