REFERENCE FORMATS

---

Your text and the reference list must agree. "References cited in text must
appear in the reference list; conversely, each entry in the reference list must
be cited in text" (APA, 2001, p. 215). See the section on Reference citations for citing references in text.

Abbreviating within a reference

Here are approved abbreviations for use
in a reference list:

• chap. for chapter
  
• ed. for edition
  
• rev. ed. for revised edition
  
• 2nd ed. for second edition
  
• Ed. for Edited by
  
• (Eds.) for multiple editors
  
• Trans. for Translated by
  
• p. for page number, with a space after the period

• pp. for page numbers (plural)
  
• Vol. for a specific Volume
  
• vols. for a work with xx volumes
  
• No. for Number
  
• Pt. for Part
  
• Suppl. for Supplement,
  
• Tech. Rep. for Technical Report
  

Use the abbreviation "pp." for page numbers
in encyclopedia entries, multi-page newspaper articles, chapters or articles in
edited books, but not in journal or magazine article citations, where
numbers alone should be used (see examples of reference formats).
