    APA Style Sample 1


    Mikayla Connolly 32011648

    The American Psychological Association (APA) style is primarily

    used in the social science disciplines. It is formatted like Modern Language

    Association (MLA), and shows many similarities, but is unique in several

    key points. This paper discusses the APA in detail. Look at Referencing

    Help sheet – there is a sentence that needs to be added here. You need to

    remember to insert the two citations with RefWorks (do not just copy and

    paste the sentence).

    Discussion

    APA uses parenthetical (or in-text) citations within sentences, but

    rather than indicating the author's name and page number, APA includes

    author's name and date of publication. The page number, represented with a

    p. or a pp., is only added to the citation when using a direct quote (not a

    summary or paraphrase). If the author's name is mentioned in the sentence,

    then place the date of publication in parentheses directly after the name. If

    the name is not mentioned include the author's name and date in parentheses

    at the end of the source material. And, if you use a direct quote, place the

    page number after the publication date within the parentheses.

    Examples

    Note the difference between the following three examples:

    Terrence (1999) has presented poignant examples from 150

    interviews. However, it has been pointed out that the research was

    conducted in a selective, highly biased, way (Strong & Porter, 1998). All of

    the interviewees have been called “exceptions to the norm” (Strong &

    Porter, 1998, p. 5).


    APA Style Sample 2

    Note the first example paraphrases an author that is named in the

    sentence, the second example paraphrases authors that are not named in the

    sentence, and the third example provides a direct quote (thus the inclusion

    of the page numbers) but also does not identify the authors within the

    sentence. If the authors were identified within the sentence in the third

    example, the authors' names would be followed by the year of publication

    and only the page numbers would be in the parentheses at the end of the

    quote.

    Format

    Finally, the bibliographic page in APA style differs from MLA, what

    APA calls the Reference page. You will notice a few immediate differences

    from the MLA Works Cited format. With APA you include the initial of the

    author's first name rather than the complete name, the publication date

    immediately follows the author's name in parentheses, and titles of articles

    are not surrounded with quotation marks. The lists are still alphabetized by

    author's last name (or title in the absence of an author) and the first line is

    flush left while subsequent lines in the same entry are indented in

    (approximately 5 spaces or one tab). A good resource to help you with

    referencing is Notre Dame’s referencing guide at

    http://library.nd.edu.au/referencing/apa#s-lg-box-3040351. There is also a

    summary downloadable help document available at:

    http://library.nd.edu.au/ld.php?content_id=8053459. In APA Style, you

    include a reference list rather than a bibliography with your paper (APA,

    2017). A reference list consists of all sources cited in the text of a paper

    whereas a bibliography may include resources that were consulted but not

    cited in the text as well as an annotated description of each one.

    Summary

    The School of Education, University of Notre Dame Australia, uses

    the APA 6th referencing style for all written documents. In addition to in text

    referencing and the reference list there are a number of formatting

    requirements to ensure your essay complies with APA standards. Get to

    know the APA 6th.
