Two Easy Rules on Quotes
Short quotes with fewer than 40 words are incorporated into text and enclosed by quotation marks.
Example: “Approximately 27% of the workforce displays poor emotional intelligence” (Miele, 1993, p. 276).
(Publication Manual, 2001, p. 118)
![Page 8: APA, 5 th Edition Made Easy How A Scholarly Paper Should Look.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649ec85503460f94bd4673/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Block Quote over 40 wordsMiele (1993) found the following:
The ‘placebo effect,’ which had been verified in
previous studies, disappeared when behaviors were
studied in this manner. The behaviors were not
exhibited again even when real drugs were given.
(p. 40)

Electronic Quotes
Documents retrieved from the Internet should include Internet source, document title, and date retrieved on the reference page (URL or uniform resource locator). Remember, properly cited sources add to the researcher’s credibility.
Electronic Example (in-text citation):As Myers (2000, para. 5) aptly phrased it, “positive emotions are great.”

When in doubt, CITE references and citations
