Journal articles

Those examples are references to articles in scholarly journals and how they are supposed to appear in your bibliography.

Not all journals organize their published articles in volumes and issues, so these fields are optional. Some electronic journals do not provide a page range, but instead list an article identifier. In a case like this it's safe to use the article identifier instead of the page range.

Reports

This example shows the general structure used for government reports, technical reports, and scientific reports. If you can't locate the report number then it might be better to cite the report as a book. For reports it is usually not individual people that are credited as authors, but a governmental department or agency like "U. S. Food and Drug Administration" or "National Cancer Institute".

Government report

News paper articles

Unlike scholarly journals, news papers do not usually have a volume and issue number. Instead, the full date and page number is required for a correct reference.

New York Times article
Crow, K. (2000, August 27). Watching the World, Never Mind the Cars, Go By. New York Times, 145.

In-text citations

References should be cited in the text by name and year in parentheses:

This sentence cites one reference (Furukawa, 2015).
This sentence cites two references (Furukawa, 2015; Myers & Olson, 2012).

Here are examples of in-text citations with multiple authors:

  • Two authors: (Myers & Olson, 2012)
  • Three authors: (Riddihough et al., 2008)
  • 6 or more authors: (Doiron-Leyraud et al., 2007)
