APA In-Text Citation: Direct Quotations DIRECT – Within the text of your paper According to Mickalowski, Mickelson, and Keltgen (2008), “Apple parlayed the strong reputation of the Apple brand and the iPod’s success to enter a lucrative cell phone market” (p. 283). BLOCK – Used if the direct quotation is over 40 words However, there are differing opinions about Apple’s iPhone launch: Apple parlayed the strong reputation of the Apple brand and the iPod’s success to enter a lucrative cell phone market, a step that may ward off a potential threat to Apple as other companies introduce devices that have strong music-storing and playback capabilities. (Mickalowski, Mickelson, & Keltgen, 2008, pp. 283-284)
APA In-Text Citation: Paraphrased Information • BEGINNING OF SENTENCE • Mickalowski, Mickelson, and Keltgen (2008) believe Apple used their lead in the portable music player market to strategically time the iPhone’s launch. • MIDDLE OF SENTENCE • Without the success of the iPod, Mickalowski, Mickelson, and Keltgen (2008) believe Apple’s launch of the iPhone would not have been profitable as it was. • END OF SENTENCE • The success of Apple’s iPhone launch is strongly tied to the existing success of the iPod (Mickalowski, Mickelson, and Keltgen, 2008). • PARAPHRASING • Must be cited with the author and year of publication of the original source; page number is optional. (Page number is required for direct quotes!) • TIP: Read the original material, put it out of sight, and restate the idea/concept in your own words.
Reference Citations • Start list on a new page, with References centered at the top of the page. • Double spaced with hanging indent • Alphabetize by author’s last name or name of the corporate author • Every in-text citation should be listed in your references; every reference should have a corresponding in-text citation!
