When you paraphrase or quote informaition that came from an outside source, you must tell your reader where
the informaition came from. To do this, you provide brief informaition about the source, usually the author and
publicaition year. If you use a direct quotaition, you should also include the page number (see p. 3 for details).
Example:
While the opening of a large research university such as UC Merced leads to a growth in service industry jobs to
meet the increased demands of students and faculty of the university, job growth in manufacturing is delayed
(Lee, 2019).Reference List
You also need to provide a list of all of the sources that you cited in your paper. Here, you will give addiitional informaition about each source you cited. (See p. 4 for details).
Example:
Lee, J. (2019). The local economic impact of a large research university: Evidence from UC Merced. Economic
Inquiry, 57(1), 316-332.
1In-Text CitaitionsWhen you use ideas from an outside source by directly quoiting or paraphrasing, give that source credit by
including a brief citaition. Every work you cite in-text should have an entry in your reference list, with the
excepition of personal communicaitions or experiences. Always include a page number when ciiting direct
quotaitions, and consider including a page number when paraphrasing complex ideas.One Author (or Editor)
(Author's Last Name, Year) (Luna, 2020)Two Authors
(Salas & D'Agositino, 2020)Mulitiple Authors (Three or more Authors)
(Maritin et al., 2020)No Author
("Title of Entry," Year) ("Understanding Sensory Memory," 2018) No Author, No Date ("Title of Entry," n.d.) ("Quesitions and Answers," n.d.)Entry in the DSM-V
(American Psychiatric Associaition, 2013)Source Quoted in another Source
(as cited in Zakharchenko, 2014, p. 99)Direct Quotaition (One page)
(Asante, 2014, p. 325)Direct Quotaition (Two or more pages)
(Risen, 2016, pp. 202-203)Paraphrase
Paraphrasing involves restaiting the ideas of a source in your own words. It is recommended to paraphrase
more otften than directly quote in most academic wriiting. Include a citaition for the paraphrased work in your
text, and provide a page number in the citaition when the paraphrased work is long or complex.Parentheitical format places the citaition in parentheses at the end of the sentence. When ciiting a source with
two authors, use an ampersand (&) between the authors' names.Example:
Although Americans may say they are in favor of increased gun control, mispercepitions about exisiting gun laws
may lead to decreased acition and advocacy (Arronow & Miller, 2016).Narraitive format includes the author's name within the sentence. In this format, the date should be included
just atfter the author's name and the page number listed at the end of the sentence. When ciiting a source with
two authors spell out the word "and" between the authors' names.Example:
According to Arronow and Miller (2016), although many Americans favor increased gun control, mispercepitions
regarding exisiting gun laws may lead to decreased acition and advocacy.Direct Quotaitions
2If you use a direct quotaition, you will put the quoted material in quotaition marks (" "), cite the source in
parentheitical or narraitive format as above, and also cite the page number in your in-text citaition.
If the quotaition appears mid-sentence, cite the source immediately atfter the quotaition marks. Example:
One study found that both Laitinos and Anglos who are involved in organizaitions "vote at impressively
higher rates" (de la Garza, 2004, p. 97) than those who are not members of an organizaition.If the quotaition appears at the end of the sentence, cite the source in parentheses immediately atfter the
quotaition marks, and end with a period or other punctuaition outside the ifinal parenthesis. Example:
Strain and Webber (2017) argue that for women, "high-school leadership experience is correlated withoccupaitional choice, speciifically higher-income management occupaitions. Finally, we ifind that the gender
wage gap is reduced by as much as 75 per cent when accouniting for leadership experience among those within management occupaitions" (p. 5048).If the quotaition is 40 words or longer, omit the quotaition marks. Start the quotaition on a new line and indent
the block of text ½ inch from the letft margin. Double space the enitire quotaition. Example: Children in the early years of school clearly link reading instrucition with the classroom social environment: Children's perspecitives documented in this study shed light on the muliti-dimensional and variablenature of reading as a social pracitice in their early classroom lives. The children were clearly aware of
the diffferenitiaition of their reading experiences according to the kinds of situaitions in which their
reading was embedded. Children were atttuned to situaitional variables such as roles and relaitionships,
content focus and instrucitional emphasis, which shaped how children in various ways construed and pariticipated in the seven situaitions explored in this study. (Harris, 2015, p. 35) 3Reference List
General Guidelines
Include citaitions only for sources that you personally read and actually cited in your paper. Citaitions should include the following elements: author, date, ititle, source. Examples below demonstrate variaitions based on source type.When lisiting authors' names, include only the last name and iniitials. See the author formaièitièing
instrucitions below. Italicize book ititles as well as periodical ititles and volumes.Capitalize all words in a periodical ititle (e.g. Psychology Today) but only the ifirst word in an ariticle ititle,
book ititle, or Web page (e.g. To kill a mockingbird). Also, capitalize the ifirst word of a subititle and
capitalize proper nouns.If a source (journal ariticle, book, etc) has a Digital Object Idenitiifier (DOI), then include the DOI in the
citaition for both print and online versionsAuthors
