<list>

List

A sequence of two or more items, which may or may not be ordered

Remarks

The @list-type attribute should be used to indicate the display style for the list, such as lower alpha, upper roman, bulleted, dashed, etc.

The <label> element is required for all lists except those typed explicitly as "unlabelled". APA will enforce this requirement via Schematron.
