The purpose of this guide is to provide students with a basic introduction to APA citation style. For complete information, see the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association 5th edition (Educ Lib-Reference BF76.7 A51 2001) DEFINITIONS Reference citations in text: The APA system of citing sources indicates the author's last name and thedate, in parentheses, within the text of the paper. Parenthetical citations replace the traditional footnotes or endnotes.All citations in the paper must appear in the reference list, and all references must be cited in text. For detailed information on reference citations in text, refer to sections 3.94-3.103 of the APA manual. Reference List: This list at the end of the paper documents the paperand provides the information necessary to identify and retrieve each source. Note that a reference list differs from a bibliography in that a reference list includes only works cited within the paper. For detailed information on the reference list, refer to Chapter 4 of the APA manual. EXAMPLES OF REFERENCE CITATIONS IN TEXT A.
