Q. How do I cite a reference in APA style?

Answer

The Purdue Online Writing Lab's (Purdue OWL's) APA Formatting and Style Guide is a great resource for citation formats and examples for a wide range of source material: books, book chapters, edited books, journal articles, as well as various other print and non-print sources, such as videos, interviews, written and electronic correspondence, etc.

The OWL APA guide also provides instruction on formatting your paper in APA style and offers an APA sample paper.
