If previously written articles or parts/citations from them are used, they must be paraphrased and indicated in accordance with the guidelines of this journal.
Before submitting the manuscript please check if the literature cited in the text matches the references in the references.
- Text Example:
Please use the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association in the 6th edition (APA, 2010). The following examples are created using the instructions in the Manual. Please also check the APA website: www.apastyle.org.This is how to cite a journal paper with one author (One, Year), two authors (One & Two, Year) or three authors (One, Two, & Three, Year). If you cite them all in one it looks like this (One, Year; One & Two, Year; One, Two, & Three, Year). The APA style has a restriction concerning very many authors at once, like e.g. seven (One, Two, Three et al., Year). The “&” is only used in brackets. If you cite like this “One and Two (Year) found out…” please use the “and”. The same for three authors: “One, Two, and Three (Year) propose…”. Please cite a book like this (APA, 2010) and a chapter within an edited volume like this (Four & Five, year).
