• Chicago/Turabian: Headings

  • Chicago style puts forth specific rules for formatting headings (up to five levels) within your paper:
  • If a heading is said to be in title case, that means you should format it as though it were the title of a book, with the first letters of most major words capitalized (e.g., A Study of Color-Blindness in Dogs).
  • So, if you have a paper with two levels of headings, you would use Level 1 formatting for the higher level and Level 2 formatting for the lower level.
  • Similarly, if you have a paper with five levels of headings, you would use Level 1 formatting for the highest level and Level 5 formatting for the lowest level.
  • These are the formatting rules for different levels of headings in APA style.
