Here's the correct order for an APA paper:
1. Title Page: Includes the paper title, your name, and institutional affiliation.
2. Abstract: A concise summary of your paper (typically 150-250 words).
3. Body of the Paper: This includes your introduction, literature review, methods, results, and discussion sections.
4. References: A list of all sources cited in your paper.
5. Appendices (if applicable): Supplementary materials not directly included in the main body of the paper.
Therefore, the abstract should appear immediately after the title page.
