+apa.cls is a LaTeX2e class file that makes your document conform to
+the APA Publication Manual (Fifth Edition, 2001) specifications for
+manuscripts or to the APA journal look found in journals like the
+Journal of Experimental Psychology etc. In addition, it provides a
+regular LaTeX-like output with a few enhancements and APA-motivated
+changes.
+
+This is a document *class* which uses (and modifies) some packages to
+achieve strictly defined formatting results and also uses the apacite
+package (sty & bst) for citations and references. If you only want
+APA-like citation for other kinds of documents (e.g., a thesis) use
+apacite.sty with an appropriate class.
+
+In order to use this document class you need some packages that may
+not be present in your LaTeX distribution. Please read apacls.txt
+carefully to understand what you need to install and what is possible
+with apa.cls, then read examples.txt carefully to understand how to
+use apa.cls (macros and instructions).
