APA revision[edit]

Revision on Creators[edit]

The following rules are to be implemented in a new way:

Old version:

  • if there are 3-6 authors: commas separate author names, while the last author name is preceded again by ampersand. E.g.: Kernis, M. H., Cornell, D. P., Sun, C. R., Berry, A., & Harlow, T.
  • give the last name and initials for all authors of a particular work unless the work has more than six authors. If the work has more than six authors, list the first six authors and then use et al. E.g.: Harris, M., Karper, E., Stacks, G., Hoffman, D., DeNiro, R., Cruz, P., et al.

New version:

  • if there are 3-20 authors: commas separate author names, while the last author name is preceded again by ampersand. E.g.: Kernis, M. H., Cornell, D. P., Sun, C. R., Berry, A., & Harlow, T.
  • give the last name and initials for all authors of a particular work unless the work has more than 20 authors. If the work has more than 20 authors, list the first 20 authors and then use et al. E.g.: Harris, M., Karper, E., Stacks, G., Hoffman, D., DeNiro, R., Cruz, P., Author, A., Author, B., [......], Author20, A., et al.

--Makarenko 15:57, 25 February 2010 (UTC): Done.

Journal Articles[edit]

old version: Author, A. A., Author, B. B., & Author, C. C. (Year). Title of article. Title of Periodical, volume(issue number), pages.

New version Author, A. A., Author, B. B., & Author, C. C. (year). Title of article. Title of Periodical, xx, pp-pp. doi:xx.xxxxxxxxxx

please always include the DOI at the end if available. If doi is not available, please use identifier of type URL, preceded by the words "Retrieved from". If doi or URL are available more than once, please only take the first value.

example: Sauter, D., Eisner, F., Ekman, P., & Scott, S. K. (2010). Cross-cultural recognition of basic emotions through nonverbal emotional vocalizations. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 107(6), 2408-2412. doi:10.1073/pnas.0908239106--Karin 15:06, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

--Makarenko 16:35, 25 February 2010 (UTC): Done.

Series[edit]

Old version:

Editor, A. (Ed.). Title (Vols. start volume-end volume). Place of Publication: Name of Publisher.

e.g.: Wiener, P. (Ed.). Dictionary of the history of ideas (Vols. 1-4). New York: Scribner's.

New Version:

Editor, A. (Ed.). Title. Place of Publication: Name of Publisher.

e.g.: Wiener, P. (Ed.). Dictionary of the history of ideas. New York: Scribner's.

  • Since there is no source in the submission mask for series, no volume information can be included in citation style. --despoina 15:21, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
    • I do not think we have to worry about volumes with series. The above example is not a serie but a multi-volume work and should be entered as book.

APA has this as an example:Koch, S. (Ed.). (1959-1963). Psychology: A study of science (Vols. 1-6). New York, NY: McGraw-Hill. We enter the volume info into the title and if as in this case the publishing years of the volume are different we enter each volume separately in PubMan, if all volumes are published in the same year, we have one PubMan item. --Karin 10:45, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

      • This was exactly the outcome of our internal conversation yesterday. If the whole series is entered as a complete artefact, then volume information is unnecessary (if needed imperatively, it can be added as part of the title). If not, then it should be entered as separate books (where volume information is available for the source - problem solved). --despoina 10:57, 19 February 2010 (UTC)
--Makarenko 16:42, 25 February 2010 (UTC): Done.

Talk[edit]

Old version: Author, A. A., & Author, B. (Year of Event, please take the year of the start date of event; if date of event is not filled, please use the overall rules for dates). Publication.Title. Event.Title. Event.Place. Start Date of Event - End Date of Event.

e.g.: Van Berkum, J. J. A. (2009). Incrementality and beyond: What ERPs tell us about utterance comprehension. Workshop on Incrementality in Verbal Interaction, Bielefeld University. Bielefeld, Germany, 2009-06-08 - 2009-06-10.

New proposal:

Author, A. A., & Author, B. (Year of Event, please take the year of the start date of event; if date of event is not filled, please use the overall rules for dates). Publication.Title. Talk presented at Event.Title. Event.Place. Start Date of Event - End Date of Event.

Van Berkum, J. J. A. (2009). Incrementality and beyond: What ERPs tell us about utterance comprehension. Talk presented at Workshop on Incrementality in Verbal Interaction, Bielefeld University. Bielefeld, Germany, 2009-06-08 - 2009-06-10.

'Talk presented at the' precedes the Event.Title.--Karin 12:26, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

--Makarenko 16:44, 25 February 2010 (UTC): Please, comment. Should be implemented?
--despoina 09:18, 26 February 2010 (UTC): There is one more question to this issue: How should the system react if the title of event already contains an article? (e.g. "The Annual Symposium of Example Society" - with the proposed implementation, the article would appear twice in the citation... is there any way to solve this?)
--despoina 10:03, 26 February 2010 (UTC): Rule updated after discussion with Mrs. Kastens: To avoid the abovementioned problem, the article should be left out --> "Talk presented at" should precede the title of event.


Books with creators of type author and editor[edit]

Old version: Author, A. A. (Year of publication). Title: Alternative Title (A.A. Editor, Ed.)(2nd. Ed.). Place of Publication: Name of Publisher.

e.g.: Plath, S. (2000). The unabridged journals (K.V. Kukil, Ed.)(2nd.Ed.). New York: Anchor.

New version: Author, A. A. (Year of publication). Title: Alternative Title (A.A. Editor, Ed.). (2nd. Ed.). Place of Publication: Name of Publisher.

e.g.: Plath, S. (2000). The unabridged journals (K.V. Kukil, Ed.). (2nd.Ed.). New York: Anchor.

  • There should be a full stop and then a space between the brackets.--despoina 09:07, 26 February 2010 (UTC)


Books with Source.Genre=Series[edit]

Old rule: Author, A. A. (Year of publication). Title: Alternative Title (Edition). Place of Publication: Name of Publisher.

O'Connor, L. (2007). Motion, transfer, and transformation: The grammar of change in Lowland Chontal. Amsterdam: Benjamins.

New proposal: Author, A. A. (Year of publication). Title: Alternative Title (Edition). Place of Publication: Name of Publisher. (Title of Source, SourceVolume).

Hannay, M. & Bolkestein, M.A. (Eds.). (1998). Functional grammar and verbal interaction. Amsterdam: Benjamins. (Studies in language companion series, Vol. 44).

--despoina 15:04, 3 March 2010 (UTC): Please note that this is just a proposal. Since the APA manual does not contain a relevant example, we have to wait for user feedback, before this rule is implemented.
      • feedback from our scientists in Nijmegen: 'we don't care'. (explanation: The mentioning of the series was used to be an additional quality stamp in linguistics, but since publication ways are changing, its no longer of importance). People here ususally don't cite the series title. With respect to your proposal. It's ok. If people don't want the series title in their reference they won 't list it in PubMan.--Karin 15:20, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

Book Chapter (where Source=Book and Source=Series)[edit]

When a Book Chapter has two sources (where one is a book and the other a series), then the citation should look like that:

New (specific) Rule:

Author, A. A., & Author, B. (Year of publication). Title. In A. EditorofSeries, & B. EditorofSeries (Eds.), Title of Series: Volume of Series. Title of Book (pp. xxx-xxx). Place of Publication: Name of Publisher.

Friederici, A. D., & Oberecker, R. (2008). The development of syntactic brain correlates. In A. D. Friederici, & G. Thierry (Eds.), Trends in Language Acquisition Research (TiLAR): Vol. 5. Early language development: Bridging brain and behaviour (pp. 215-231). Amsterdam: John Benjamins.

--despoina 10:52, 3 March 2010 (UTC): In any other combination of sources, just take general citation for book chapter.
