I can't thank you enough for teaching me how to insert a table of contents. I am working on my graduation project and I needed to watch this video more than anything else. Stay blessed, man. Cheers!
Thank you, this is not addressed in APA and this is the first place I found a concise, understandable explanation. APA should link to the URL of this video :)
Thank you for putting together a great video with accurate information on this topic. This was better than any other resource I found in regards to this topic.
HECTOR!!!!!!! THIS WAY THE BEST TUTORIAL! BY FAR THE BEST HERE ON YOU TUBE! YOU DESERVE A NOBEL PEACE PRIZE FOR THIS! AND POSSIBLY YOUR FACE ON SOME MONEY!!👍👍👍🎆🎆🎆
this was wildly informative. I am getting my master's and the things I did not know Word, Excel, and PP can do before entering this program. Thanks for the info! Also - Hey Liberty!! I am in Greensboro, not too far away and my bother went there.
@Hector Nunez: This is outstanding! I looked at just a few other explanations, and found that this is the easiest one to follow, mainly because you included very important content. Much appreciation. GO E
Thnx for sharing such an informative video...I face a pblm when after making table of content..I make the new table for list of figures..the previous table also gets mixed and pasted on the document..hope u got my point
I believe you should be able to use the 'save as' feature, name the file, and select PDF from the dropdown menu directly below the area you typed in the name.
I hope you guys know that there are Word templates named APA that will give you those headings automatically for you. It will even create you a Table of Contents and a References section. If you want to customize that APA template to your own liking, you can ¨Save As¨ Word Template, with an extension ".dotx" instead of ".docx". It will save the template in a folder named "Custom Office Templates" in your "Documents" folder. Now, you can use your own personalized Apa template for all your professional Word documents.
Ruben, you are correct in that there are templates out there. Make sure that each of the predefined styles follow the expected format. At time, there will be additional spacing in between paragraphs that shouldn't bet there. Best of luck!
Please help.... How do you change the page number to start on a different page, like if this was for a dissertation or something was several pages that need to be unnumbered before the table of contents
Hi, thanks for your helpful illustrated instruction. It has helped me a lot. However, the page numbers in the content list does not match the content pages in the text after double spacing my text. What can I do?
Thank you for the feedback. If you right click on the table of contents, you'll have the option to update the page numbers only or to update all fields. If you haven't updated any headings, you should just be able to select the page numbers option and be okay. Make sure to save the file first in case updating the TOC causes some type of unusual behavior. Hope this helps!
This is very helpful! I'm just wondering what I'm doing wrong. Whenever I generate my table, it doesn't automatically generate a nice table of contents like yours, it actually has full paragraphs from my paper in the table! I went through and selected headers one and two, made sure that the paragraphs in the essay are not listed as headers, and still no luck. Any idea where I'm going wrong? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!!
Alyssa. I've had this happen before. Make sure your paragraphs are not selected to a heading style. Only the paragraph heading should be in this style. Paragraphs are typically in normal style. You can modify the normal style to match APA paragraph settings.
I have a question. Say, your table of contents is several pages long, is there any APA rules that regulate the length of the table? I would assume that single spacing would look better, but I do not know if that is following APA standard.
Ruben, your are correct regarding the Table of Contents. APA focuses more on spacing, font, font size, margins, etc. With that said, definitely check with your school. Also, make sure to find out which levels (i.e. 1, 2, 3, etc.,) they would like you to include. Best of luck!
how do i remove PAGE NUMBERS in every CHAPTER? (or it is possible to do that?) here is the sample: CHAPTER 1 (i don't want to put a page number) then the next page there is. (until the end of chapter 1) then in chpter 2 i don't want to put a page number again (and soon on) can i do that? i'm using MS WORD (2013)

Thank you. This was very clear and very helpful!
My savior, finally something I can understand 😭
Thanks for the tutorial. Easy presentation.
. A table of contents is like a roadmap of your paper. It should contain all the headings in the body, worded exactly as they appear within
The "running head" in the header is an instruction to the type setter. The heading should be bold. Verbs in citations are in past tense (posited).
Thank you, it was very useful I made my table of content in few minutes
This was very helpful. Thank you
This was AWESOME!

Outstanding sir. Thank you!
Thank you. God bless. Just asking, would the Abstract go before the Table of contents and not be part of TOC or it can go after TOC?
Thank you.
thank you very much you have made this clear for me. Do you have a video on how to convert this into PDF?
I believe you should be able to use the 'save as' feature, name the file, and select PDF from the dropdown menu directly below the area you typed in the name.

Please help.... How do you change the page number to start on a different page, like if this was for a dissertation or something was several pages that need to be unnumbered before the table of contents

Thank you for this reference

@Hector Nunez Thank You, Thank You. Can you recheck these and verify is there anything that change due to the APA 7 upgrade?
Curious what page in the APA style manual covers the TOC.
TankerKC, it's really up to your professor or school. APA is silent on the matter. This video was originally intended to help one of my classes.
I have a question. Say, your table of contents is several pages long, is there any APA rules that regulate the length of the table? I would assume that single spacing would look better, but I do not know if that is following APA standard.
Nevermind, I found out that APA does not have rules for table of contents and it is depending on your university.
Ruben, your are correct regarding the Table of Contents. APA focuses more on spacing, font, font size, margins, etc. With that said, definitely check with your school. Also, make sure to find out which levels (i.e. 1, 2, 3, etc.,) they would like you to include. Best of luck!
