Paper Using APA FormatExce

rpt from Engli sh Faculty, Algonquin College in the Ottawa Valley. (2004). Guide to communication skills (2004 ed.). Ottawa: Algonquin Publishing. W hen you prepare a research paper, all secondary material must be carefully documented in order to avoid plagiarism. The purpose of this documentation is to credit the orig inal author and to show to the reader the sources of your information. Most college resear ch papers provide documentation in two parts: citations within the text of the essay, and re ferences (sometimes called a bibliography) at the end of the paper.

There are vari

ous style formats available to follow, but, if possible, you should choose one forma t and use it consistently in all research papers for all courses. Always check with the professor to ens ure that the style you want to use is acceptable. In this section, a guide for the A PA format of documentation is provided. This style is from The Publication Manualof the American P sychological Association, 5th ed. (2001) and is widely used in many colleges and universities in North America.

Citations Within the

Text of The PaperThe foll

owing material requires documentation within the body of your paper: all important statements of fact (statistics, for example); all paraphrases of those facts not considered common knowledge; all opinions or theories that are not your own; and all quoted material of more than three consecutive words.

Some style

formats use footnotes or endnotes to provide text documentation, but many stylists n ow recommend the use of parenthetical citation. There are different ways of providin g parenthetical citation, and you should check with your professor for the style she or he w ants you to use. Whatever style you use, be consistent.

The most popular

and often recommended style of parenthetical citation is to provide the name of the author, the year, and the page number. This information is separated by commas, enclosed by parentheses and inserted into the essay directly after the source material has been used. This kind of parenthetical citation efficiently acknowledges the specific sources without disrupting the text of the essay, and the reader can then obtain further i nformation about the source by consulting the references at the end of your paper.

2Procedures fo

r Parenthetical Citations

APA format generall

y follows the author, date, page method with the following special notes. 1. Place the reference as close as possible to the material that it documents. If the source is quoted, pla ce the citation directly after the quotation marks but before other punctuation.

Sample: "In 19

98, food poisoning claimed the lives of two thousand people"

(Kais er, 1999, p. 14), so we should watch what we eat.

If the quotation is

lengthy (more than 40 words) and set apart from the body of your essa y, the citation is placed in parentheses after the final punctuation mark.

A source that is paraphrased is document

ed by placing the citation where a pause in the sentence w ould naturally occur, and the citation precedes the punctuation.

Sample: Beca

use two thousand people died from food poisoning last year (Kaiser, 1999,
p. 14), we should be careful about what we eat.

Sample: We should be careful abo

ut what we eat, because two thousand people died from food p oisoning last year (Kaiser, 1999, p. 14). 2. Quoted material must correspond exactly to the original. Shor t prose quotations are usual ly incorporated into the text of the essay and enclosed by double quotation marks.

Use square brackets []

to mark a minor change in quoted material so that it can be incorpo rated smoothly and correctly into the body of your essay.

When quoting long prose quotations

(of more than forty words) begin on a new line, double spac e the quotation (if your essay is double spaced), indent all lines of the quotation five spaces from the left margin, and do not use quotation marks. 3.

The citation should include the author's last name, the year of publication, and the pagenumber. If the citation is from

an electronic or non-text source, then the page number is omitted, although the paragraph number may be included.

Sample:

(Jones, 2000, p.42) (Jones, 20

00, paragraph 10)

If you are citi

ng an idea or theory that is attributed to a specific author, but for which there is no s pecific page number, the citation would include only the author's last name and the y ear of publication.

Sample:

(Hendricks, 1996)

Note, howe

ver, that you must always provide page numbers for direct quotations from

3text sources.

4. Accepted formats for most types of references have been provided in the next few pages. It is i mpossible, however, to provide an example for every possible kind of reference you may encounter. If you cannot locate the exact format for a particular type of citat ion, use common sense to provide the appropriate information in your citation so that the reader w ill be able to locate the sources in your References.

Material By One Author

The c itation should include the author's last name, the year of publication, and the page number. The informatio n should be separated by commas and enclosed by parentheses. L eave one space after each period and comma. (Evans, 199
