References Format

Citation in text: 

There are two formats for in-text citations: parenthetical and narrative. A parenthetical citation includes the author's name and publication date in parentheses and can appear within or at the end of a sentence. In a narrative citation, the author's name appears as part of the sentence and the date immediately follows in parentheses. You may also see both the author's name and date incorporated into the text of the sentence, but this is less common. In parenthetical citations use an ampersand (&) between names. Examples:

One author:

Parenthetical Citation: (Nichols, 2017)
Narrative Citation:        Nichols (2017) argued
                                         In 2017, Nichols argued

Two authors:

Parenthetical Citation:
