Sample APA Style feedback bank comment:
- A new guideline of the 6th edition of APA style is the inclusion of DOI (digital object identifier) information with each entry in your reference list for which DOI information is available. The DOI provides readers with necessary information to track down the permanent link for each reference. For assistance in locating the DOI, see CrossRefs DOI search site at: http://www.crossref.org/guestquery/. If you would like more information on DOIs see: http://apastyle.org/learn/faqs/what-is-doi.aspx. For an example of how to include the DOI with your reference, see: http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/10/.

Sample feedback template:
- In this comparison, you effectively XXX. Key to this type of analysis, it is important that you XXX. As you likely noticed, not all studies clearly list each of the key factors for effectively analyzing the research (question, population, limitations, operational definitions, etc)… but as you become more familiar with reading empirical research, you will be able to draw conclusions not only about what is written, but also about what is NOT written. In many cases, the information that is left out of the research report can be just as telling as the information that the authors chose to include. To enhance your comparison paper, I would encourage you to XXX and XXX. In addition, you may want to take a look at the following examples to help guide your APA style writing: XXX.
