LinkedIn Guide: 🖋️ APA 7: Mastering Compound Adjectives 🧠 Did you know APA 7 changed how we format certain compound adjectives? Here's a quick guide: 📌 Use an en dash (–) for compound adjectives where one element is a compound term or phrase. Example: evidence–based practice ❌ Old way (APA 6): evidence-based practice ✅ New way (APA 7): evidence–based practice Why? The en dash shows a more complex relationship between terms. 🧐Other examples: Cognitive–behavioral therapy Mixed–methods research Theory–practice gap 💡 Pro Tip: Type an en dash by holding Alt + 0150 on the numeric keypad.
