APA Citations References & In-Text

The Basics What are citations? A way for the researcher to credit others for information and ideas that are not his or her own A way to avoid plagiarism and maintain credibility What types of citations are there? For APA, there are References citations and parenthetical (AKA in-text) citations

References APA term for the resources/texts you used in your research and included in your paper Very specific formatting required Depending on genre of text you used, you must include certain information about it in the correct order, in the correct format Example:

Parenthetical/In-text Citations In addition to the References, parenthetical/in-text citations are also required to avoid plagiarism These citations are found within the paper itself At the end of each sentence that includes a fact, idea, paraphrase, plot reference, etc. from a source Before the period in the sentence Usually consists of author last name, year, page number Example: (Wlock, 2013, p. 201). You MUST have these to get ANY credit on a paper. Otherwise, it’s plagiarism—even with a References page.

Why in-text/parenthetical citation? Relays to the reader where each point of information originates Can direct readers to the sources on References for their further reading/education Supports your credibility as a researcher Supports your thesis and therefore your analysis Note: Your thesis statement will address the answer to your research essential question.

What do I do after finding sources? Reminder: Access formatting help: Purdue OWL (APA) Locate general pages on both References and in-text citation for formatting basics Access the information by genre for each of your sources to help perfect entries in References Create References as soon as you know you will use that source (Before taking notes!) When you do take notes, write down the page number that you found each fact from (you will need this for your in-text citations)
