Supplementing Stefan's answer...
Also, look at the Navigation Pane (under the view menu). It indents different outline levels.
If you have assigned outline levels to your paragraph styles, they will indent in Outline view and the Navigation Pane, even if not indented in the printed version or printed copy.
Like Stefan, I refer you to the article
How to create numbered headings or outline numbering in Ribbon Versions of Word by Shauna Kelly.
Any new release of software should include some changes. I wish that MS did a better job of documenting its programs and brought the help files up to the standards of those in Word 2003. I wish for a lot of things; at my age, I have stopped expecting those wishes to come true, though. Every once in a while, I am pleasantly surprised.
This, though, is not a change. Outline view, I believe was improved somewhat in Word 2013. However, the indenting of levels in Outline view has always depended on different outline levels being assigned through paragraph styles.
In this respect, Word 2013 is not different from Word 97.
