aerj-writing-style

Use when drafting or polishing the prose of an American Educational Research Journal (AERJ) manuscript. AERJ is read across the whole field, follows APA 7th-edition style, and expects a 100–120-word abstract within a maximum 50-page manuscript. Improves clarity and compliance; it does not ghostwrite the paper.

# Writing Style (aerj-writing-style)

An AERJ paper must read for the **whole field of education research**, not just specialists, and must
comply with **APA 7th edition**. Write so a researcher from another subfield follows the argument, the
stakes, and the contribution. Verify the current length and abstract limits on the official page.

## When to trigger

- Drafting or tightening any section
- Bringing the manuscript into APA 7th-edition compliance
- Writing or trimming the **100–120-word abstract**
- Cutting to fit the length limit while protecting the argument

## Style facts (verify volatile items on the official page)
