Referencing and Citation Styles According to APA 6th edition

APA in the Text

- When referring to an entire work, the (author’s last name, year) is included, e.g.  (Öztürk, 2004).

-When referring to part of a work (e.g. a page, paragraph or chapter in a book), the page number is also included, e.g. (Köker, 1998: 42).

- References with the same first author are given as (Zizek, 2009a) and (Zizek, 2009b).

-If a work has two-five authors, all authors are cited the first time, (Kejanlıoğlu, Adaklı ve Çelenk, 2004), and from then on only the last name of the first author is included (Kejanlıoğlu et al., 2004).

- When referring to a work with two authors, both authors’ last names are cited. If a work has more than two authors, all authors are cited the first time, and from then on only the last name of the first author is included.

Gregory, Agar, Lock and Harris (2007) state that getting interested in science is a new way of public relations for private sector. (...) Gregory et al., argue that this way the companies maintain their reputations (2007: 212).

-If there are more than six authors, only the last name of the first author is cited at the first citation as well (Abisel et al., 2005).

-Where your source quotes or refers to another source, the citation might read thus: (Zizek, as cited in Sancar, 2009). Only Sancar will appear in the Reference list.

-If the original date is known, classical books are cited as: (Marx, date of the original work / date of the used book or article)

-When referencing a quotation from an original work triple dot (...) is used to show the removed words. Other short quotations are put in double quotation marks:

Indeed, one researcher commented that “technological innovations have saved or extended the lives of many patients” (Lumby, 2001, p. 44).

-Quotations that are more than 40 words are referenced in quotes with single line spacing, 10-point type and not italicized.

-Abbreviations are given in parenthesis in the text only the first time. For example, “Eventually in 1957, International Monetary Fund (IMF) was referred to pay the international debts. This loan has made the IMF and important figure of the Turkish economy.

-When referring from an anonymous resource, it is appropriate to cite as it is on references with a part of heading included.

For example: In Turkey, the academics in the field of social sciences have had a better chance to find international scholarships to complete their higher education (“Turkey’s Science Academia Report”, 2005:20).

-Usage of numbers: When starting a sentence numerical statements are given with words.

For example:

Twenty of the forty-five thesis (...) was based on text analysis, and the remaining 15 theses were about politics of economy.

-The footnotes in the text are included at the bottom of the page and enumerated.

-If there is only one appendix of the text, it is entitled, italicized and cited in the text as Appendix. If there are more than one, they are lettered and aligned as Appendix A, Appendix B, etc. The appendices coming at the end of the text should be titled. They should be stated with their labels in the main text.

For example:

When the masters and the doctorate thesis about the news made in Turkey are examined (Appendix A and Appendix B) starting form 19902, it is seen that they all focus on representation, ideology and discourse issues.

The heading format valid for in-text heading and subheading sequencing is 5 levelled in APA. If your text is complex and voluminous with many subheadings, use level 1, level 2, and level 3 headings. If your text is complex but it does not need subheadings, use level 1, and level 2 heading formats.

APA in Reference List

-Reference list should have a single line spacing, 10-point type and a single space between references. All references shall be left-aligned with 1.25 cm indent on the first line. If there is more than one work by the same author, they are ordered by publication date – oldest to newest. The works with the same date are ordered using the letters, e.g. 2000a, 2000b.

-If there are any, the DOI numbers of the journals are included.

For example:

Anderson, A. K. (2005). Affective Influences on the Attentional Dynamics Supporting Awareness. Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 154, 258–281. doi:10.1037/0096- 3445.134.2.258

-If there aren’t any, the Url number is included. For example, http://cins.ankara.edu.tr/cansun.html

-If the original dates of the classical works are known, it should be given at the end of the reference: (Original work is dated 1846)

-If there are two authors with the same last name, they should be ordered alphabetically according to the first letter of their names, although the former one dates older.
