Content

This page contains the specification of the APA-Export for the Repository-Software "PubMan"

Basic Rules

• A citation always ends with a dot.
• If one field is missing, display the rest of the fields.

Authors

• Give out creators' names as family name, initial. Creator.Given.Name(s) should be converted into initials.: Miller, K. or Benett, T. K.
• If there are two authors, please connect them with ", &": Wegener, D. T., & Petty, R. E.
• If there are 3-20 authors: commas separate author names, while the last author name is preceded again by ", &".: Kernis, M. H., Cornell, D. P., Sun, C. R., Berry, A., & Harlow, T.
• If the work has more than 20 authors, list the first 20 authors and then use et al.: Harris, M., Karper, E., Stacks, G., Hoffman, D., DeNiro, R., Cruz, P., Author, A., Author, B., [......], Author20, A., et al.
• Creators of type organization should be treated exactly like creators of type person (creator roles "author" and "editor" are both allowed for organizations).
• If both authors and editors are available for the item, only use authors for the citation.
• If there are no authors but editors, please use creators with role editor instead.
• If there are no authors and no editors, move title to the author position, before the date of publication.
• These rules also apply, when creator.role = editor

Editors

• Please note that the rules for authors also apply to editors.
• If the item has creator with role editor, use the abbreviation (Ed.) or (Eds.) after the last editor's name. Please use (Ed.) for one editor and (Eds.) for more than one.
• If there are no editors, move title to the author position, before the date of publication.

Titles

• Italicize titles for genres for larger works. This refers to the following genres:
  • book
  • journal
  • festschrift
  • handbook
  • series
  • monography
  • collected edition
  • talk
  • poster
  • commentary
  • report
  • editorial
  • case study
  • opinion
• Do not italicize, underline, or put quotes around the titles of shorter works. This refers to all other genres.

Dates

Dates should be used in the following order:

Attention: For genres series and journal, no date should be visible in the citation. The following rules do not apply.

1. start date of event (relevant only for genres poster, talk at event and teaching/courseware; for all other genres, proceed directly to date published in print)--> fill in the year
2. date published in print --> fill in the year
3. date published online --> fill in the year (do not render as "in press"). The doi should be added at the end of the citation, 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.
4. date accepted --> render it as
   1. year of date accepted for genres: manuscript, poster, talk at event, teaching/courseware
   2. "in press" for all other genres
5. date submitted --> render it as
   1. year of date submitted for genres: manuscript, poster, talk at event, teaching/courseware
   2. "submitted" for all other genres
6. date modified --> render it as
   1. year of date modified for genres: manuscript, poster, talk at event, teaching/courseware
   2. "in preparation" for all other genres
7. date created --> render it as
   1. year of date created for genres: manuscript, poster, talk at event, teaching/courseware
   2. "in preparation" for all other genres
8. if no dates are available --> render it as: (n.d.)

A date should never be the first element of a citation. If there are no authors or editors, date should come after the title, not before. Also see example for "Book with no author, no editor".

Citation of works not yet published

Not yet published are works, which have only one or more of the following dates: date created, date modified or date submitted.

Attention: These rules are valid for all genres, except of manuscript, teaching (Lecture/Courseware), Talk at event, Poster, Journals or Series.

• Only export creators and title.
  • submitted publications: Author, A. A. (submitted). Title of publication.
  • in preparation publications: Author, A. A. (in preparation). Title of publication.

Citation of genres specified in APA

Journal Article

• No Editors may appear in the citation, when genre = journal article.
