In the third episode of this four-part series, Chelsea Lee, instructional lead, and Timothy McAdoo, manager, both of APA Style, discuss how APA Style goes beyond referencing. First, Chelsea reviews the bias-free language chapter in the 7th edition of the Publication Manual, and how it has expanded to include guidance on socioeconomic status and intersectionality. Next, she provides an overview of recommendations for visuals like graphs, charts, and figures, and underscores the need to properly label all graphics. She also explores the key elements of accessible design and highlights APA Style’s goal to make its products “born accessible.” Last, Tim debunks one longstanding myth—yes, you can use first person in academic writing!
