4. REFERENCE LIST
 Reference list should appear at the end of your
paper. It provides the information necessary for a
reader to locate and retrieve any source cited in the
body of the paper.
 References should begin on a new page separate
from the text of the essay; label this page
"References" centered at the top of the page (do
NOT bold, underline, or use quotation marks for
the title). All text should be double-spaced just like
the rest of essay.

6. Essential Information:
 The reference list is arranged alphabetically
by author.
 The format for a reference list depends on
the type of reference used.
 You must use the correct format for each
reference used.

7. Entries for the reference list vary because of the different
information they include. All, however, must follow an
established order for presenting information:
1. Authors (and editors)
2. Publication dates
3. Titles
4. Additional information
5. Facts of publication
6. Retrieval information

9. 1. Authors
Take names from the first page of an article or from
the title page of a book. Authors’ or editors’ names
are listed in the order in which they appear (not
alphabetical order), and initials are used instead of
first or middle names. All authors’ names are
inverted (last name first), not just the name of the
first author.

10. Single Author
Last name first, followed by author initials.
Berndt, T. J. (2002). Friendship quality and social
development. Current Directions in Psychological Science,
11, 7-10.

List by their last names and initials. Use the
ampersand instead of "and.“

across affective states: The hedonic contingency
hypothesis. Journal of Personality and Social Psychology,

12. Three to Seven Authors
List by last names and initials; commas separate
author names, while the last author name is
preceded again by ampersand.

whether it is high or low: The importance of stability of
self-esteem. Journal of Personality and Social Psychology,
65, 1190-1204.

13. More Than Seven Authors
List by last names and initials; commas separate author
names. After the sixth author's name, use an ellipses in
place of the author names. Then provide the final
author name. There should be no more than seven
names.

14. 2. Publication dates
For professional journals and books, include the publication
year in parentheses. For sources that use specific dates—
such as popular magazines, newspapers, television

15. 3. Titles
List titles completely, taking information from the first page

titles and subtitles, no matter how long they are.

and magazines, often in combination with the table of
contents.
 For books, use the first city listed on the title page
and provide a two-letter abbreviation for the state or

0Prefixes
0Names with prepositions
0Multiple works by the same author
0Single-author and multiple-author works
0Groups, institutions, or organizations as authors

52. 1. Letter-by-letter style
Alphabetize one letter at a time
E.g.
Baker, R. L. precedes Baker, W. S.
Our American Heritage comes before Our American
Legacy.

53. 2. “Nothing precedes
something”
The space that follows a name supersedes the letters
that follow.
E.g. Wood, T. S., precedes Woodman, K. F

54. 3.Prefixes
Prefixes are alphabetized as they appear, not as if they
appeared in full form
E.g. MacDonald, J. B., precedes McDonald, B. V.

55. 4. Names with prepositions
Names that incorporate prepositions are alphabetized
as if they were spelled closed
E.g. De Forest, A. M., precedes Denton, R. L.

56. 5. Multiple works by the same
author
Arrange selections in chronological order
E.g. Sparks, C. G. (2008) precedes Sparks, C. G. (2009)

57. 6. Single-author and multiple-author works
Single-author works precede multiple-author works
E.g.
Kelly, M. J., precedes Kelly, M. J., & Dorfmeyer, P. G.

58. 7. Groups, institutions, or organizations as authors
Alphabetize group, institutional, or
organizational authors by major words in their
completely spelled-out names (omitting a, an, or
the)
E.g. American Psychological Association precedes
Anderson, V. W.

59. 8. Authorless works
Authorless works are alphabetized by the first
significant words in their titles (omitting a, an, or the)
E.g. The price of poverty precedes Stewart, R. P.

60. 9. Numerals in titles
Numerals in titles are alphabetized as if they were
spelled out
E.g. “The 10 common errors of research” precedes
Twelve angry men.

61. APA documentation has two areas of
emphasis
0 The authors of source materials and
0 The year in which sources were published or
presented.
0 E.g. Smith (2005) reported; (Smith, 2005)

62. Patterns for in-text citations
0 An in-text citation (also called a parenthetical note)
corresponds to an entry in the reference list at the
end of the paper.
0 E.g.
Duenwald, M. (2004, January 6). Slim pickings: Looking
beyond ephedra.
In-text citation: (Duenwald, 2004).

63. Patterns for in-text citations
E.g.
Understanding Torres’ grid. (2003, March). [Chart]. Infoplease
almanac. Retrieved January 13, 2006, from
http://www.infoplease.com/
In-text citation: (“Understanding Torres’ Grid,” 2003)

64. Shortened Forms of Titles
• “When Teachers Don’t Make the Grade”
In-text citation “When Teachers”
=> Use initial words of the title.
• “A Long Day’s Journey into Night”
In-text citation “Long Day’s Journey”
⇒ Omit articles.

⇒ Make the short title brief but readable
0 APA Dictionary of Psychology

81. 4f.Quotations
Presenter : M.Sang

82. 4f.Quotations
When an author’s manner of expression
or her ideas or language are difficult to
summarize, quote the passage in your text.
To avoid plagiarism, reproduce quoted
material word for word, including exact
spelling and punctuation, separate the
material from your text, and prepare an
accurate citation.

83. a) Concerns About Quotations
0 Style. Is the style so distinctive that you cannot say the
same thing as well or as clearly in your own words?
• Vocabulary. Is the vocabulary technical and therefore
difficult to translate into your own words?
• Reputation. Is the author so well known or so
important that the quotation can lend authority to
your paper?
• Points of contention. Does the author’s material raise
doubts or questions or make points with which you
disagree?

84. b) Brief quotations (fewer than 40
words)
0 Appear within a normal paragraph, with the author’s
words enclosed in quotation marks.
0 Placed in parentheses, follows the closing quotation
mark, whether it is in the middle or at the end of a
sentence.
0 If the quotation ends the sentence, the sen-tence’s
period follows the closing parenthesis. The citation
includes the author’s name and the publication date ,
as well as a specific page reference p. or pp. (not
italicized)

85. Example :
0 The tacit assumption that intelligence isis at the heart
The tacit assumption that intelligence at the heart of
success has has been called into question: “The
of success been called into question: “The memory
and analyticalanalytical skills so central to intelligence
memory and skills so central to intelligence are
certainly important for for school and life success,
are certainly important school and life success, but
perhaps they they are not sufficient. Arguably,
but perhaps are not sufficient. Arguably, wisdom-
related skills are skills are as least as important or
wisdom-related at least at important or even more
important” (Sternberg, 2003, p. 147).
even more important” (p. 147).
0 Reference list entry : Sternberg, R. J. (2003). Wisdom,
intelligence, and creativity synthsized. Cambridge,
England: Cambridge University Press.

86. c) Long quotations (40 or more
words)
0 A quotation of 40 or more words is set off from a
normal para-graph in an indented block paragraph.
0 After an introductory statement, start the quotation
on a new line, indented five to seven spaces or ½ inch
(use the “Indent” feature to maintain the indentation
throughout the quotation).
0 Quotation marks do not appear at the opening and
closing of a block quotation.
0 Like the surrounding text, the quotation is double-
spaced.

87. d) Single Quotation Marks
0 To indicate an author’s use of quotation marks within
a brief quotation (which is set off by double quotation
marks), change the source’s punctuation to single
quotation marks.
“….”  ‘….’

88. Example :
0 Young (2005) stressed the cautionary and even alarmist
nature of current approaches to health management. He
asserted, “Each year as many as 40,000 to 50,000 articles
are published where the term risk appears in the titles
and
abstracts—this has led some observers to refer to a ‘risk
epidemic’ in the medical literature” (p. 177).
