Citing Sources in APA
APA recommends an author-date system of citations.
1) The sources is introduced by a signal phrase that includes the last name of the author followed by the date of publication in parentheses.
2) The material being cited is followed by a pages number in parentheses.
3) At the end of the paper, an alphabetized list of references gives complete publication information for the source.

Model signal phrases
In the words of Carmona (2004), “. . . “ (p. 341).
As Yanovski and Yanovski (2002) have noted, “. . .” (p. 7892).
Hoppin and Taveras (2004), medical researchers, pointed out that “. . .” (p. 65).
“ . . .,” claimed Critser (2003).
Researchers McDuffie et al (2003) have offered a compelling case for this view: “ . . .” (p. 73).

In text Citations
Yanovski and Yanovski (2002) reported that “the current state of the treatment for obesity is similar to the state of the treatment of hypertension several decades ago” (p. 600).
What do you notice about this citation? Is there anything about it that surprises you?

Basic Format: Quotation
Critser (2003) noted that despite growing numbers of overweight Americans, many health care providers still “remain either in ignorance or outright denial about the health danger to the poor and the young” (p. 5).

Yanovski and Yanovski (2002) explained that sibtramine suppresses appetite by blocking the reuptake of the neurotransmitters serotonin and norepinephrine in the brain (p. 594).

Work with 2 authors
Give the name of both authors in signal phrases or parentheses each time you cite the work.
According to Sothern and Gordon (2003), “Environmental factors may contribute as much as 80% to the cause of childhood obesity” (p. 104).
Obese children often engage in limited physical activity (Sothern & Gordon, 2003, p. 104).

Work with 3 to 5 authors
Identify all authors in the signal phrase or the parentheses the first time you cite the source.
In 2003, Berkowitz, Wadden, Tershakovec, and Cronquist concluded, “Sibutramine…must be carefully monitored in adolescents, as in adults, to control increases in {blood pressure and] pulse rate” (p. 1811).
In subsequent citations, use the first author’s name followed by “et al.” in either the signal phrase or parentheses.

Personal Communication
Personal interviews, memos, letters, email and similar unpublished communications should be cited in the text only, not in the reference list (this is definitely different from MLA). Use the first initial with the last name in parentheses (F. Johnson, personal communication, October 20, 2013).
For this research paper, please adapt the MLA works cited reference for personal interview in the APA style (year right after name, etc).

Other examples
Like six or more authors, work with an unknown author, organization as author, etc., see pages 513- 515.

List of References
Instead if calling it a Works Cited, APA calls this page at the end References.
For a sample References page, see p. 548 of the Hacker book.

Guidelines for listing authors
To see how to list works by a single author, organization as author, article in a journal, articles in a newspaper, book with an author and an editor, article in an online magazine, short work from a website, podcast, email, government document see listing on 495 and then go to the appropriate example.

Abstract
Separate page
An abstract is a 100-150 word paragraph that provides readers with a quick overview of your essay. It should express your main idea and your key points; it might also briefly suggest any implications or applications of the research you discuss in the paper. See page 541 for an example.
