APA 3:Why bother?
To credit other authorsTo allow readers to follow your research trail
Dear Paula, Will coenzyme Q10 reduce wrinkles?
Regarding coenzyme Q10, there are only a handful of studies showing it to have any effect on wrinkles (Sources: Biofactors, September 1999, pages 371–378, and Zeitschrift für Gerontologie und Geriatrie, April 1999, pages 83–88). However, neither of these studies was a double-blind or placebo-controlled trial…. "CoQ10 supplements are readily absorbed by the body and no toxic effects have been reported for daily dosages as high as 300 mg though the safety of CoQ10 has not been established in pregnancy and lactation, so caution is advised here until more data becomes available" (Sources: International Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine, February 1998, pages 11–12, and www.naturaldatabase.com).

Best way to learn APA?
Understand the principles.Find and follow a model.Realize it’s an iterative process.
![Page 12: Cracking the APA Code](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56815d98550346895dcbba71/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
First Principle
If it’s not cited, it’s yours.Over the past 30 years, researchers have demonstrated that the great apes . . . resemble humans in language abilities more than had been thought possible. Just how far that resemblance extends, however, has been a matter of some controversy.
Conclusion drawn by the writer; no citation
![Page 13: Cracking the APA Code](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56815d98550346895dcbba71/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Second Principle
If it’s cited, you must provide enough information to locate the source.
In an influential article, Terrace, Petitto, Sanders, and Bever (1979) argued that the apes in language experiments . . . were merely imitating their trainers.
In-text citation points to reference list entry

Where do we find Terrace et al?
Each in-text citation has a matching entry:

In-text cites match ref. list
Every in-text citation should have a matching reference list entry.
Exception: works with nonrecoverable data, such as letters, emails, or interviews, are cited only in text.

Third Principle
Elements in an APA citation follow a predictable order. Author. (Date). Retrieval information.Retrieval information varies by format:
BookArticleWeb siteOther--TV show, computer program,
Congressional testimony….

APA Logic: Creating citations
1. Follow the model:Author, A. A., Author, B. B., & Author, C. C. (Date). Title of article. Title of Periodical, ##, 000-000. Retrieved month day, year, from source.
2. Have EBSCO do it.

APA Logic: Use citation maker
3. Remember, none are perfect:CitationMachine can’t handle sources with no authors.

APA Logic: Use citation maker
4. BibMe.org will load info, but you need to • scan the perimeter • check the results.

APA Logic: Using software
You need to choose• APA documentation style• The type of source
Note: EBSCO may be called an electronic database or a subscription service.
• Fill in the blanks with the information you have.

APA Logic: 3—Omissions
Omit information you don’t have.Usually go on to the next element.If no author is given, the title becomes the first element in the citation.
