  8. APA Style – Nice Body In-text citations

  9. In-Text Citations • Indicate the source(s) (authors, articles, etc.) of a piece of information. • Frequently occur in the intro of a paper. • Use any time you quote, paraphrase, or otherwise use or discuss someone else’s idea in your writing. • If you don’t cite, you plagiarize (unless common knowledge).

  10. To cite or not to cite… The Common Knowledge Test

  11. To cite or not to cite? • The world is round • The world is 7926 miles in diameter. • Freud is the father of modern psychology • Many people struggle with loneliness. • Taking a survey on the internet is the same as on paper. • Washington had wooden dentures • Not cite • Cite (about.com) • Cite (an incorrect opinion—not fact) • Not cite (unless you have a source that backs you up) • Cite • Cite source of myth

  12. Components of a Citation • Author(s) • Last name(s) only for citations • Year of publication • Page number, if you are using a direct quote • If the document is not paged, give paragraph number (para. 5)

  13. One Author • First use: • Smith (1999) found that youth... • ...more likely to engage in substance use (Smith, 1999). • Second and subsequent use in same paragraph: • Smith also found that...... • However, Smith also found... • ...are at greater risk (Smith, 1999). • First in a new paragraph: • Smith (1999)...

  14. Two Authors • First use: • Nation and Heflinger (2006) define • ...exposed to risk factors (Nation & Hiflinger, 2006). • Subsequent use in same paragraph: • Nation and Heflinger explain.... • ...risk factors are compounded (Nation & Heflinger, 2006) • First use in a new paragraph: • Nation and Heflinger (2006)

  15. Three, Four, and Five Authors • First use: • De Kemp, Scholte, Overbeek, and Engels (2006) ... • ...related to increased delinquency (De Kemp, Scholte, Overbeek, & Engels, 2006) • Second use: • De Kemp et al. (2006)... • ...association with deviant peers (De Kemp et al., 2006) • Subsequent use in same paragraph: • De Kemp et al. found that.... • ...in youth (De Kemp et al., 2006). • First use in a new paragraph: • De Kemp et al. (2006)...

  16. Six or More Authors • First use: • Jones et al. (2003) examined.... • ...are more likely to see a difference (Jones et al., 2003) • Subsequent use in same paragraph: • Jones et al. found • ...greater understanding (Jones et al., 2006) • First use in a new paragraph: • Jones et al. (2003)

  17. Different Sources That Could Be Confused When Shortened • Jones, Jackson, Martin, Howard, and Simms (1999)  Jones et al. (1999) • Jones, Madison, Howard, and Brown (1999)  Jones et al. (1999) • Jones, Jackson, et al. (1999) • Jones, Madison, et al. (1999)

  18. More Than One Source • ... interactions between youth and their parents (De Kemp, Scholte, Overbeck, & Engles, 2006; Mount & Steinberg, 1995; Walker-Barnes & Mason, 2001; Walker-Barnes & Mason, 2004). • The order of authors in parenthetical citations is alphabetical (identical to the reference page).

  19. Secondary Sources • Citing a document implies that you HAVE READ the original work (APA, 2010) • Did you actually read the original reference? • Smith (1978) originally found that...is more likely (as cited in James & Andrews, 2001) • Don’t include Smith’s article on your reference page.

  20. Quotations • When quoting from a source, “if the quotation comprises fewer than 40, incorporate it into text and enclose with double quotation marks” (APA, 2010, p. 170). • Quotes in the middle of a sentence have (p. #) directly after the quote

  21. Quotations • Quotes with 40 or more words appear as an indented block. • The citation information follows the punctuation of the quote.

  22. Other Citation Hints • Articles don’t say anything—authors do. • Don’t say, The article found that… • Do say, Jones (2010) found • Don’t overload your reader with citations. You should only be presenting ideas that are relevant to your topic. • Practice…

  23. Practice 1 • Authors: • Seth D. Gosling • Orlando P. John • Kendra H. Craik • Robin Wright Robins • Year: 1998 • Situation: 1st parenthetical citation in paper (Gosling, John, Craik, & Robins, 1998)
