Example 1 APA-FORMATTED REFERENCES

Different types of sources have different formatting in the references. In

American schools, the two most commonly used guidelines for this formatting are
published by the MLA (Modern Language Association) and the APA (American

Psychological Association). In this book, you will learn the APA format.

When writing references, you should list the sources in alphabetical order
using the author's last name. If a source has more than one author, alphabetize

using the first one. If an author is unknown, alphabetize that source using the title
instead. You have to consider the italicization in the references. In APA style, the title

of books and journals are written in italics.
