What is the correct font style for APA format?

The APA style guide doesn't specify one single font style. Instead, it recommends using a serif font for the main text and a sans-serif font for headings.

Here are the most common choices:

* Serif font:

* Times New Roman (the most common choice)

* Cambria (a good alternative, often considered more readable)

* Sans-serif font:

* Arial

* Calibri

Key Recommendations:

* Use a 12-point font size for the main text.

* Use a font size that is 2 points larger for headings. (e.g., 14 points for Level 1 headings, 16 points for Level 2 headings).

* Avoid using all-caps or underlining for headings.

Important Note: The specific font recommendations are for the final document submission. You may use a different font for drafting, but make sure to convert it to the appropriate style before submitting.
