APA Style Citations (American Psychological Association)
This guide provides basic guidelines and examples for citing sources following the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, commonly referred to as "APA style." • APA style requires that you provide, in your text, brief parenthetical references identifying each work referredto. The APA format for parenthetical references is described on pages 2-3 of this guide. At the end of your paper, provide an alphabetized "Reference List" containing complete citations for all works cited or referred to in your paper. General rules governing APA reference list entries begin on page 3 of this guide.
