Significance statement options

[franfrutos]

I have been looking in the documentation for any option for including a significance statement as is often required in some APA related journal. Is there a way to include a new field in the yalm head to specify a significance statement using apaquarto?

Great idea! I have added this as a yaml field:

impact-statement: "This is why my paper matters."

The heading for the impact statement is "Impact Statement" by default. If you want something different, set it in the language field like so:

language:
  title-impact-statement: "Significance Statement"

If you want to have an impact statement in the yaml but suppress it for a journal that does not require it, you can set the suppress-impact-statement field to true:

suppress-impact-statement: true

This feature works for all 4 document types. Let me know if they way I implemented the feature meets your needs.
