Demystifying APA Citations

Two Helpful Tips

  • Why? Connects to your reference page!

Let's Stay Together!

• Narrative citation = author's last name in the sentence

• Parenthetical citation = all information in parentheses

Correct Language

Citations: Basics

Whenever you use a source, you need to include:

• author's last name and date of publication

• for quotations, provide a page number as well

​

​Citations help readers locate the cited source in the references section of the paper.

• Use n.d. where you would normally put the date

No Date

• Note: Check to see if the author is an organization

• Use a shortened version of the title where you'd use the author's last name

  • For articles or chapters, use quotation marks

No Author

When Information is Missing...

No Title

• Put a description of the item in [square brackets] where you'd normally put the title

Multiple Choice

Select the statement that is true for APA formatted citations.

• If no date is listed, write "n.d." to indicate no date was provided.

• If no author is listed, then a citation does not need to be included in your paper.

• If you are using an online source, you can just give the URL for the citation.

Always list authors in the order they are listed in the source.
