Chapter in an edited book (anthology)Sometimes you will use information taken from an anthology, a book containing chapters written by various authors. These books will have one or more editors (who may also be authors of one or more of the chapters).

Here is how to format a citation when you have used information from a particular chapter:

Rycroft-Malone, J, & Bucknall, T. (2010). Evidence-Based practice: Doing the right thing for patients. In J. Rycroft-Malone & T. Bucknall (Eds.), Models and frameworks to implementing evidence-based practice: Linking evidence to action (pp. 1-20). Malden, MA: Wiley.

end of the paper

Sources that you use must be documentedWhen you use an exact quotation AND when you

paraphrase information

(= put the author’s ideas into your own words)

Page 21: The Essentials of Fall 2013 Barbara Quintiliano Falvey Memorial Library x95207 Barbara.quintiliano@villanova.edu 1

Basic format for in-text citation

Must includeLast name of authors

Two authors: Yanovsky & Yanovsky Three to five authors: Identify ALL authors the first time you cite

them. Then use first author and et al. after that: 1st time cited: Rossi, Kirk, & Holder Later: Rossi et al.

Six or more authors: first author followed by et al.

Year of publicationFor an exact quotation, you must add the page

number Adding page number(s) to citation for paraphrase is

also recommended.

Basic style for documenting an exact quotation:

As researchers have explained, obesity was once considered “either a moral failing or evidence of underlying psychopathology” (Yanovsky & Yanovsky, 2002, p. 592).

Another style for documenting an exact quotation:

Here the names of the authors have been used as part of the sentence, sowe add just the year in parentheses and the page numbers in parenthesesat the end.

Example of documenting paraphrased information. In-text citation still required: Two of the medications—fenfluramine and

dexfenfluramine—were withdrawn from the market because of severe side effects (Yanovski & Yanovski, 2002, p. 38).

See the APA Style Manual or Research and Documentation Online (http://bcs.bedfordstmartins.com/resdoc5e) for more guidelines on in-text citations.

But what if I used an electronic source and don’t have any page numbers? Whenever possible, download the pdf version of a journal article,

which will provide page numbers.

If you are paraphrasing or citing from a web document without page numbers, it is recommended that you number the paragraphs and then cite paragraph numbers in your citations, as in the example below.

Research and Documentation Online http://bcs.bedfordstmartins.com/resdoc5e/RES5e_ch09_s1-0009.html

Several other drugs were classified by the Drug EnforcementAdministration as having the “potential for abuse” (Hoppin &Taveras, 2004, Weight-Loss Drugs section, para. 6).

Answers to examples on slides

Wagner, D. T., Barnes, C. M., Lim, V. K. G., & Ferris, D. L. (2012). Lost sleep

and cyberloafing: Evidence from the laboratory and a daylight saving

time quasi-experiment. Journal of Applied Psychology, 97(5), 1068-

1076. doi: 10.1037/a0027557 Technical note:

The issue number is usually omitted if page numbers are continuous beginning with the first issue of a volume. So in the more correct version of the above citation would be written like this:

Journal of Applied Psychology, 97, 1068-1076.

Instructors in certain academic departments (notably psychology) are more insistent upon this rule than others. When in doubt, ask your instructor.
