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).
