The psychosocial aspects of case-management needs are learned from on-the-job-training and through classes such as the Case Management Society of America's (CMSA) Integrated Case Management Training program. One of the skills taught in this class is the mastery of performing systematic complex assessments that include physical, behavioral, and psychosocial assessments. The class, Concepts of Case Management, offered by American Sentinel University (ASU) is described in part as clinical information gathering, processing and recording”

Check the website at Purdue I think it's called OWL. Best APA resource on the web.

Thank you, I did, it doesn't address this particular structure. Then it says if what you are looking for isn't here , use the closest format to what you are using, but there doesn't be anything like that either.

The OWL site on Purdue is what I would suggest also. Depending on when the assignment is due, is there a writing lab at your school that you could go to that might be able to help?

So I busted out my old APA book (it's 5th edition) - I clearly am procrastinating studying for my pharmacology exam. Closest I could find is this.

Use italics for: titles of books, periodicals, and microfilm publications; genera, species and varieties; introduction of a new, technical, ot key term or label; letter, word or phrase cited as linguistic example; words that could be misread; letter used as statistical symbols or algebraic variables; some test scores and values; anchors of a scale.

So I would say that your situation most resembles a title of a book, periodical, or publication. That'd be my best guess.

Guess my first instinct looked right. I'll take it
