14 Question: Why do we need them?
Citation styles Question: Why do we need them?

15 Citation styles We have two types of citation styles, one which you already know In – text citation: you give information about the text you’ve written right after the paraphrase or quotation The rest of the citation, so even if you cited “in- text” is left to the “LIST OF REFERENCES” (APA) or “WORKS CITED” (MLA)

16 Citation styles: 4 different kinds
APA STYLE – most important for us (within social sciences) MLA STYLE ENDNOTE CHICAGO STYLE AMA STYLE 1) AND 2) AND 3) are most commonly used and therefore discussed in this lecture

17 1) APA style APA stands for American Psychological Association
Most commonly used within social sciences Most commonly used within social sciences – language and linguistics SO THIS ONE IS FOR MOST OF YOU 

18 1) APA style: examples of in-text citation
or

19 1) APA style: list of references
Once you’ve finished with all your citations in the text itself… ….you have to make sure that all your citations are referred to at the end of your paper We call that the REFERENCE LIST or LIST OF REFERENCES

20 Example: list of references
The reference list is what your computer does on its own

21 2) MLA Style Stands for Modern Language Association
Is mostly used for the liberal arts and humanities It doesn’t differ all that much from APA

22 2) MLA Style vs. APA Style In-text citations are referred to with the page number and the year is disregarded: APA: MLA: If the author is not named in the signal phrase, place the author’s name and the page number in parentheses after the quotation or paraphrase (Critser, 5)

23 2) MLA Style vs. APA Style APA: List of References/ References – MLA: Works Cited

24 MLA: Works Cited Your computer does this on its own

25 3) Footnote Footnotes can be used in MLA and in APA in-text by numbers after the punctuation of the phrase or clause. At the end of the page, the footnote explains the sentence a bit more: the authors who agree or disagree. – to give extra info about the source

26 4) Footnote and Endnote The endnote is used when the author refers to his sources purely by footnotes – and this is sometimes done in the MLA citation style, especially for English literature and poetry

27

28 Your computer does the reference list/works cited automatically for you depending on which type you choose – APA OR MLA
