Transcript: Dominating the art of citing APA (American Psychological Association) style is the most commonly used to cite sources within the social sciences. (Angelini et al., 2010) References: Articles in the periodicals What does APA mean? APA dictates that authors are named: Last name, then initials. Publication year (which goes in parentheses) followed by a period. The title of the article is in sentence-case, which means that only the first word and proper nouns are capitalized. The periodical title is run, and is followed by the volume number which is also italicized. If a DOI has been assigned to the article, you should include it after the page number (In the case that a DOI is no assigned and you are using an online periodical, include the URL). APA citation

Transcript: Short Quotation: black ink 1" margin double spaced Times New Roman or Arial font - 12 point. A good site will identify the author and provide contact information Content should be verifiable in other scholarly publications/sites Websites from a university, government agency, or major institution may have more reliable information (these domains may end with .edu, .org, or .gov) than a private individual (personal URL’S may contain a ~ tilde) Be aware that some websites are disguised advertisements or personal opinion pages Examine the information: is it original, or just a collection of links on a related topic. APA FORMAT Is the resource formatted according to APA format? Are the resources scholarly, academic works? Resources more than 5 years old may no longer be accurate Resources older than 10 years should not be used It may be a primary source, a secondary source, an opinion paper, a reaction paper, an essay, a research report, or one of many other formats. Look for clear, descriptive text, accurate mechanics, and logical arrangement of information EVALUATING CONTENT PAPER AND GENERAL FORMAT 8" page header END NOTES/FOOT NOTES According to Walker (2001), “Children who played team sports, either in school or as extra-curricular activities, showed greater problem-solving skills that their peers who did not participate in team sports” (p. 11). Running head and then a short form of your title (50 characters or less, all capitals) 8x11 white paper provide an explanation for a point use superscript number after idea to identify citation for each footnote on separate page titled "footnotes" indent five spaces before each footnotes numerical order at the end of the essay/paper Who is the target audience? Can you identify bias? Avoid material that presents a stereotypical or prejudiced view toward a certain group of people, is discriminatory, or ethnocentric. Be cautious about using materials that contain inappropriate language, or ideas that are not supported by a range of resources. Does the information confirm or contradict other resources? Was the content generated in a fair and ethical way? REFERENCE LIST TITLE PAGE EVALUATING FORMAT page header is the first two or three word of your title, five spaces, and the page number. ABSTRACT by hayley currier MAIN BODY AND TYPES OF CITATIONS EVALUATING ELECTRONIC RESOURCES types of citations Running Head: BLAH BLAH BLAH EVALUATING AUTHORS Long Quotation: Each entry is treated as separate entry Is organized alphabetically by author's last name no matter what the genre For each entry, start against the left margin. Double space, but after the first line, indent five spaces from the left margin for the rest of the citation. main text goes here. Who is the author? Is the author identified? Is the author qualified as an expert on your topic? Is the author affiliated with a specific organization or school? Check the title page, acknowledgments, and preface for this information. Stay away from a resource that does not identify an author, editor, or organization that is responsible for the content. Question the value of any affiliated or sponsoring authority.

In particular, both girls and boys who played competitive sports such as hockey and basketball demonstrated much more sophisticated reasoning and negotiation skills than their peers. (p. 11)

Transcript: What's the same? What is it? Intext Citations On a new page you would start your abstract. You would start this page by centering the world "Abstract," and then write a 150-250 word paragraph. This should not be indented. When referring to an idea but not directly quoting, provide author's last name and the year of publication, for example, (Jones, 1998). o When directly quoting, provide author, year of publication, and the page number preceded by “p.”. Introduce the quotation with a signal phrase: Results Discussion Conclusions A lot, but it's okay we'll work on it together. Step by step. There are four main parts of an APA paper: 1. Title Page 2. Abstract 3. Main Body 4. References. Abstract According to Jones (1998), "Students often had difficulty using APA style, especially when it was their first time" (p. 199). o Without a signal phrase: She stated, "Students often had difficulty using APA style" (Jones, 1998, p. 199), APA Format Main Body There are a few similarities and differences. Procedure Participants Materials ...what's different? Double spaced Hanging indent Alphabetical Order Title Page The title page will take the place of your header. On your title page you will include the following: Your Title First M. Last Name Institution Name Date Due Also, instead of having your last name on the top right hand corner you will have your title at the top left of each page of your essay. This will be in all caps. Only the title page will have "running head:" and then your title after it. APA stands for the American Psychological Association. Mostly used for social sciences. There are a few similarities and difference between APA and MLA Some examples are: Easiest thing to do is use a citation creator and double check (just like for MLA) Your abstract should address ALL of the following items: your research topic research questions participants methods results data analysis and conclusions This is an example for a book. Just like MLA you need to cite your sources. Only instead of a "Works Cited" page it is called a "Reference Page." Similarities References Differences Your headings would vary depending on what your paper is about. The Main Body of your paper should also be double spaced and follow the same formatting as your abstract. The main difference between MLA and APA is that APA has headers. These headers separate your paper into different sections. The order and requirements Must cite all sources (both in text and at the end) Paper is double spaced Citations are listed alphabetically Smoothly integrated quotes. Times New Roman, 12pt font, and 1" margins Author. (Date of publication). Italicized title. Place of publication: Publishing company.

Transcript: What is APA? APA is one of many referencing styles used in academic writing. APA stands for American Psychological Association. The Association outlines the style in the Publication manual of the American Psychological Association [APA] (6th ed.). Indicating within your assignment the sources of the information you have used to write your assignment. This demonstrates support for your ideas, arguments and views. Sometimes this is referred to as: citing in text, in text citations or text citations FIRST SECOND The second part to referencing is the construction of a reference list. The reference list shows the complete details of everything you cited and appears in an alphabetical list on a separate page, at the end of your assignment. Water is a necessary part of every person’s diet and of all the nutrients a body needs to function, it requires more water each day than any other nutrient (Whitney & Rolfes, 2011). Even though you have put someone else’s ideas or information in your own words (i.e. paraphrased), you still need to show where the original idea or information came from. This is all part of the academic writing process. When citing in text within an assignment, use the author/s (or editor/s) last name followed by the year of publication. Example for REFERENCE LIST Talty, S. (2009). The illustrious dead: The terrifying story of how typhus killed Napoleon's greatest army. New York, NY: Crown. How to write reference list? Author: Talty, S. Begin with last name first, abbreviate first and middle names (if applicable). End with a period. Year of Publication: (2009). In parentheses, list the year of publication, which appears on the title page or the title page verso (back side of title page). Follow the parentheses with a period. Title & subtitle of the book: The illustrious dead: The terrifying story of how typhus killed Napoleon's greatest army. The title and subtitle are separated by a colon. Capitalize only the first word of the title and subtitle and all proper nouns or names. Italicize the title and end with a period. Place of publication: New York, NY: List the city and state of the publisher's location. Use the standard postal abbreviations for states. For publishers outside the United States list the city and country. Separate place from publisher with a colon. If more than one city is given, use the first city listed or, if specified, the name of the publisher's home office. Separate from publisher with a colon. Ex. = Duluth, MN: Publisher: Crown. Shorten publisher's name to most concise form. End the citation with a period. 6TH EDITION There are two main parts to referencing: Example for citations: (parenthetical or text citations) BY: Saji Aia Mallari THANK YOU FOR LISTENING :) APA FORMAT

When referencing whole books: Italicize the entire title. Capitalize the first letter of each sentence in the title. If the book was found electronically, write the souce of the book in square brackets after the title. Ex: [Google Books] Publication Data Includes: Volume Number Issue Number in parenthesis. Page number(s) All of these elements, except the page number, should be italicized. The reference list should be formatted using the hanging indent paragraph style.
