What is a DOI?
A DOI, or Digital Object Identifier, is a unique identifier for a document published online. It can appear on bibliographic citations as an alphanumeric string of characters and serves as a direct link to the original document.
What is a reference list in APA style?
The APA citation style provides a framework of styling rules for academic papers. The American Psychological Association publishes a Manual which contains guidelines on paper structure and content, writing and formatting, and crediting sources. The APA style mandates short citations in-text and a reference list at the end of the document. In-text citations are presented in an author-date format, e.g. (Suliman, 2018). The reference list contains the author, year, title, and source of the cited works, at a minimum. It does not contain any references that were not cited in the paper.
