    who knew citing was so complicating (by me, 2020, during a pandemic, trying to do an essay, not understanding, et. al).

    There's a small mistake at 1:20 ❎ - the date appears in parentheses must be placed immediately after the author’s name for a narrative citation. Please keep this in mind while you're watching the video 🙂
    This video follows the *APA 6th edition* guidelines. If you’re looking for the latest edition (APA 7th edition), check out this video instead ➡️ ua-cam.com/video/opp259YvaoE/v-deo.html

    I don't how many times I've come back to this video to make sure I've got the syntax right, but I have recommended it to anyone who never learned citations in high school or college. I also recommend to them The Scribbr APA generator you introduced, with the warning that you you forego the auto-generator at your own peril. University professors slice these citations up with finely honed kitchen knives, each cut shaving points from your overall grade. Thanks.

    I'd like to ask a few questions though just to be clear!
    When you're referring to the source as a whole (0:50) is that when you get information but reword it in your own words (not within quotations) while using the cite to show where you got the information from?
    What do you do when you have multiple citations from the same website but from different sections of the website? Do you do separate references for all in the reference list?

    Jessica, thank you for this great resource! FYI, the inclusion of a source title in the text is not the same as it is in the references. According to the 7th edition of APA style, in-text title use for articles has quotation marks and normal (first letter of major words or each word over x letters--the preposition of is not capitalized and the preposition Between is capitalized) title capitalization while the reference list entry does not have quotation marks and uses first-word capitalization--at the beginning of the title and after a colon or a dash (subtitle). Book/Journal titles also have normal title capitalization for in-text use while the references use the first-word of title and subtitle (and proper nouns).
