Home >> Writing Guide >> Citation Guide >> APA Citation Style

Introduction

This guide is based on the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 5th ed. (Washington D.C. American Psychological Association, 2001).

•  If you are using the style for Copy Manuscripts, doublespace all lines. If you are using the style for Final Manuscripts, singlespace all lines and skip a line in between each reference. Ask your professor which style to follow.

•  Arrange the items on your reference list alphabetically by author, interfiling books, articles, etc.

•  Indent the second and following lines 5 to 7 spaces or one half inch.

•  Use only the initials of the authors' first (and middle) names.

•  If no author is given, start with the title and then the date.

•  If you are using a typewriter that cannot produce italics, then use underlining instead.

•  Magazine articles: include the month (and day) as shown under Newspapers.

•  Websites: if the date the page was created is not given, use (n.d.).

•  The rules concerning a title within a title are not displayed here for purposes of clarity.
