There are many different ways of citing resources from your research. The citation style
sometimes depends on the academic discipline involved. For example:
APA (American Psychological Association) is used by Education, Psychology, and Sciences
MLA (Modern Language Association) style is used by the Humanities
Chicago/Turabian style is generally used by Business, History, and the Fine Arts
Most journals have both volume numbers and issue numbers for the issues within a volume. You
include the volume number. Only include the issue number if each issue starts again at page
number 1.
If the author is not known, the title of the article moves to the author position.
