APA statistics reporter
Enter a test statistic and get the correctly formatted APA 7 result — with the p-value computed for you and the conventions authors routinely get wrong (no leading zero, exact p or p < .001, df in parentheses). Free, no sign-up.
Italicize the statistic symbols and p in your manuscript (APA italicises t, F, r, z, p, and N; not χ² or df). The p-value is two-sided and computed from your statistic. Report an effect size alongside it where you can.
Writing up your results?
Folio drafts with your own sources, checks every citation, and formats references in any style — so the whole results section comes together in one place.
Reporting statistics in APA 7
APA style has precise rules for inferential results: the test symbol is italicised, degrees of freedom go in parentheses, and the p-value is reported exactly to two or three decimals with no leading zero — or as p < .001 when it is very small. Small slips (a leading zero, p = .000, the wrong df) are common and easy for reviewers to catch.
Paste your statistic — from SPSS, R, JASP, or a hand calculation — and this tool builds the line for you. It computes the two-sided p-value from the statistic and its degrees of freedom, then formats everything to APA 7. Remember to add an effect size, which APA also expects.
Frequently asked
Is this APA statistics tool free?
Yes — completely free, with no sign-up. Everything runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
Which tests does it support?
The most commonly reported inferential tests: t-tests, F-tests (ANOVA, regression), Pearson correlations (r), chi-square (χ²), and z-tests. Enter the statistic and its degrees of freedom, and it computes the two-sided p-value and formats the result.
How should I report the p-value in APA?
APA 7 asks for an exact p to two or three decimals with no leading zero (e.g. p = .043), or p < .001 for very small values — never p = .000. This tool applies those rules automatically.
What should I italicise?
Italicise the test symbols and p — t, F, r, z, p, and N — but not χ² or df. Copy the result, then apply italics in your manuscript.
Should I also report an effect size?
Yes. APA 7 expects an effect size (e.g. Cohen’s d, η², or the correlation r itself) alongside the test. Report it next to the result this tool gives you.
