Introduction to the APA Referencing System - Psychology Health

Task: APA is an author-date system, in which author-date citations are used within text: 1. When you refer to an author’s ideas (information prominent citation), place within brackets the surname(s) of the author(s) of the source, the year of publication, and a page number when appropriate, separated by commas. 2. Place information prominent citations at the end of the phrase or sentence containing information from the source. 3. When the author’s name is used in the sentence (an author-prominent citation), provide only the publication year and page number. 4. To include multiple sources in a single citation, separate source information within the brackets with a semicolon. 5. Identify direct quotations with quotation marks around the text from the original source, and provide the page or paragraph number in addition to the author and date. 6. Provide complete bibliographic information about the source in a reference list located at the end of the text.
