Journal articles

Those examples are references to articles in scholarly journals and how they are supposed to appear in your bibliography.

Not all journals organize their published articles in volumes and issues, so these fields are optional. Some electronic journals do not provide a page range, but instead list an article identifier. In a case like this it's safe to use the article identifier instead of the page range.

Emlen DJ (2001) Costs and the diversification of exaggerated animal structures. Science 291:1534–1536
A journal article with 2 authors
Kelemen PB, Hirth G (2007) A periodic shear-heating mechanism for intermediate-depth earthquakes in the mantle. Nature 446:787–790
A journal article with 3 authors

Web sites

Sometimes references to web sites should appear directly in the text rather than in the bibliography. Refer to the Instructions to authors for Artificial Intelligence Review.

Blog post

Reports

This example shows the general structure used for government reports, technical reports, and scientific reports. If you can't locate the report number then it might be better to cite the report as a book. For reports it is usually not individual people that are credited as authors, but a governmental department or agency like "U. S. Food and Drug Administration" or "National Cancer Institute".

Government report
Government Accountability Office (1988) FAA Staffing: Improvements Needed in Estimating Air Traffic Controller Requirements. U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC

Theses and dissertations

Theses including Ph.D. dissertations, Master's theses or Bachelor theses follow the basic format outlined below.

Doctoral dissertation
Mathes MD (2014) Exploring Factors That Enabled Financial Advisors and Their Firms to Improve Professional Performance After 2008. Doctoral dissertation, Northcentral University

News paper articles

Unlike scholarly journals, news papers do not usually have a volume and issue number. Instead, the full date and page number is required for a correct reference.

New York Times article
Gustines GG (2017) Comics Put the Pow In Power. New York Times C1

In-text citations

References should be cited in the text by name and year in parentheses:

This sentence cites one reference (Emlen 2001).
This sentence cites two references (Emlen 2001; Kelemen and Hirth 2007).

Here are examples of in-text citations with multiple authors:

  • Two authors: (Kelemen and Hirth 2007)
  • Three or more authors: (Sasaki et al. 2014)
