APA References
Apricus Journals follow the "author-date" style, so the citation in the text consists of the author(s)
name and the year of publication given wholly or partly in round brackets.
Use only the surname of the author(s) followed by a comma and the year of publication. Include
page, chapter or section numbers if you need to be specific, for example if you are quoting,
paraphrasing or summarising:
No distinction is made between books, journal articles, internet documents or other
formats except for electronic documents that do not provide page numbers. In this case use the
paragraph number, if available, with the abbreviation para.
The full details of the source are given in a reference list at the end of the document:
Reference list entries contain all the information that is required to follow up your source. Reference
lists in APA are arranged alphabetically by author.
