APA 7th Edition does not require paper headers. Use these directions only if your instructor chooses to deviate from APA 7 requirements.

To create a different header on page 2 from the one on page 1 for APA 6th edition style in Microsoft Word 2010:

  1. Double click at the top of the page to open the header
  2. In the Header & Footer Design Toolbar, in the Options section, click the box for Different First Page so that you can still include the words Running head on the first page, but take them off all subsequent pages.
