In the following example of a table, the last two columns are not  
aligned on the decimal. Can you tell me why? When replying to the  
list I would appreciate a cc to me.

You could cut and paste a shortened version of the article to see for  
yourself:
%! program = pdflatex

\documentclass[jou,notab]{apa} % journal-like formatting

\usepackage{graphicx} %
\usepackage{booktabs,topcapt,multirow,dcolumn}
\usepackage{url}
\usepackage[font=sf]{caption,subfig}
\usepackage{tikz,pgflibraryarrows}

\usepackage{amsmath,amsbsy,sfmath,bm}
\usepackage{color}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{textcomp}
