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.

A journal article with 1 author
Ijspeert, A. J. (2014). Biorobotics: using robots to emulate and investigate agile locomotion. Science (New York, N.Y.), 346(6206), 196–203.
A journal article with 2 authors
Saks, M. J., & Koehler, J. J. (2005). The coming paradigm shift in forensic identification science. Science (New York, N.Y.), 309(5736), 892–895.

Web sites

Blog post
Andrew, E. (2016, May 2). Disease Evolution: How New Illnesses Emerge When We Change How We Live. IFLScience. IFLScience. https://www.iflscience.com/health-and-medicine/disease-evolution-how-new-illnesses-emerge-when-we-change-how-we-live/. Accessed 30 October 2018

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. (1996). NASA Facilities: Challenges to Achieving Reductions and Efficiencies (No. T-NSIAD-96-238). Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office.

Theses and dissertations

Doctoral dissertation
McCallum-Bonar, C. (2008). Black Ashkenaz And the Almost Promised Land: Yiddish Literature and the Harlem Renaissance (Doctoral dissertation). Ohio State University, Columbus, OH.

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
Sisario, B. (2017, September 18). Country Breakthrough On the Billboard Chart. New York Times, p. C3.

In-text citations

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

This sentence cites one reference (Ijspeert 2014).
This sentence cites two references (Ijspeert 2014; Saks and Koehler 2005).

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

  • Two authors: (Saks and Koehler 2005)
