Although originally intended for preparing papers for publication (copy manuscripts), both the APA research paper formatting and citation guidelines are the style of choice for final manuscripts.

A. IN-TEXT CITATIONS or PARENTHETICAL CITATIONS (citing, in parentheses, the author’s last name & year of publication)
These are your citations within the text; that is, instead of using footnotes, you briefly document, within the text of your paragraph, an idea from the source you consulted, usually citing, IN PARENTHESES, the author’s last name and year of publication.
Note that this parenthetical information corresponds to a full citation for that source in your Reference List at the end of your paper.
3939
REMINDER: The citations YOU CREATED in the text of your document should point to an entry in the Reference List.
4040
A. In–Text Citations (or Parenthetical Citations)
Text citations are basically the same for print and electronic sources. The main considerations in using text citations are placement and content of source material.
Placement of citations: Place the author (s) and date (s) within parentheses at an appropriate place within a sentence.
Example 1 (one author): Researchers have pointed out that the lack of trained staff is a
common barrier to providing adequate health education (Fisher, 1999).
Example 2 (three to five authors, when these are first cited in your paper):
(Anderson, Myers, Wilkes, & Matthews, 2003)
Example 3 (three to five authors, for all subsequent citations in your paper):
(Anderson et al., 2003)
Example 4 (when a work has six or more authors, use first author followed by et al., meaning “and others.”)
