American Psychological Association

(APA) Citation Guide

Introduction & Notes

Précis: This handout contains information on how to cite resources in the APA style. All

information in this handout is taken from the Publication Manual of the American Psychological

Association, 6th

ed. (found in our Reference Collection at call number: R 808.02 P976 2010).

This guide has a lot in it, but it doesn’t have everything – if you’re having difficulty citing a

resource, please contact either Mike Westbrook ([email protected]) or Luke Beatty

([email protected]).

Meta-Notes: These are particularities or situations that you will encounter across a variety of

resources, which are covered here:

Meta Note 1: There are two elements you have to consider when citing in the APA style: your

References list and your in-text citation.

The References list comes at the end of your paper, is titled “References”, and is

organized in alphabetical order by author last name. It contains full references of all the

work you have cited. You can see sample references in the References section of the

guide (and also accompanying each entry).

The in-text citation is an abbreviated reference that accompanies your text. You can see

sample in-text citations for each entry in this guide.

Meta Note 2: There’s only one way to cite a reference in your References list, but there are two

ways you can cite in-text. These methods are the name-in-sentence method and the parenthesis

method. Your choice will mostly boil down to a stylistic preference, but the examples in this

guide use the parenthesis format. Here are examples of each:

Parenthesis method: After the event, the crowd dispersed (Johnson, 2012).

Name-in-sentence method: After the event, Johnson (2012) noted the crowd dispersed.

Meta Note 3: APA isn’t as concerned with including page numbers in your in-text references as

some other formats, but if you’re directly quoting, or citing a specific piece of information, you

should include a page number.

Meta Note 4: Citing authors is a tricky business in APA, but thankfully it works the same way

for every type of resource. We’ve covered the rules for citing multiple authors under the Books

section of this guide. Simply apply the author citation rules to any type of material you need.

Meta Note 5: If you can’t find a date on a particular work (or it doesn’t have one), put “n.d.”

(meaning “no date”) in the position you would normally place your date.

Meta Note 6: For your in-text citation, use “p,” if you are citing only one page, and “pp.” if you

are citing more than one page.

** Students often complain to us Librarians that citation is

arbitrary, nonsensical, difficult, and overly particular. On all these

counts, they are correct. Alas, citation is also a necessary

component of research, and it isn’t going anywhere. The solution,

then, is to use this guide and ask for help when you need it! **

Examples

Blog

Format: Author, A.A. (Publication year, month day). Blog post title [Web log post].

Retrieved from URL

Example: Wayne, A.P. (2014, February 23). Safety tips, don’t break a leg [Web log post].

Retrieved from https://www.safetyblog.com/break-a-leg.php

In-Text: The market for theatre safety materials was burgeoning, and had even extended into

the blogosphere (Wayne, 2014).

Note 1: Include a retrieval date (i.e. “Retrieved January 22, 2014, from URL”) only if you believe the source is likely to change over time.

Note 2: The “Blog post title” is NOT italicized.

Book (with 1 author or 1 editor)

Format: Author, A.A. / Editor, A.A. (Ed.). (Publication year). Book title. Location:

Publisher.

Example

1:

Reda, G.R. (2008). Bike polo: Hipster folly or true sport? Portland, OR: Armisenis

Press.

Example

2:

Blatche, M.N. (Ed.). (2014). The ignominious death of bike polo. Washington,

OR: Rowlff Publishing Co, Ltd.

In-Text: In a few short years, bike polo had become a popular activity with the flannel-and-

skinny-jeans set (Reda, 2008, p. 89). Predictably, however, the fad was short-lived,

and the hipster zeitgeist soon moved on (Blatche, 2014).

Note 1: The “(Ed.)” refers to an editor, and is only included when you are citing for an editor.

Book (with 2 authors or 2 editors)

Format: Author, A.A., & Author, B.B./ Editor, A.A., & Editor, B.B. (Eds.) (Publication

year). Book title. Location: Publisher.

Example

1:

Stewart, A.I., & Juber, L.L. (2008). Roads to Moscow. Edinburgh, Scotland: Davis

Publications .

Example

1:

Roth, U.J., & Meine, K.C. (Eds.). (1966). Hitler after Roehm. Heidelberg,

Germany: In Trance Press.

In-Text: With Ernst Roehm’s murder, Himmler had eliminated a dangerous and resourceful

rival (Stewart & Juber, 2008, p. 20-30). In addition, he had also cleared the Storm

Battalion’s influence from the Nazi power structure, thus freeing Hitler to insinuate

himself further into the German state apparatus (Roth & Meine, 1966, p. 100-125).

Note 1: The “(Eds).” refers to editors, and is only included when you are citing for editors.

Book (with 3-7 authors or 3-7 editors)

Format: Author, A.A., Author, B.B., & Author, C.C. / Editor, A.A., Editor, B.B., & Editor,

C.C. (Eds.). (Publication year). Book title. Location: Publisher.

Example

1:

Hayman, R.R., Loyer, J.J., & Cleaver, R.V. (2012). What does ‘information

literacy’ mean for information professionals? Springfield, IL: CLA Group

Publications.

Example

2:

Monteith, J.M., Herscovitch, P.L., & Millard, M.M. (Eds.). (2000). Mid-career

librarians and tenure preparations. Calgary, Canada: Scholars North Press.

In-Text: The tenure question has always been a bugaboo of academic librarianship, especially

when considering the non-credit instruction that librarians frequently take on

(Monteith, Herscovitch, & Millard). Contributions to teaching ‘information literacy’

– as variously and widely defined as that term is – also play an important role in

tenure considerations for librarians (Hayman, Loyer, & Cleaver).

Note 1: The “(Eds).” refers to editors, and is only included when you are citing for editors.

Note 2: For 3-5 authors/editors, the first in-text citation will contain all authors of the work -- in this case, [ex. (Hayman, Loyer, & Cleaver, 2012)] -- while subsequent in-text citations will contain only the first author, followed by “et al.” (which means “and all others”) [ex. (Hayman et al., 2012)].

Note 3: For 6-7 authors/editors, all in-text citations will contain the “et al.” citation. In this example, the

proper in-text citation is: (Hayman et al., 2012).

Page 5: American Psychological Association (APA) Citation Guide

Created & Maintained by Luke Beatty; Last updated: September, 2014 Page 5

Book (with 8 or more authors or 8 or more editors)

Format: First 6 Author, A.A., … Final Author, B.B. / First 6 Editor, A.A., … Final Author

B.B. (Eds.). (Publication year). Book title. Location: Publisher.

Example

1:

Stancowicz, B.L., Jansson, S.A., Tomahiro, K.B., Youngwon, M.H., Hoon, S.C.,

Heidel, I.U., … Cheong, T.M. (2003). Silly stories from the help desk. Denver,

CO: Avalanche Publishers, Inc.

Example

2:

Smith, S.S., Johnson, J.J., Williams, W.W., Brown, B.B., Jones, G.G., Miller, M.M.,

… Davis, D.D. (Eds.). (2006). Stupid stories from the set. Hollywood, CA: Fat

Man in a Bathtub Press.

In-Text: The work is brimming with tales of impossible stupidity, ranging from a user who

confuses his toaster with a fax machine, to a man who plugs his amplifier into a

disused toilet bowl (Stancowicz et al., 2003). Likewise, Stupid Stories from the Set

paints a dispiriting picture of everyday idiocy, with a particularly notable incident

being a PA who confuses his boss’ coffee with paint thinner (Smith et al., 2006).

Note 1: The “(Eds.)” refers to editors, and is only included when you are citing for editors.

Note 2: All in-text citations will contain only the first author, followed by “et al.” (which means “and all others”). In this example, the proper in-text citation is: (Stancowicz et al., 2003).

Book (translated)

Format: Author, A.A. (Publication year). Book title. (A.A. Author, Trans.). Location:

Publisher. (Original work published Publication year).

Example: Glendenning, H.M. (2004). Collecting liquor by the river: Memoirs of a life well

lived. (G.G. Genzingher, Trans.). Queenston, Canada: High Falls Press. (Original

work published 1913).

In-Text: The liquor, of course, was just a pretense -- it was really just an excuse to flirt with

the fisherman, laborers, and dock workers that littered the area (Glendenning,

2004/1913, pp. 36-41).

Note 1: For your in-text citation, include both the original and translated publication dates.

Book (reprint)

Format: Author, A.A. (Current publication year). Book title. Location: Publisher. (Original

work published Original publication year).

Example: Parker, J.J. (2012). A most fabulous folio of New York’s finest. New York: Ball

Point Publishing. (Original work published 1921).

In-Text: Much in the style of the day, an outsized cross-hatching technique was used to

portray the larger-than-life figures of the era (Parker, 2012/1921, pp. 50-100).

Note 1: For your in-text citation, include both the original and reprinted publication dates.

Book Chapter (in an edited book)

Format: Chapter Author, A.A. (Publication Year). Chapter title. In A.A. Editor (Ed.), Book

title (chapter page numbers). Location: Publisher.

Example: Hardle, S.B. (1972). Amy Johnson. In Arbuckle, F.F. (Ed.), Aviators you’ve never

heard of (pp. 417-463). London: Aileron Group.

In-Text: Forever in the shadow of Amelia Earhart, and without her knack for self-promotion,

Amy Johnson was destined to be “the other” aviatrix of the pre-Depression era

(Hardle, 1972, pp. 420-428).

Note 1: You would only cite a book chapter in an edited book (i.e. a book where every chapter is written by a different author, but assembled by an editor); if the book only has one author, you would just cite the entire book, even if you’re only using one chapter.

Book Review

Format: Author, A.A. (Publication year). Title of review. [Review of the book Book title,

by A.A. Author]. Journal/Magazine name, volume #(issue #), page numbers.

Example: Pumanti, E.M. (2004). Leo Kottke’s disappointing autobiography! [Review of the

book Autobiography, by L.L. Kottke]. Journal of American Musios, 4(3), 17-19.

In-Text: The reviews were dismal, however, and Kottke quickly went back to his guitar

(Pumanti, 2004, pp. 17-19).

Brochure / Flyer

Format: Author, A.A. (Publication year). Brochure title [Brochure/Flyer]. Location:

Publisher.

Example: Occidental Aesthetics. (2001). Lose 40 pounds in 48 hours [Brochure]. Chicago:

Occidental Aesthetics.

In-Text: Cosmetic surgery was even making inroads in socioeconomically depressed areas of

the city, best epitomized by the ubiquitous Lose 40 Pounds in 48 Hours brochure,

found throughout Chicago’s south side in the summer of 2001 (Occidental

Aesthetics, 2001).

Classical Work (i.e. religious text)

Format

(In-Text):

(Work name specific book [if applicable] chapter [if applicable]: verse [if

applicable] version [if applicable].

Example: Classical works are NOT cited in the reference list because they are considered to be

“commonly known”, and thus, a reference would be redundant. Only cite In-Text.

In-Text: The Abrahamic religions, of course, offered guidance on the matter (Qur’an 7:1-2;

The Bible Ezekial 2:8-9 King James Version). Even the non-Abrahamic traditions

take a position on the issue (Baalapandita Sutta).

Note 1: If the work does not have a) specific books, b) chapters, or c) verses, simply omit those sections from your in-text citation.

Note 2: Deciding what is, and isn’t, a classical work can be tricky. Most religious works are considered classical, but where would, for instance, Scientology fit? Some consider Shakespeare’s work classical, others not. If in doubt, simply cite the work as you would a regular book.

Conversation / Email/ Phone Call / Personal Interview

Format

(In-Text):

(A.A. Sender, personal communication, Month Day, Year)

Reference

Example:

Conversations, email, phone calls, and personal interviews are NOT included in the

reference list because they don’t provide recoverable data. Only cite these In-Text.

In-Text

Example:

Johnson, a violent and contemptible racist, spewed forth an unceasing stream of

race-baiting invective during our conversation (D.D. Crow, personal

communication, January 7, 2014).

Dataset / Statistic

Format: Author, A.A. / Rights Holder. (Publication year, month [if present]). Title of data

set/statistic [Description of material type]. Location: Name of Producer.

Example: Stuckey, D.J. (1780). The London social register 1779 [Social register]. London:

The London Historical Society.

Example

2:

South African Department of Mineral Resources. (1978, May). South African

mines 1978 [Data file and codebook]. Johannesburg, South Africa: Government

Printing Works.

Example

3:

South African Department of Labour. (1979). Labour segmentation in South

African mining operations by job type [Chart]. Johannesburg, South Africa:

Government Printing Works.

In-Text: The range of datasets available to the modern consumer is enormous. Consider

social registers, now available in England as far back 1779 (Stuckey, 1780). Or,

should one’s tastes run more to the modern, one can find state-funded datasets in

most national libraries, such as, for instance, South African Mines 1978, as is

currently available in the National Library of South Africa (South African

Department of Mineral Resources, 1978). Visual representations of this data –

graphs, charts, tables, etc. – are also frequently used to illustrate various facets

within a dataset (South African Department of Labour, 2011; ).

Note 1: Don’t include a month in your in-text citation, even if it appears in the reference.

Note 2: A dataset is simply a collection of data (data being a body of facts or information about a particular subject); a statistic is a particular piece of data, often represented graphically.

Example

2:

International Monetary Fund. (2014). Percentage of household income paid to state

In-Text: As at July, 2014, France had the 5th

largest GDP in the world (World Bank, 2014).

France is unusual amongst the G10, however, in the unusually high percentage of

household income which goes toward the payment of state tax (International

Monetary Fund, 2014).

Note 1: Don’t include a month in your in-text citation, even if it appears in the reference.

ed.

London: Oxford.

Example

2:

Defriend. (n.d.). In Merriam-Webster’s dictionary, 25th

ed. London: Oxford.

In-Text: ‘Antidisestablishmentarianism’ is the longest word in the English language (Oxford

English dictionary, 2012). Language evolves, however, and even words that we

once thought silly – ‘defriend’, for instance – can find their way into dictionaries

(Merriam-Webster’s dictionary, n.d.).

Note 1: If you can’t find a date, or the work doesn’t have one, put “n.d.” (meaning, “no date”) for the publication year.

Dictionary Entry (online)

Format: Word. (Publication year). In Title of dictionary. Retrieved from URL

Example: Googol. (2014). In dictionary.com. Retrieved from http://dictionary.reference.com/

In-Text: Most people are unaware that the tech company Google took its name from the word

‘googol’, indicating the number (1.0 × 10100

) (dictionary.com, 2014).

Note 1: If you can’t find a date, or the work doesn’t have one, put “n.d.” (meaning, “no date”) for the publication year.

E-Book

Format: Author, A.A. (Publication year). Title of book. Retrieved from URL /doi:

In-Text: Research has revealed that vanilla is the most popular flavor of ice cream (Johnson,

2013). Subsequent research, however, has confirmed that chocolate ice cream is

growing in popularity (Manley, 2014, pp. 10-15).

Gallagher, L.N. (2000). Dynamic range compression in post-grunge popular music.

In The Encyclopedia of Music Mastering, 2nd

edition. (Vol. 3, pp. 972-979). Boston,

Example

2:

Fagen, W.B. (2014). iTunes Radio and volume normalization standards. In

Handbook of Digital Music. (pp. 242-247). New York, NY: Steely Brothers

Publishing.

In-Text: Though certain albums retained a more dynamic mastering, the majority of popular

recordings were now being mastered in a compressed fashion (Gallagher, 2000).

With iTunes Radio’s volume ceiling, however, the incentive to hot master was now

considerably less than was the case with terrestrial radio (Fagen, 2014, pp. 243-245).

Note 1: Edition refers to the version/printing/iteration of the encyclopedia, while volume refers to the number of different books which make up the encyclopedia. For example, World Book could be in its 10th edition, and in that edition, there might be 26 volumes, perhaps one for each letter of the alphabet. Note 2: If the encyclopedia and/or handbook only has one volume, simply leave out the “Vol. number, page numbers” section of your citation.

Essay (in a collection or anthology)

Format: Essay Author, A.A. (Book publication year). Essay title. In A.A. Editor (Ed.),

Book title (pages numbers of essay). Location: Publisher.

Example: DeWitt, H.H. (2002). On the causes of poverty. In M.G. Canard (Ed.), Why can’t

we save? (pp. 80-90). Chagrin Falls, OH: Financial Literacy Publication.

In-Text: Though the causes of poverty are multivariate, the inability to recognize one’s own

financial interests are complicating the problem (DeWitt, 2002, p. 81).

Essay (in a reprinted volume or course pack)

Format: Essay Author, A.A. (Book publication year). Essay title. In A.A. Editor (Ed.),

Book title (page numbers of essay). Location: Publisher. (Reprinted from Journal

Name, journal issue publication year, volume number(issue number), page numbers).

Example: Millions, T.T. (2003). Anti-racism education in pre-modern children’s literature:

Decentering Curious George. In Wiseman, M.G. (Ed.), Kid-lit v.0.5 (pp. 20-30).

Toronto, Canada: Pissant Press. (Reprinted from Divestiture, 1981, 123(10), 32-42).

In-Text: The prevailing attitudes of the day were profoundly hostile to communities of color,

though those prejudices were, to a degree, lessened in popular children’s fantasies of

the late 1890s and into the early 1900s (Millions, 2003/1981, p. 25-28).

Note 1: For your in-text citation, include both the original and reprinted publication dates.

Film / Motion Picture

Format: Producer, A.A. (Producer), & Director, A.A. (Director). (Release/publication

year). Film title [Format]. Country: Movie Studio.

Example

1:

Spolborg, B.E. (Producer), & Abrahams, K.K. (Director). (2014). Guns against

wizardry [Motion picture]. United States: Imagithrill Productions.

Example

2:

Boone, J.R. (Producer), & Hudson, F.G. (Director). (2011). Satan vs. aliens

[DVD]. United States: Palimpsest Studios.

In-Text: With Satan vs. Aliens, Hollywood budgets had been taken to a ludicrous extreme

(Boone and Hudson, 2011). The budget of Guns Against Wizardry was larger still,

though, in fairness, the CGI work was breathtaking (Spolborg and Abrahams, 2014).

Government Publication

Hung, W.S. (2003). A review of the evidence: The MMR vaccination and the

development of autism spectrum disorders. Vancouver, Canada: Health Canada,

Canadian Institute for Health Information.

Example

2:

British Columbia Ministry of Health. (1999). Do vaccinations cause autism?

Victoria, Canada: Queen’s Printer for British Columbia.

In-Text: Health authorities mounted a campaign to assure the public that vaccinations were

indeed safe (British Columbia Ministry of Health, 1999). By 2003, these campaigns

had a wealth of counter-evidence to discredit Wakefield’s claims (Hung, 2003).

In-Text: With the rise of social media, the memorialization of pets was taken to new heights.

Consider Dogs on the Couch, which depicts a dog acting in the manner of a human

(Cooke, 2014). Similarly, Furby Gets Shaved, playfully captures the in-progress

shaving of Furby, an impossibly fluffy dog (McDermott, 2013).

post-secular elephant in the room. Illumine!, 14, 38-40.

In-Text: Basket weaving was held in contempt by many of the faculty, but a grassroots,

student-led campaign spurred its take-up at the college (Jack, 2007, p. 9). In time,

basket weaving became a cornerstone of the curriculum (Jack, 2009).

In-Text: Sabermetrics had been developed in the 1980s by Bill James, but prior to 2000, had

mostly been used in baseball (Simmons, 2009, p. 20-25). Their use in the NBA

began to skyrocket with when Houston Rocket’s General Manager, Daryl Morey,

In-Text: Still carrying the moniker ‘Shawn’, Larouge produced a startling array of records,

most notably Arrows Through Apples, which saw him join forces with local garage

rock luminaries Nikes Conroy and Butch Weatherhead (LaRouge, 2011). Three

years later, Larouge had gone solo, though his output remained vital, most notably

on the already-classic ‘Pumps and Paradise’ (LaRouge, 2014).

Example

2:

DeMontario, D.P. (1977, December 12). Fiery auto wreck at the Main St. pumping

station. The Podunk Times, pp. C3-C7.

In-Text: The term ‘jerkwater’ originally described trains which ran off the main line

(Blatchford, 1972, p. B2). Podunk, IL was indeed a jerkwater town, but after its

pumping station was engulfed in flames in 1977, things got even more difficult for

trains passing through town (DeMontario, 1977, pp. C3-C7).

Note 1: Most periodicals don’t use (“pp.” or “p.”) in the References list, but newspapers do because they don’t have volumes. In the References list, use “p.” if there’s only one page in the newspaper and “pp.” if there’s more than one page. Mirror that for your in-text citation. Honestly, this is the sort of lunatic particularism that gives academic citation its justifiably bad name. Happy times!

SUSAN: Now, you see, Janet, one can never be too clean! Never, never,

never! For cleanliness is next to godliness – and you want to be closer to

God, don’t you???

JANET: No, no I don’t. [JANET calmly deposits her freshly laundered

clothes on the floor]. Poo poo to God, and poo poo to you! [JANET reaches

into her pocket, removes a handful of dirt, and throws it across her bed].

Filth is my only god! [JANET walks to her aquarium, reaches inside, and

flings a ream of algae into SUSAN’s face].

SUSAN: Dammit, Janet!

original title used little more than icons and text to convey its adventure

(Parallaxium, 1983). The remake is a multimillion dollar extravaganza, bordering

on the obscene.

has been supplemented with a not-so-secret ingredient – aspartame. Though health
