When reporting results in an APA-style narrative sentence, terms are spelled out, such as: 'The mean age of the participants was $$22.43$$ years with a standard deviation of $$2.34$$.' Conversely, when statistics are reported parenthetically, abbreviations are used, such as: 'The treatment group had a mean of $$23.40$$ ($$SD = 9.33$$)' or 'There was a moderate negative correlation... ($$r = -.27$$).'
