The purpose of citations is twofold: to give credit to others for their ideas and to allow your reader to follow up and learn more about the topic if desired. Your in-text citations provide basic information about your source; you will provide more detailed information for each source you cite in text in the references section. (Refer to your <a href=\"http:\/\/lgdata.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/docs\/766\/161187\/APA_Style-6th_ed-Oct2013.pdf\">JIBC APA Reference Guide<\/a> for guidance on compose citation\u2014for quotes or paraphrasing\u2014under the referencing example for each type of source.)\n\nIn-text citations must provide the name of the author or authors and the year the source was published. (When a given source does not list an individual author, you may provide the source title or the name of the organization that published the material instead.) When directly quoting a source, you must include the page number where the quote appears in the work being cited. This information may be included within the sentence or in a parenthetical reference at the end of the sentence, as in these examples.\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">Epstein (2010) points out that \u201cjunk food cannot be considered addictive in the same way that we think of psychoactive drugs as addictive\u201d (p. 137).<\/div>\nHere, the writer names the source author when introducing the quote and provides the publication date in parentheses after the author\u2019s name.

As long as you have included the essential information, you can use the option that works best for that particular sentence and source.\n\nCiting a book with a single author is usually straightforward. Of course, your research may require that you cite many other types of sources, such as books or articles with more than one author or sources with no individual author listed. You may also need to cite sources available in both print and online and nonprint sources, such as websites and personal interviews.\n<div class=\"textbox textbox--exercises\"><header class=\"textbox__header\">\n<p class=\"textbox__title\">Self-Practice Exercise 9.3<\/p>\n\n<\/header>\n<div class=\"textbox__content\">\n\n[h5p id=\"125\"]\n<div class=\"pdf\">\n\n<strong>H5P: <\/strong>Noticing Errors in Quotations\n\nExamples taken from: Writing Commons.

Read them through quickly to get a sense of what is covered, and then refer to them again as needed.\n<h2>Print Sources<\/h2>\nThis section covers books, articles, and other print sources with one or more authors.\n<h2>A Work by One Author<\/h2>\nFor a print work with one author, follow the guidelines provided in\u00a0the <a href=\"http:\/\/lgdata.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/docs\/766\/161187\/APA_Style-6th_ed-Oct2013.pdf\">JIBC APA Reference Guide<\/a>. Always include the author\u2019s name and year of publication. Include a page reference whenever you quote a source directly. (See also the guidelines presented earlier in this chapter about when to include a page reference for paraphrased material.)\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n\nChang (2008) emphasized that \u201cengaging in weight-bearing exercise consistently is one of the single best things women can do to maintain good health\u201d (p. 49).\n\nChang (2008) pointed out that weight-bearing exercise has many potential benefits for women.\n\n<\/div>\n<h2>Two or More Works by the Same Author<\/h2>\nAt times, your research may include multiple works by the same author. If the works were published in different years, a standard in-text citation will serve to distinguish them. If you are citing multiple works by the same author published in the same year, include a lowercase letter immediately after the year. Rank the sources in the order they appear in your references section. The source listed first should include an \u00a0<em>a<\/em>\u00a0 after the year, the source listed second should include a \u00a0<em>b<\/em>, and so on.\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">Rodriguez (2009a) criticized the nutrition supplement industry for making unsubstantiated and sometimes misleading claims about the benefits of taking supplements. Additionally, he warned that consumers frequently do not realize the potential harmful effects of some popular supplements (Rodriguez, 2009b).<\/div>\nThe author\u2019s last name is again mentioned in the final citation despite it being used in the attributive tag. In this case, this is acceptable because this is referring to a different source written by the same person.\n<h2>Works by Authors with the Same Last Name<\/h2>\nIf you are citing works by different authors with the same last name, include each author\u2019s initials in your citation, whether you mention them in the text or in parentheses. Do so even if the publication years are different.\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n\nJ. S. Williams (2007) believes nutritional supplements can be a useful part of some diet and fitness regimens. C. D. Williams (2008), however, believes these supplements are overrated.\n\nAccording to two leading researchers, the rate of childhood obesity exceeds the rate of adult obesity (K. Connelley, 2010; O. Connelley, 2010).\n\nStudies from both A. Wright (2007) and C. A. Wright (2008) confirm the benefits of diet and exercise on weight loss.\n\n<\/div>\n<h2>A Work by Two Authors<\/h2>\nWhen two authors are listed for a given work, include both authors\u2019 names each time you cite the work. If you are citing their names in parentheses, use an ampersand (&amp;) between them. (Use the word\u00a0<em>and<\/em>, however, if the names appear in your sentence.)\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n\nAs Garrison and Gould (2010) pointed out, \u201cIt is never too late to quit smoking. The health risks associated with this habit begin to decrease soon after a smoker quits\u201d (p. 101).\n\nAs doctors continue to point out, \u201cIt is never too late to quit smoking. The health risks associated with this habit begin to decrease soon after a smoker quits\u201d (Garrison &amp; Gould, 2010, p. 101).\n\n<\/div>\n<h2>A Work by Three to Five Authors<\/h2>\nIf the work you are citing has three to five authors, list all the authors\u2019 names the first time you cite the source. In subsequent citations, use the first author\u2019s name followed by the abbreviation\u00a0<em>et\u00a0al.<\/em>\u00a0(<em>Et al.<\/em>\u00a0is short for\u00a0<em>et alia<\/em>, the Latin phrase for \u201cand others.\u201d)\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n\nHenderson, Davidian, and Degler (2010) surveyed 350 smokers aged 18 to 30.One survey, conducted among 350 smokers aged 18 to 30, included a detailed questionnaire about participants\u2019 motivations for smoking (Henderson, Davidian, &amp; Degler, 2010).\n\nNote that these examples follow the same ampersand conventions as sources with two authors. Again, use the ampersand only when listing authors\u2019 names in parentheses.\n\nAs Henderson et al. (2010) found, some young people, particularly young women, use smoking as a means of appetite suppression.\n\nDisturbingly, some young women use smoking as a means of appetite suppression (Henderson et al., 2010).\n\n<\/div>\nNote how the phrase\u00a0<em>et al.<\/em>\u00a0is punctuated. There is no period comes after\u00a0<em>et<\/em>, but there is one with \u00a0<em>al.<\/em>\u00a0 because it is an abbreviation for a longer Latin word. In parenthetical references, include a comma after\u00a0<em>et al.<\/em>\u00a0but not before. Remember this rule by mentally translating the citation to English: \u201cHenderson and others, 2010.\u201d\n<h2>A Work by Six or More Authors<\/h2>\nIf the work you are citing has six or more authors, list only the first author\u2019s name, followed by\u00a0<em>et al.<\/em>, in your in-text citations. The other authors\u2019 names will be listed in your references section.\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">Researchers have found that outreach work with young people has helped reduce tobacco use in some communities (Costello et al., 2007).<\/div>\n<h2>A Work Authored by an Organization<\/h2>\nWhen citing a work that has no individual author but is published by an organization, use the organization\u2019s name in place of the author\u2019s name. Lengthy organization names with well-known abbreviations can be abbreviated. In your first citation, use the full name, followed by the abbreviation in square brackets. Subsequent citations may use the abbreviation only.\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n\nIt is possible for a patient to have a small stroke without even realizing it (American Heart Association [AHA], 2010).\n\nAnother cause for concern is that even if patients realize that they have had a stroke and need medical attention, they may not know which nearby facilities are best equipped to treat them (AHA, 2010).\n\n<\/div>\n<h2>A Work with No Listed Author<\/h2>\nIf no author is listed and the source cannot be attributed to an organization, use the title in place of the author\u2019s name. You may use the full title in your sentence or use the first few words\u2014enough to convey the key ideas\u2014in a parenthetical reference. Follow standard conventions for using italics or quotations marks with titles:\n<ul>\n \t<li>Use italics for titles of books or reports.<\/li>\n \t<li>Use quotation marks for titles of articles or chapters.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n\n\u201cLiving With Diabetes: Managing Your Health\u201d (2009) recommends regular exercise for patients with diabetes.Regular exercise can benefit patients with diabetes (\u201cLiving with Diabetes,\u201d 2009).\n\n<\/div>\n<h2>A Work Cited within Another Work<\/h2>\nTo cite a source that is referred to within another secondary source, name the first source in your sentence. Then, in parentheses, use the phrase\u00a0<em>as cited in <\/em>and the name of the second source author.\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n\nRosenhan\u2019s study \u201cOn Being Sane in Insane Places\u201d (as cited in Spitzer, 1975) found that psychiatrists diagnosed schizophrenia in people who claimed to be experiencing hallucinations and sought treatment\u2014even though these patients were, in fact, imposters.\n\n<\/div>\n<h2>Two or More Works Cited in One Reference<\/h2>\nAt times, you may provide more than one citation in a parenthetical reference, such as when you are discussing related works or studies with similar results. List the citations in the same order they appear in your references section, and separate the citations with a semicolon.\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n\nSome researchers have found serious flaws in the way Rosenhan\u2019s study was conducted (Dawes, 2001; Spitzer, 1975).Both of these researchers authored works that support the point being made in this sentence, so it makes sense to include both in the same citation.\n\n<\/div>\n<h2>A Famous Text Published in Multiple Editions<\/h2>\nIn some cases, you may need to cite an extremely well-known work that has been repeatedly republished or translated. Many works of literature and sacred texts, as well as some classic nonfiction texts, fall into this category. For these works, the original date of publication may be unavailable. If so, include the year of publication or translation for your edition. Refer to specific parts or chapters if you need to cite a specific section. Discuss with your instructor whether he or she would like you to cite page numbers in this particular instance.\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n\nIn\u00a0<em>New Introductory Lectures on Psycho Analysis<\/em>, Freud explains that the \u201cmanifest content\u201d of a dream\u2014what literally takes place\u2014is separate from its \u201clatent content,\u201d or hidden meaning (trans. 1965, lecture XXIX).\n\n<\/div>\nIn this example, the student is citing a classic work of psychology, originally written in German and later translated to English. Since the book is a collection of Freud\u2019s lectures, the student cites the lecture number rather than a page number.\n<h2>An Introduction, Foreword, Preface, or Afterword<\/h2>\nTo cite an introduction, foreword, preface, or afterword, cite the author of the material and the year, following the same format used for other print materials.\n<h2>Electronic Sources<\/h2>\nWhenever possible, cite electronic sources as you would print sources, using the author, the date, and where appropriate, a page number. For some types of electronic sources\u2014for instance, many online articles\u2014this information is easily available. Other times, however, you will need to vary the format to reflect the differences in online media.\n<h2>Online Sources without Page Numbers<\/h2>\nIf an online source has no page numbers but you want to refer to a specific portion of the source, try to locate other information you can use to direct your reader to the information cited. Some websites number paragraphs within published articles; if so, include the paragraph number in your citation. Precede the paragraph number with the abbreviation for the word\u00a0<em>paragraph<\/em>\u00a0and the number of the paragraph (e.g., para. 4).\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">As researchers have explained, \u201cIncorporating fresh fruits and vegetables into one\u2019s diet can be a challenge for residents of areas where there are few or no easily accessible supermarkets\u201d (Smith &amp; Jones, 2006, para. 4).<\/div>\nEven if a source does not have numbered paragraphs, it is likely to have headings that organize the content. In your citation, name the section where your cited information appears, followed by a paragraph number.\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n\nThe American Lung Association (2010) noted, \u201cAfter smoking, radon exposure is the second most common cause of lung cancer\u201d (What Causes Lung Cancer? section, para. 2).\n\n<\/div>\nThis student cited the appropriate section heading within the website and then counted to find the specific paragraph where the cited information was located.\n\nIf an online source has no listed author and no date, use the source title and the abbreviation\u00a0<em>n.d.<\/em>\u00a0in your parenthetical reference.\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n\nIt has been suggested that electromagnetic radiation from cellular telephones may pose a risk for developing certain cancers (\u201cCell Phones and Cancer,\u201d n.d.).\n\n<\/div>\n<h2>Personal Communication<\/h2>\nFor personal communications, such as interviews, letters, and emails, cite the name of the person involved, clarify that the material is from a personal communication, and provide the specific date the communication took place. Note that while in-text citations correspond to entries in the references section, personal communications are an exception to this rule. They are cited only in the body text of your paper.\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n\nJ. H. Yardley, M.D., believes that available information on the relationship between cell phone use and cancer is inconclusive (personal communication, May 1, 2009).\n\n<\/div>\n<h2>Writing at Work<\/h2>\nAt work, you may sometimes share information resources with your colleagues by photocopying an interesting article or forwarding the URL of a useful website. Your goal in these situations and in formal research citations is the same: to provide enough information to help your professional peers locate and follow up on potentially useful information. Provide as much specific information as possible to achieve that goal, and consult with your supervisor or professor as to what specific style he or she may prefer.\n<div class=\"textbox textbox--key-takeaways\"><header class=\"textbox__header\">\n<p class=\"textbox__title\">Key Takeaways<\/p>\n\n<\/header>\n<div class=\"textbox__content\">\n<ul>\n \t<li>In APA papers, in-text citations include the name of the author(s) and the year of publication whenever possible.<\/li>\n \t<li>Page numbers are always included when citing quotations. It is optional to include page numbers when citing paraphrased material; however, this should be done when citing a specific portion of a work.<\/li>\n \t<li>When citing online sources, provide the same information used for print sources if it is available.<\/li>\n \t<li>When a source does not provide information that usually appears in a citation, in-text citations should provide readers with alternative information that would help them locate the source material.

Read them through quickly to get a sense of what is covered, and then refer to them again as needed.<\/p>\n<h2>Print Sources<\/h2>\n<p>This section covers books, articles, and other print sources with one or more authors.<\/p>\n<h2>A Work by One Author<\/h2>\n<p>For a print work with one author, follow the guidelines provided in\u00a0the <a href=\"http:\/\/lgdata.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/docs\/766\/161187\/APA_Style-6th_ed-Oct2013.pdf\">JIBC APA Reference Guide<\/a>. Always include the author\u2019s name and year of publication. Include a page reference whenever you quote a source directly. (See also the guidelines presented earlier in this chapter about when to include a page reference for paraphrased material.)<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n<p>Chang (2008) emphasized that \u201cengaging in weight-bearing exercise consistently is one of the single best things women can do to maintain good health\u201d (p. 49).<\/p>\n<p>Chang (2008) pointed out that weight-bearing exercise has many potential benefits for women.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Two or More Works by the Same Author<\/h2>\n<p>At times, your research may include multiple works by the same author. If the works were published in different years, a standard in-text citation will serve to distinguish them. If you are citing multiple works by the same author published in the same year, include a lowercase letter immediately after the year. Rank the sources in the order they appear in your references section. The source listed first should include an \u00a0<em>a<\/em>\u00a0 after the year, the source listed second should include a \u00a0<em>b<\/em>, and so on.<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">Rodriguez (2009a) criticized the nutrition supplement industry for making unsubstantiated and sometimes misleading claims about the benefits of taking supplements. Additionally, he warned that consumers frequently do not realize the potential harmful effects of some popular supplements (Rodriguez, 2009b).<\/div>\n<p>The author\u2019s last name is again mentioned in the final citation despite it being used in the attributive tag. In this case, this is acceptable because this is referring to a different source written by the same person.<\/p>\n<h2>Works by Authors with the Same Last Name<\/h2>\n<p>If you are citing works by different authors with the same last name, include each author\u2019s initials in your citation, whether you mention them in the text or in parentheses. Do so even if the publication years are different.<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n<p>J. S. Williams (2007) believes nutritional supplements can be a useful part of some diet and fitness regimens. C. D. Williams (2008), however, believes these supplements are overrated.<\/p>\n<p>According to two leading researchers, the rate of childhood obesity exceeds the rate of adult obesity (K. Connelley, 2010; O. Connelley, 2010).<\/p>\n<p>Studies from both A. Wright (2007) and C. A. Wright (2008) confirm the benefits of diet and exercise on weight loss.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>A Work by Two Authors<\/h2>\n<p>When two authors are listed for a given work, include both authors\u2019 names each time you cite the work. If you are citing their names in parentheses, use an ampersand (&amp;) between them. (Use the word\u00a0<em>and<\/em>, however, if the names appear in your sentence.)<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n<p>As Garrison and Gould (2010) pointed out, \u201cIt is never too late to quit smoking. The health risks associated with this habit begin to decrease soon after a smoker quits\u201d (p. 101).<\/p>\n<p>As doctors continue to point out, \u201cIt is never too late to quit smoking. The health risks associated with this habit begin to decrease soon after a smoker quits\u201d (Garrison &amp; Gould, 2010, p. 101).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>A Work by Three to Five Authors<\/h2>\n<p>If the work you are citing has three to five authors, list all the authors\u2019 names the first time you cite the source. In subsequent citations, use the first author\u2019s name followed by the abbreviation\u00a0<em>et\u00a0al.<\/em>\u00a0(<em>Et al.<\/em>\u00a0is short for\u00a0<em>et alia<\/em>, the Latin phrase for \u201cand others.\u201d)<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n<p>Henderson, Davidian, and Degler (2010) surveyed 350 smokers aged 18 to 30.One survey, conducted among 350 smokers aged 18 to 30, included a detailed questionnaire about participants\u2019 motivations for smoking (Henderson, Davidian, &amp; Degler, 2010).<\/p>\n<p>Note that these examples follow the same ampersand conventions as sources with two authors. Again, use the ampersand only when listing authors\u2019 names in parentheses.<\/p>\n<p>As Henderson et al. (2010) found, some young people, particularly young women, use smoking as a means of appetite suppression.<\/p>\n<p>Disturbingly, some young women use smoking as a means of appetite suppression (Henderson et al., 2010).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Note how the phrase\u00a0<em>et al.<\/em>\u00a0is punctuated. There is no period comes after\u00a0<em>et<\/em>, but there is one with \u00a0<em>al.<\/em>\u00a0 because it is an abbreviation for a longer Latin word. In parenthetical references, include a comma after\u00a0<em>et al.<\/em>\u00a0but not before. Remember this rule by mentally translating the citation to English: \u201cHenderson and others, 2010.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>A Work by Six or More Authors<\/h2>\n<p>If the work you are citing has six or more authors, list only the first author\u2019s name, followed by\u00a0<em>et al.<\/em>, in your in-text citations. The other authors\u2019 names will be listed in your references section.<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">Researchers have found that outreach work with young people has helped reduce tobacco use in some communities (Costello et al., 2007).<\/div>\n<h2>A Work Authored by an Organization<\/h2>\n<p>When citing a work that has no individual author but is published by an organization, use the organization\u2019s name in place of the author\u2019s name. Lengthy organization names with well-known abbreviations can be abbreviated. In your first citation, use the full name, followed by the abbreviation in square brackets. Subsequent citations may use the abbreviation only.<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n<p>It is possible for a patient to have a small stroke without even realizing it (American Heart Association [AHA], 2010).<\/p>\n<p>Another cause for concern is that even if patients realize that they have had a stroke and need medical attention, they may not know which nearby facilities are best equipped to treat them (AHA, 2010).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>A Work with No Listed Author<\/h2>\n<p>If no author is listed and the source cannot be attributed to an organization, use the title in place of the author\u2019s name. You may use the full title in your sentence or use the first few words\u2014enough to convey the key ideas\u2014in a parenthetical reference. Follow standard conventions for using italics or quotations marks with titles:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use italics for titles of books or reports.<\/li>\n<li>Use quotation marks for titles of articles or chapters.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n<p>\u201cLiving With Diabetes: Managing Your Health\u201d (2009) recommends regular exercise for patients with diabetes.Regular exercise can benefit patients with diabetes (\u201cLiving with Diabetes,\u201d 2009).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>A Work Cited within Another Work<\/h2>\n<p>To cite a source that is referred to within another secondary source, name the first source in your sentence. Then, in parentheses, use the phrase\u00a0<em>as cited in <\/em>and the name of the second source author.<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n<p>Rosenhan\u2019s study \u201cOn Being Sane in Insane Places\u201d (as cited in Spitzer, 1975) found that psychiatrists diagnosed schizophrenia in people who claimed to be experiencing hallucinations and sought treatment\u2014even though these patients were, in fact, imposters.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Two or More Works Cited in One Reference<\/h2>\n<p>At times, you may provide more than one citation in a parenthetical reference, such as when you are discussing related works or studies with similar results. List the citations in the same order they appear in your references section, and separate the citations with a semicolon.<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n<p>Some researchers have found serious flaws in the way Rosenhan\u2019s study was conducted (Dawes, 2001; Spitzer, 1975).Both of these researchers authored works that support the point being made in this sentence, so it makes sense to include both in the same citation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>A Famous Text Published in Multiple Editions<\/h2>\n<p>In some cases, you may need to cite an extremely well-known work that has been repeatedly republished or translated. Many works of literature and sacred texts, as well as some classic nonfiction texts, fall into this category. For these works, the original date of publication may be unavailable. If so, include the year of publication or translation for your edition. Refer to specific parts or chapters if you need to cite a specific section. Discuss with your instructor whether he or she would like you to cite page numbers in this particular instance.<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n<p>In\u00a0<em>New Introductory Lectures on Psycho Analysis<\/em>, Freud explains that the \u201cmanifest content\u201d of a dream\u2014what literally takes place\u2014is separate from its \u201clatent content,\u201d or hidden meaning (trans. 1965, lecture XXIX).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>In this example, the student is citing a classic work of psychology, originally written in German and later translated to English. Since the book is a collection of Freud\u2019s lectures, the student cites the lecture number rather than a page number.<\/p>\n<h2>An Introduction, Foreword, Preface, or Afterword<\/h2>\n<p>To cite an introduction, foreword, preface, or afterword, cite the author of the material and the year, following the same format used for other print materials.<\/p>\n<h2>Electronic Sources<\/h2>\n<p>Whenever possible, cite electronic sources as you would print sources, using the author, the date, and where appropriate, a page number. For some types of electronic sources\u2014for instance, many online articles\u2014this information is easily available. Other times, however, you will need to vary the format to reflect the differences in online media.<\/p>\n<h2>Online Sources without Page Numbers<\/h2>\n<p>If an online source has no page numbers but you want to refer to a specific portion of the source, try to locate other information you can use to direct your reader to the information cited. Some websites number paragraphs within published articles; if so, include the paragraph number in your citation. Precede the paragraph number with the abbreviation for the word\u00a0<em>paragraph<\/em>\u00a0and the number of the paragraph (e.g., para. 4).<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">As researchers have explained, \u201cIncorporating fresh fruits and vegetables into one\u2019s diet can be a challenge for residents of areas where there are few or no easily accessible supermarkets\u201d (Smith &amp; Jones, 2006, para. 4).<\/div>\n<p>Even if a source does not have numbered paragraphs, it is likely to have headings that organize the content. In your citation, name the section where your cited information appears, followed by a paragraph number.<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n<p>The American Lung Association (2010) noted, \u201cAfter smoking, radon exposure is the second most common cause of lung cancer\u201d (What Causes Lung Cancer? section, para. 2).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>This student cited the appropriate section heading within the website and then counted to find the specific paragraph where the cited information was located.<\/p>\n<p>If an online source has no listed author and no date, use the source title and the abbreviation\u00a0<em>n.d.<\/em>\u00a0in your parenthetical reference.<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n<p>It has been suggested that electromagnetic radiation from cellular telephones may pose a risk for developing certain cancers (\u201cCell Phones and Cancer,\u201d n.d.).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Personal Communication<\/h2>\n<p>For personal communications, such as interviews, letters, and emails, cite the name of the person involved, clarify that the material is from a personal communication, and provide the specific date the communication took place. Note that while in-text citations correspond to entries in the references section, personal communications are an exception to this rule. They are cited only in the body text of your paper.<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox shaded\">\n<p>J. H. Yardley, M.D., believes that available information on the relationship between cell phone use and cancer is inconclusive (personal communication, May 1, 2009).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Writing at Work<\/h2>\n<p>At work, you may sometimes share information resources with your colleagues by photocopying an interesting article or forwarding the URL of a useful website. Your goal in these situations and in formal research citations is the same: to provide enough information to help your professional peers locate and follow up on potentially useful information. Provide as much specific information as possible to achieve that goal, and consult with your supervisor or professor as to what specific style he or she may prefer.<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox textbox--key-takeaways\">\n<header class=\"textbox__header\">\n<p class=\"textbox__title\">Key Takeaways<\/p>\n<\/header>\n<div class=\"textbox__content\">\n<ul>\n<li>In APA papers, in-text citations include the name of the author(s) and the year of publication whenever possible.<\/li>\n<li>Page numbers are always included when citing quotations. It is optional to include page numbers when citing paraphrased material; however, this should be done when citing a specific portion of a work.<\/li>\n<li>When citing online sources, provide the same information used for print sources if it is available.<\/li>\n<li>When a source does not provide information that usually appears in a citation, in-text citations should provide readers with alternative information that would help them locate the source material. This may include the title of the source, section headings and paragraph numbers for websites, and so forth.<\/li>\n<li>When writing a paper, discuss with your instructor what particular standards you should follow.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":90,"menu_order":5,"template":"","meta":{"pb_show_title":"on","pb_short_title":"","pb_subtitle":"","pb_authors":[],"pb_section_license":"cc-by-nc-sa"},"chapter-type":[],"contributor":[],"license":[57],"class_list":["post-144","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry","license-cc-by-nc-sa"],"part":136,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/opentextbc.ca\/writingforsuccessh5p\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/144","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/opentextbc.ca\/writingforsuccessh5p\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/opentextbc.ca\/writingforsuccessh5p\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/opentextbc.ca\/writingforsuccessh5p\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/90"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/opentextbc.ca\/writingforsuccessh5p\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/144\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":216,"href":"https:\/\/opentextbc.ca\/writingforsuccessh5p\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/144\/revisions\/216"}],"part":[{"href":"https:\/\/opentextbc.ca\/writingforsuccessh5p\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/parts\/136"}],"metadata":[{"href":"https:\/\/opentextbc.ca\/writingforsuccessh5p\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/144\/metadata\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/opentextbc.ca\/writingforsuccessh5p\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=144"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"chapter-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/opentextbc.ca\/writingforsuccessh5p\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapter-type?post=144"},{"taxonomy":"contributor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/opentextbc.ca\/writingforsuccessh5p\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/contributor?post=144"},{"taxonomy":"license","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/opentextbc.ca\/writingforsuccessh5p\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/license?post=144"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
