I never used to indent paras but just put the double space...but yest I gave my first draft of my lit review to my supervisor (new Uni) and she told me to indent the paras. I still personally prefer the double space, but Oh well...I am interested to see what others say as well. Thank you for this
Yeah, my sup indents mine for me when she edits, but its annoying me - I'd rather double space, but I want it to be 'right'.
Hi sneaks,
I think she does it because that's how people used to write before word processors - I reckon that it looks nicer with clear breaks. We do have to follow APA format though so I'll check that.
it may be she's going on APA format version 1 (circa 1805 or something) and the updated one is different (?)
