of the topic and the strength of the pro and con arguments. This is where your
own thoughts reign supreme. Where do you stand after conducting research on the
topic? Did your opinions change over the course of the research? While you dont
necessarily need to refer to research here, supporting your opinion with credible
sources (proving you have made an informed opinion) is best.
VII. References In APA 7 format I would suggest simply making section VII a
separate References page (as I have done here). That way, the references page is
ready for your final paper with no editing required.

References
List at least three solid sources for your paper. All sources should have been published with the
past five years. At least one reference must be a peer-reviewed article from a professional
journal. All sources must be credible and academic (I am available if you want to ask
about any source). Put the references in APA 7 format. I have set up the hanging indent
here for you.
