THE AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGICAL
ASSOCIATION (APA)
The style guide issued by the
American Psychological Association
(APA) is one of the common
formatting styles in academic
writing. Despite its name, APA style
is used in a variety of academic
disciplines as it's designed to be
clear and easy to follow. This is
certainly a plus when faced with
organizing a paper.
EXAMPLES
According to Smith (2012), laughing helps a
person conquer the hiccups.
•The second way of doing an in-text citation is to
cite the information, then put both the author and
the publication year in parentheses:
EXAMPLES
Laughter is believed to be a way to conquer
the hiccups (Smith, 2012).
•If, instead of summarizing the information from
the source, you will be using a direct quote, you
will also need the page number on which the
quote can be found in your in-text citation.
EXAMPLES
According to Smith (2012), ''Laughter was
successful in curing hiccups almost 70% of
the time'' (p. 822).
If the author is not cited in the introductory
phrase, the citation for a direct quote would look
like this:
EXAMPLES
(Smith, 2012, p. 822)
•The big thing to remember is that when using a
direct quote, make sure the page number the
quote can be found on is a part of the in-text
citation.
REFERENCE PAGE
APA FORMAT
The reference page is a
page that lists all of the sources
used within your paper. The
references should be placed in
alphabetical order according to
the author's last name. All lines
in the entry after the first line
should be indented half an inch
from the margin.
REFERENCE PAGE
APA FORMAT
When creating your
reference page, you will need
additional pieces of
information from your citation.
What information is needed
will depend on the type of
reference you are using. This
video will cover the two most
common types of references
in academic writing: journal
articles and books
JOURNAL ARTICLE IN APA
FORMAT
•When creating a reference entry for
a journal article, you will need:
 the name of the author
 the year the article was published
 the name of the article
 the name of the journal
 the volume and issue number of
the journal
 the pages on which the article can
be found
 the DOI (if available)
