Example of the Full Sentence Outline Structure:

Thesis Statement:

Question(s)/Issues Begin Addressed:

I. Man-made pollution is the primary cause of global warming.

A. Greenhouse gas emissions are widely identified by the scientific community to be harmful (Smith, 2014).

Full sentence outlines are often accompanied with an APA reference list on a separate page. Quotes within the outline must also utilize in-text citations in current APA format.
