| Definition |
Flush is a writing, research, or communication concept related to the justification of the text in a paper (meaning to which margin of the page the text lines up). In APA, with the exception of page numbers, the title of the paper, the title-block, certain level titles, block quotations, the abstract title, and the References page title-- all text should be justified flush left. Page numbers are placed flush right, and all of the other exceptions are center justified.
