When writing a literature review in APA style, the title page should include the title of the paper, the author's name, affiliation information and an author's note. The title should be centered in the upper half of the page and should be in bold and capitalized font. The title should include any subtitle,s which should be separated by a colon. Immediately beneath the title, type the name of the author, with each word capitalized. Below the author's name, type the institutional affiliation, which should state the location, address and department. Finally, you may include an author's note that provides details about the author's credentials and contributions to the work.
The title page should also include a running head, which is a shortened version of the title. On the next line, type the title in all capital letters, followed by a page number, which should be flush right. On all subsequent pages, the running head and page number should appear in the upper right corner of the page. This page should also include a page header on every page, which should appear flush left and should be capitalized, with the leftmost letter of each word being in upper case.
In summary, the title page of a literature review in APA style should include the title of the paper, the author's name and affiliation information, the running head, page number, page header and an author's note (if needed). Following these guidelines will ensure that your literature review looks neat, organized and professional.
