The Smucker Learning Center Giving Credit to Your Sources: Using APA Style © Mary Tohill The University of Akron Wayne College The Smucker Learning Center

Citing Your Sources Means telling your readers where the information came from Is a courtesy to the original authors Is a courtesy to your readers

Not Citing your Sources Is called plagiarism Is a form of dishonesty Can bring severe penalties

As You Research Consult the handout or the APA manual to see what info you need Make copies of the article from the journal, magazine, newspaper, etc Write the necessary publication info and page number on the copies

When to Cite a Source Always – when you quote directly When the information is not common knowledge Whenever you quote, paraphrase, or summarize an author’s information

Cite In-Text Called author-date Refers reader to Reference Page

Paraphrased Material Author’s name Date Page number, not required, but recommended

Example – Author’s Name in Sentence Jonathan Black (2009) suggests that citing sources is hard but essential work (p. 45).

Example – Author’s Name in Parentheses Citing sources is hard but essential work (Black, 2009, p. 45).

Documenting Quotations Short quotes – less than 40 words Long quotes – more than 40 words

Short Quotes Put quote marks around quoted material Cite the source in parentheses Place the period after the closing parenthesis

Short Quotes – Example Professor May (2009) claims that “the exact vocabulary and syntax are paramount to understanding” (p. 34).

Long Quotes Longer than 40 words In block form Indent 5 spaces for entire quote Do not use quotation marks Double space the block quote Cite the source after the end punctuation of the quote

Long Quote – Example Professor May (2009) warns that The “placebo effect,” which had been verified in previous studies, disappeared when behaviors were studied in this manner. Furthermore, the behaviors were never exhibited again, even when real drugs were administered. Earlier studies were clearly premature in attributing the results to a placebo effect. (p. 276)

In-Text Only Citations Personal Communications E-mail, interviews, telephone conversations Non-recoverable Biblical References Book, Chapter, Verse Version in the first citation

Gracefully Introducing Quotes Use the author’s last name Use the word “states” Or use one of the alternatives to “states” listed on page 2 of the pink handout

The Reference Page Center the word References at the top – no quotes, italics, or underline Arrange sources alphabetically beginning with author’s last name If author has more than one source, arrange entries by year, earliest first If no author given, begin entry with the title and alphabetize without counting a, an, or the Do not underline, italicize or use quote marks for titles used instead of an author name Do not justify the right margin
