Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I format my paper so that the phrase Running head appears on only the first page?

A: Microsoft Word

1. From the menu, click on the Insert tab.2. On the toolbar that appears, choose the Page Number option.3. Select the option you want (usually top of the page).4. Go to the menu, at the top of the page, under Header and Footer Tools, click the box that

says Different first page.5. Your cursor should now be at the top of page 1 in the header box. Set the cursor just to

the left of the number 1 and type Running head: and then your abbreviated title.6. Use the backspace key to set your title to the left and then use the tab key to move the

page number back to the right hand side (usually 2 tabs).7. Close the header and footer (red x on the top right-hand side of the page)8. Go to page 2 of your document (or if you haven't started writing it, insert a page break)

and delete the phrase Running head, leaving just your abbreviated title.9. On page 1, Running head will remain in your first page header, and only your

abbreviated title will appear on subsequent pages.

(It's easier to set up the pages before you start writing the paper.)

Q: How do you cite a reference to a book when there is no author or editor?

A: Example (print version):

Merriam-Webster's collegiate dictionary (11th ed.). (2005). Springfield, MA: Merriam-Webster.

Place the title in the author position. Alphabetize books with no author or editor by the first significant word in the title

(Merriam in this case). In text, use a few words of the title, or the whole title if it is short, in place of an author

name in the citation: (Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, 2005).

Example (electronic version):

Heuristic. (n.d.). In Merriam-Webster’s online dictionary (11th ed.). Retrieved from

http://www.m-w.com/dictionary/heuristic

If the online version refers to a print edition, include the edition number after the title.

Q: What is a digital object identifier, or DOI?

A. A digital object identifier (DOI) is a unique alphanumeric string assigned by a registration agency (the International DOI Foundation) to identify content and provide a persistent link to its location on the Internet. The publisher assigns a DOI when your article is published and made available electronically.

When DOIs are available, you should include them for both print and electronic sources. The DOI is typically located on the first page of the electronic journal article, near the copyright notice. The DOI can also be found on the database landing page for the article.

Q: When do you include a retrieval date in a citation?

A. When a citation includes a digital object identifier, no further retrieval information is needed.

When a DOI is not available, and a URL is included, do not include retrieval dates unless the source material may change over time (e.g., wikis).

Q: How do you cite an entire website (but not a specific document on that site)?

A. When citing an entire website, it is sufficient to give the address of the site in just the text.

Example:

Kidspsych is a wonderful interactive website for children

(http://www.kidspsych.org).

Q: How do you reference a web page that lists no author?

A. When there is no author for a web page, the title moves to the first position of the reference entry:

Example:

New child vaccine gets funding boost. (2001). Retrieved March 21, 2001, from

http://news.ninemsn.com.au/health/story_13178.asp

Cite in-text the first few words of the reference list entry (usually the title) and the year. Use double quotation marks around the title or abbreviated title.: ("New Child Vaccine," 2001).

Q: How do you cite an interview?

A. An interview is not considered recoverable data, so no reference to this is provided in the reference list. You may, however, cite the interview within the text as a personal communication.

Examples:

A teacher wears many hats: educator, counselor, role model, advisor, and coach (J. Smith, personal communication, August 15, 2009.)

As J. Smith puts it, “A teacher has to perform many duties other than educating students. He or she is a role model, and advisor, a coach, and often a counselor” (personal communication, August 15, 2009.)

Q: How do you cite a source that you found in another source?

A. Use secondary sources sparingly, for instance, when the original work is out of print, unavailable through usual sources, or not available in English. Give the secondary source in the reference list; in text, name the original work and give a citation for the secondary source.

For example, if Allport's work is cited in Nicholson and you did not read Allport's work, list the Nicholson reference in the reference list. In the text, use the following citation:

Allport's diary (as cited in Nicholson, 2003).

Q: How do I format a direct quotation?

A. Material quoted directly from another source (i.e., reproduced word for word from works by other authors, your own previously published work, material replicated from a test item, and/or

verbatim instructions to participants) must always provide the author, year, and specific page(s) in the text citation and include a complete entry in the reference list.

If the quotation includes fewer than 40 words, incorporate it in text and enclose it with double quotation marks. (See the example below.) If the quotation includes more than 40 words, it should be treated as a block quotation, meaning that it is displayed in a freestanding block of text without quotation marks. (See the example below.)

Fewer than 40 words:

1. According to Palladino and Wade (2010), “a flexible mind is a healthy mind” (p. 147).2. In 2010, Palladino and Wade noted that “a flexible mind is a healthy mind” (p. 147).3. In fact, “a flexible mind is a healthy mind” (Palladino & Wade, 2010, p. 147).4. “A flexible mind is a healthy mind,” according to Palladino and Wade’s (2010, p. 147)

longitudinal study.

5. Palladino and Wade’s (2010) results indicate that “a flexible mind is a healthy mind” (p. 147).

Note for block quotation: For direct quotations of more than 40 words, display the quote as an indented block of text without quotation marks and include the authors’ names, date, and page number in parentheses at the end of the quote. The punctuation should appear at the end of the quotation.

For example, a block quotation of more than 40 words would appear like this:

This suggests that familiarity with nonnative speech in general, although it is clearly not as important a variable as topic familiarity, may indeed have some effect. That is, prior experience with nonnative speech, such as that gained by listening to the reading, facilitates comprehension. (Gass & Varonis, 1984, p. 77)

If material is paraphrased (i.e., restated in your own words), always provide the author and date in the in-text citation. It is not necessary to include the page number(s) in the citation, but it may be helpful, especially if the source is very long (e.g., a short passage from a whole book).

Q: How do you cite two or more references within the same parentheses?

A. Order the citations of two or more works by different authors within the same parentheses alphabetically in the same order in which they appear in the reference list (including citations that would otherwise shorten to et al.). Separate the citations with semicolons.

Example:

Several studies (Miller, 1999; Shafranske & Mahoney, 1998)

APA Style: In-Text Citations

Author's Name Example of Usage

Author's name part of narrative

Gass and Varonis (1984) found that the most important element in comprehending non-native speech is familiarity with the topic.

Author's name in parentheses

One study found that the most important element in comprehending non-native speech is familiarity with the topic (Gass & Varonis, 1984).

Multiple works (separate each work with semi-colons)

Research shows that listening to a particular accent improves comprehension of accented speech in general (Gass & Varonis, 1984; Krech Thomas, 2004).

Direct quote, author's name part of narrative

Gass and Varonis (1984) found that “the listener’s familiarity with the topic of discourse greatly facilitates the interpretation of the entire message” (p. 85).

Direct quote, author's name in parentheses

One study found that “the listener's familiarity with the topic of discourse greatly facilitates the interpretation of the entire message” (Gass & Varonis, 1984, p. 85).

More About APA In-Text Citations: The Specifics

APA’s in-text citations provide at least the author’s last name and the year of publication. For direct quotations and some paraphrases, a page number is given as well.

NOTE: APA style requires the use of the past tense or the present perfect tense in signal phrases introducing cited material: Smith (2005) reported; Smith (2005) has argued.

Basic format for using quotations, summarizing, and paraphrasing

Schlosser (2002) believes that “the twenty-first [century] will no doubt be marked by a struggle to curtail excessive corporate power” (p.104). Since 1987 the British government has been concerned about the possibilities of a tainted meat supply (Schlosser, 2002, p.84).

Two authors According to Sothern and Gordon (2003), “Environmental factors may contribute as much as 80% to the causes of childhood obesity” (p. 104). Obese children often engage in limited physical activity (Sothern & Gordon, 2003, p. 104).

Unknown author (use an abbreviated form of the title to replace the author)

Children struggling to control their weight must also struggle with the pressures of television advertising that encourages the consumption of junk food while also celebrating thin celebrities (“Television,” 2002).

Two works by same author (designate “a”, “b”, etc. in References list to differentiate sources)

Research by Durgin (2003b) has yielded new findings about the role of counseling in treating childhood obesity.

Electronic source, unknown date (use “n.d.” when no date is given)

Attempts to establish a definitive link between television programming and children’s eating habits have been problematic (Magnus, n.d.).

Work cited in another source

Former surgeon general Dr. David Satcher described “a nation of young people seriously at risk of starting out obese and dooming themselves to the difficult task of overcoming a tough illness” (as cited in Critser, 2003, p. 4).

1. Basic format for a quotation

Ordinarily, introduce the quotation with a signal phrase that includes the author’s last name followed by the year of publication in parentheses. Put the page number preceded by "p." (or "pp." for more than one page) in parentheses after the quotation.

Critser (2003) noted that despite growing numbers of overweight Americans, many health care providers still “remain either in ignorance or outright denial about the health danger to the poor and the young” (p. 5).

If the author is not named in the signal phrase, place the author’s name, the year, and the page number in parentheses after the quotation: (Critser, 2003, p. 5).

NOTE: APA style requires the year of publication in an in-text citation. Do not include a month, even if the entry in the reference list includes the month.

2. Basic format for a summary or a paraphrase

Include the author’s last name and the year either in a signal phrase introducing the material or in parentheses following it. Give a page number to help readers find the passage.

Yanovski and Yanovski (2002) explained that sibutramine suppresses appetite by blocking the reuptake of the neurotransmitters serotonin and norepinephrine in the brain (p. 594).

Sibutramine suppresses appetite by blocking the reuptake of the neurotransmitters serotonin and norepinephrine in the brain (Yanovski & Yanovski, 2002, p. 594).

3. Work with two authors

Name both authors in the signal phrase or the parentheses each time you cite the work. In the parentheses, use “&” between the authors’ names; in the signal phrase, use “and.”

According to Sothern and Gordon (2003), “Environmental factors may contribute as much as 80% to the causes of childhood obesity” (p. 104).

Obese children often engage in limited physical activity (Sothern & Gordon, 2003, p. 104).

4. Work with three to five authors

Identify all authors in the signal phrase or the parentheses the first time you cite the source.

In 2003, Berkowitz, Wadden, Tershakovec, and Cronquist concluded, “Sibutramine . . . must be carefully monitored in adolescents, as in adults, to control increases in [blood pressure] and pulse rate” (p. 1811).

In subsequent citations, use the first author’s name followed by “et al.” in either the signal phrase or the parentheses.

As Berkowitz et al. (2003) advised, “Until more extensive safety and efficacy data are available, . . . weight-loss medications should be used only on an experimental basis for adolescents” (p. 1811).

5. Work with six or more authors

Use the first author’s name followed by “et al.” in the signal phrase or the parentheses.

McDuffie et al. (2002) tested 20 adolescents, aged 12-16, over a three-month period and found that orlistat, combined with behavioral therapy, produced an average weight loss of 4.4 kg, or 9.7 pounds (p. 646).

6. Unknown author

If the author is unknown, mention the work’s title in the signal phrase or give the first word or two of the title in the parenthetical citation. Titles of articles and chapters are put in quotation marks; titles of books and reports are italicized. (For online sources with no author, see item 12.)

Children struggling to control their weight must also struggle with the pressures of television advertising that, on the one hand, encourages the consumption of junk food and, on the other, celebrates thin celebrities (“Television,” 2002).

NOTE: In the rare case when “Anonymous” is specified as the author, treat it as if it were a real name: (Anonymous, 2001). In the list of references, also use the name Anonymous as author.

7. Organization as author

If the author is a government agency or another organization, name the organization in the signal phrase or in the parenthetical citation the first time you cite the source.

Obesity puts children at risk for a number of medical complications, including type 2 diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea, and orthopedic problems (Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation, 2004, p. 1).

If the organization has a familiar abbreviation, you may include it in brackets the first time you cite the source and use the abbreviation alone in later citations.

FIRST CITATION

(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2009)

LATER CITATIONS

(CDC, 2009)

8. Authors with the same last name

To avoid confusion, use initials with the last names if your reference list includes two or more authors with the same last name.

Research by E. Smith (1989) revealed that . . .

9. Two or more works by the same author in the same year

When your list of references includes more than one work by the same author in the same year, use lowercase letters (“a,” “b,” and so on) with the year to order the entries in the reference list. (See item 6.) Use those same letters with the year in the in-text citation.

Research by Durgin (2003b) has yielded new findings about the role of counseling in treating childhood obesity.

10. Two or more works in the same parentheses

When your parenthetical citation names two or more works, put them in the same order that they appear in the reference list, separated with semicolons.

Researchers have indicated that studies of pharmacological treatments for childhood obesity are inconclusive (Berkowitz et al., 2003; McDuffie et al., 2002).

11. Personal communication

Personal interviews, memos, letters, e-mail, and similar unpublished communications should be cited in the text only, not in the reference list. (Use the first initial with the last name in parentheses.)

One of Atkinson’s colleagues, who has studied the effect of the media on children’s eating habits, has contended that advertisers for snack foods will need to design ads responsibly for their younger viewers (F. Johnson, personal communication, October 20, 2009).

12. Electronic source

When possible, cite electronic sources, including online sources, as you would any other source, giving the author and the year.

Atkinson (2001) found that children who spent at least four hours a day watching TV were less likely to engage in adequate physical activity during the week.

Electronic sources sometimes lack authors’ names, dates, or page numbers.

Unknown author

If no author is named, mention the title of the source in the signal phrase or give the first word or two of the title in the parentheses (see also item 6). (If an organization serves as the author, see item 7.)

The body’s basal metabolic rate, or BMR, is a measure of its at-rest energy requirement (“Exercise,” 2003).

Unknown date

When the date is unknown, use the abbreviation “n.d.” (for “no date”).

Attempts to establish a definitive link between television programming and children’s eating habits have been problematic (Magnus, n.d.).

No page numbers

APA ordinarily requires page numbers for quotations, summaries, and paraphrases. When an electronic source lacks stable numbered pages, include paragraph numbers or headings to help readers locate the particular passage being cited.

If the source has numbered paragraphs, use the paragraph number preceded by the abbreviation “para.”: (Hall, 2008, para. 5). If the source contains headings, cite the appropriate heading in

parentheses; you may also indicate the paragraph under the heading that you are referring to, even if the paragraphs are not numbered.

Hoppin and Taveras (2004) pointed out that several other medications were classified by the Drug Enforcement Administration as having the “potential for abuse” (Weight-Loss Drugs section, para. 6).

NOTE: Electronic files in portable document format (PDF) often have stable page numbers. For such sources, give the page number in the parenthetical citation.

13. Indirect source

If you use a source that was cited in another source (a secondary source), name the original source in your signal phrase. List the secondary source in your reference list and include it in your parenthetical citation, preceded by the words “as cited in.” In the following example, Satcher is the original source, and Critser is the secondary source, given in the reference list.

Former surgeon general Dr. David Satcher described “a nation of young people seriously at risk of starting out obese and dooming themselves to the difficult task of overcoming a tough illness” (as cited in Critser, 2003, p. 4).

14. Sacred or classical text

Identify the text, the version or edition you used, and the relevant part (chapter, verse, line). It is not necessary to include the source in the reference list.

Peace activists have long cited the biblical prophet’s vision of a world without war: “And they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more” (Isaiah 2:4, Revised Standard Version).

DOIs, URLs and PERIODICAL CITATIONS

The 6th edition of the APA Manual recommends including a DOI (Digital Object Identifier) in periodical citations when DOIs are present. DOIs are usually found at the beginning or at the end of an article.

The 6th edition of the APA Manual adheres to the following rules about citing periodical articles: • If a periodical article has a DOI (Digital Object Identifier) present, then include the DOI:

o Author, A. A., & Author, B. B. (Publication year). Title of article. Title of Publication, volume number (issue), page-page. doi:0000000/000000000000

• If a periodical article is retrieved in print with no DOI present, you do not need to include the

DOI: o Author, A. A., & Author, B. B. (Publication year). Title of article. Title of Publication,

volume number (issue), page-page.

• If there is no DOI present for an article retrieved online, search CrossRef.org for the article. If you can still not locate a DOI, then include the URL for the periodical’s home page even if the article was retrieved through a database:

o Author, A. A., & Author, B. B. (Publication year). Title of article. Title of Journal, volume number (issue), page-page. Retrieved from http://www.website.com

• If you know that the periodical article is available exclusively online through the database you

retrieved it from, and there is no DOI found then include (a) the database name and the accession number or (b) the database URL (your preference):

o (a) Author, A. A., & Author, B. B. (Publication year). Title of article. Title of Journal, volume number (issue), page-page. Retrieved from Database Name database. (0000000)

o (b) Author, A. A., & Author, B. B. (Publication year). Title of article. Title of Journal,

volume number (issue), page-page. Retrieved from http://www.databaseURL.com

• If you are UNSURE whether a periodical article is available exclusively online and you cannot locate a DOI, then include the URL for the periodical’s home page even if the article was retrieved through a database:

o Author, A. A., & Author, B. B. (Publication year). Title of article. Title of Journal, volume number (issue), page-page. Retrieved from http://www.website.com

• EBSCOhost lists DOI numbers in their search results. DOI numbers can also be found on the PDF article,

itself (usually indicated on the bottom of the first or last page). ProQuest and Lexis Nexis currently do NOT list DOI numbers in most of their citations, so if not available in the article’s PDF, you will need to go to http://www.crossref.org/guestquery/.
