Terms Plagiarism Direct Quotes Block Quotes Paraphrasing APA Citation
APA Citation: Direct & Block Quotations DIRECT According to Mickalowski, Mickelson, and Keltgen (2008), “Apple parlayed the strong reputation of the Apple brand and the iPod’s success to enter a lucrative cell phone market” (p. 283). BLOCK However, there are differing opinions about Apple’s iPhone launch: Apple parlayed the strong reputation of the Apple brand and the iPod’s success to enter a lucrative cell phone market, a step that may ward off a potential threat to Apple as other companies introduce devices that have strong music-storing and playback capabilities. (Mickalowski, Mickelson, & Keltgen, 2008, pp )
APA Citation: Paraphrased Information BEGINNING OF SENTENCE Mickalowski, Mickelson, and Keltgen (2008) believe Apple used their lead in the portable music player market to strategically time the iPhone’s launch. MIDDLE OF SENTENCE Without the success of the iPod, Mickalowski, Mickelson, and Keltgen (2008), believe Apple’s launch of the iPhone would not have been profitable as it was. END OF SENTENCE The success of Apple’s iPhone launch is strongly tied to the existing success of the iPod. (Mickalowski, Mickelson, and Keltgen, 2008.)
