一、留学生dissertation主要类别：
为了探讨和掌握dissertation的写作规律和特点，需要对dissertation进行分类。由于dissertation本身的内容和性质不同，研究领域、对象、方法、表现方式不同，因此，dissertation就有不同的分类方法。
燕子期刊网提示按内容性质和研究方法的不同可以把dissertation分为理论性dissertation、实验性dissertation、描述性dissertation和设计性dissertation。
另外还有一种综合型的分类方法，即把dissertation分为专题型、论辩型、综述型和综合型四大类：
1．专题型dissertation。
这是分析前人研究成果的基础上，以直接论述的形式发表见解，从正面提出某学科中某一学术问题的一种dissertation。
2．论辩型dissertation。
这是针对他人在某学科中某一学术问题的见解，凭借充分的论据，着重揭露其不足或错误之处，通过论辩形式来发表见解的一种dissertation。
3．综述型dissertation。
这是在归纳、总结前人或今人对某学科中某一学术问题已有研究成果的基础上，加以介绍或评论，从而发表自己见解的一种dissertation。
4．综合型dissertation。
这是一种将综述型和论辩型两种形式有机结合起来写成的一种dissertation。
简单分类：

a thesis; a dissertation; an essay; a paper
毕业dissertation
a graduation dissertation; a graduation thesis
博士dissertation
a doctoral dissertation

HOW TO CITE REFERENCES USING THE HARVARD STYLE
2 RGU: LIBRARY
Why cite references?
• To acknowledge use of other people’s work. Even if you cite someone else’s work only in order to disagree with it, you have made use of their intellectual property and you must acknowledge it.
• To help readers of your work follow how your argument was assembled and what your influences are – to help them form their own opinions on your work.
If you use someone else’s work without acknowledgement you risk facing charges of
plagiarism, which could damage your progress through University. This Guide is designed to
help you apply good practice in acknowledging and citing your sources.
How do I cite?
There are different styles of reference prescribed by various organisations. Details about a particular style will normally be set out in a style sheet or style manual: these cover things like how quotations should be set out within your text as well as how your references and bibliography should look.
The Robert Gordon University has approved the use of either the Harvard style or the Vancouver style for undergraduate use: check with your tutor or School which of these you should use in your assignments. Whichever style your School requires should be applied consistently throughout your academic work.#p#分页标题#e#
This Guide is based on the Harvard style as set out in British Standard recommendations for references to published materials (BS 1629) – see the “Further Information” section for details.
A guide to the Vancouver style is also available from the Library.
Common to all st yles is th e us e of reference cit ati ons and of a reference list and/or bibliogr aphy
Reference citations give information on other sources used in your text, at the point at which you use them. In the Harvard system, the reference citation consists of a note, in brackets, of the author’s name and the date of the work, which enables the reader to find the full details in the reference list at the end. If you are quoting directly from your source the reference will usually indicate the precise place to which you are referring (e.g. the page number).
The description of Glover’s education (McKay 1993) is based on several sources...
In the reference list, all the sources you have cited (except personal communications) are listed in alphabetical order by author, and if there is more than one item by a particular author they are listed in order of year of publication. A separate bibliography, which would include items you have consulted but not cited in the text, is not required in the Harvard style.
MCKAY, A., 1993. Scottish samurai - Thomas Blake Glover. Edinburgh: Canongate.
RGU: LIBRARY 3
WHEN TO CITE?
Every time you quote directly from someone’s work:
• make clear it’s a quotation (put it in quotation marks)
• cite the reference in the body of your text
• include the work it comes from in the reference list/bibliography.
Every time you refer indirectly to someone’s work (e.g. summarise their argument, or paraphrase
what they say):
• make clear what you’re saying comes from another source (e.g. “I do not agree with Lapping’s claim that...”)
• cite the reference in the body of your text
• include the work it comes from in the reference list/bibliography.
IMPORTANT NOTE: you should not rely too heavily on quotation and paraphrase of others’ work
in work of your own. Readers of your work will be looking for evidence of your own thoughts and conclusions, and your own answers to the questions set – not just a patchwork of the ideas of others.
Where you draw on the work of others it should be as evidence for or against your own conclusions, not as a substitute for showing that you have understood, and thought about, the resources you have looked at.
Indiana University have some useful guidance online on what is and what is not acceptable in quoting and paraphrasing – see the “Further Information” section for details.
WHAT SHOULD A REFEREN CE CITATION LOO K LIKE WITHIN MY TEXT?
In the Harvard style, the author’s name and the year of publication are placed in brackets at the point of reference. If the author’s name has occurred naturally in the text you can omit it from the brackets.#p#分页标题#e#
If you are referencing a direct quotation you should also include the number(s) of the page(s) it is taken from in the brackets.
Gorbachev (1988 p. 84) describes his concept of economic reform as “of an all-embracing,
comprehensive character” and goes on to explain...
...and the “sombre, disturbing” aspects of Picasso’s art (Golding 1981 p. 63) are further
emphasised...
The description of Glover’s education (McKay 1993) is based on several sources...
Even a brief discussion of informed consent (McHaffie 2000) points up a number of related
issues...
4 RGU: LIBRARY
WHAT SHOULD A REFEREN CE LIST CON TAIN?
Referring to a book by a single author, or by a group of authors who have not written chapters
separately (a monograph)
• authors/editors – all of them. In the Harvard style the name is laid out as surname followed by initial(s).
o For organisations, it is usually best to put the name in full (e.g. Department of Health, not
DoH).
o The Harvard (British Standard) style as set out in BS 1629 requires the authors’ names
to be in capitals.
• year of publication
• full title, in italics
• edition of the work – only if there has been more than one edition. If there has, you must say
which one, as the page numbers and content may change between editions.
• volume number – if the book is in more than one volume
• place of publication (as given on title page – if there are several, use only the one relevant to the country in which this edition was published)
• publisher (NOT printer) – if the publisher’s name is abbreviated on the title page it can be
abbreviated in your reference (as in “HMSO”) but otherwise the name should be given in full.
DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH SOCIAL SERVICES INSPECTORATE, 1991. Purchase of services:
practice guidance and practice material for Social Services Departments and other agencies.
London: HMSO.
GORBACHEV, M., 1987. Perestroika. expanded ed. London: Fontana/Collins.
MCKAY, A., 1993. Scottish samurai - Thomas Blake Glover. Edinburgh: Canongate.
Referring to a section in an anthology, or a book where different authors have written different
chapters
If you have used the whole book as background reading, you should refer to it as a whole:
• editor(s) of the volume, followed by “ed.” or “eds.”
• year of publication
• full title, in italics
• edition, if there has been more than one
• volume number, if there is more than one volume
• place of publication
• publisher.
STANGOS, N., ed. 1981. Concepts of modern art. revised ed. London: Thames and Hudson.
If you have cited a part of the book in your text, or if you have used only one part as background reading, you should refer to the part you have used. If you have cited more than one part in your text you should list them separately in the reference list:#p#分页标题#e#
• author(s) of the part or chapter (surname followed by initial(s))
• year of publication
• title of the part or chapter
• “In:”, then details of the book. The book details are laid out as for a book citation except that the author name(s) will be given as initial(s) followed by surname. Note that this is different from the way authors’ names appear when they are at the beginning of the reference citation.
• first and last pages of the chapter or part, preceded by “pp.”.

interfaces. Unpublished D. Phil thesis, University of Oxford.
A thesis which is available electronically is considered to be published – see the section below on electronic resources for details of how to cite it.
Referring to an article in a periodical (journal, magazine, newspaper etc.)
• author(s) of the article (surname followed by initial(s)). If there are more than three authors, list only the first one, followed by “et al.”
• year of publication
• article title
• periodical title, in italics. Give the full title for the sake of clarity, rather than using abbreviations.
• volume number, and part number in brackets
• first and last pages of the article, preceded by “pp.”.

Referring to conference papers or proceedings
If you are citing an individual paper from a volume of conference proceedings you should cite it as you would for a chapter in a book:
• author(s) of the paper, laid out as surname followed by initial(s)
• year of publication (note that this may not be the same as the year in which the conference was
held)
• title of the paper
• “In:”
• editor(s) of the volume, followed by “ed(s)”, laid out as initial(s) followed by surname#p#分页标题#e#

• editor(s) of the volume, followed by “ed(s)”
• year of publication

Referring to exhibition catalogues
• artist or author – where the exhibition is of a single living artist’s work this will usually be the artist. Where there are a number of living artists involved it will usually be the gallery or sponsor.
If the catalogue explicitly states it was written by someone other than the artist (e.g. where the exhibition is a retrospective, or is historical) use the name of the person who wrote or edited it.
• publication date – the date the catalogue was published (this may be different from the date of the exhibition itself)
• title of the catalogue, including any details of where the exhibition took place
• exhibition dates, in the format e.g. “13 - 18 September 1989”
• place of publication of the catalogue (not the location of the exhibition)
• publisher.

- 21 June 1987. London: Tate Gallery.
Where there is no author
For an unsigned article in a journal or newspaper (such as an editorial), the title of the periodical
should be given in place of the author:
European Journal of Cancer Care. 1999. Editorial. European Journal of Cancer Care, 8 (3),
p. 127
Other anonymous authors (for example of a poem or a cartoon) can be listed as “ANON.”#p#分页标题#e#
Committees
Often a government committee report will be known informally by the name of the chairman/woman of the committee (e.g. “the Dearing Report”). When citing it you should give the full name of the committee as the author, but you may add “Chairman:” and the chairman/woman’s name in brackets after the title if this will help readers of your work to identify the report.
NATIONAL COMMITTEE OF INQUIRY INTO HIGHER EDUCATION, 1997. Higher education in
the learning society. (Chairman: Sir Ron Dearing). London: The Stationery Office.
Referring to patents
• applicant / assignee (NOTE: the Harvard style does not give the inventor(s) if they are different to
the assignee. If the patent is assigned to the inventor’s company or university only the company
or university is cited.)
• year the patent was approved (applied for, if pending)
• title
• country / region (e.g. “European patent” for EP)
• patent number, without region abbreviation but with full date.
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA. 2004. SQUID detected NMR and MRI at ultralow fields. European
patent 1474707 2004-11-10.
REFERRING TO LE GAL MA TERIAL S
BS 1629 does not give full guidance on these but the following notes adapt accepted practice in other styles to the Harvard approach.
NOTE: in most instances we recommend that you do not use abbreviations in your citations (e.g. for
journal titles) as there is no single standard set of abbreviations and readers can be misled. In legal materials such as case reports and legislation, however, there are long-established conventions as to how some titles should be abbreviated, and these abbreviations may be used. There is a list of the most commonly-used legal abbreviations on the Library webpages at http://www.rgu.ac.uk/library/
howto/page.cfm?pge=27148
8 RGU: LIBRARY
For legal materials such as cases which are available to you in print or electronic format, (for example, for a case report which is available both in the Library and on LexisNexis) you should cite it as if for the printed version. However if material is available to you online only you should cite the electronic version.
Scottish and English cases
i. Cases reported in law reports
The reference citation within your text should contain the case name and year. It is usual to put the case name in italics.
In the case of Carlill v Carbolic Smoke Ball Company (1893), however...
Where the whole case is cited the reference list should contain:
• the case name, in italics
• the year
• the case report series abbreviation
• number of the first page of the case (note: do not use "p.").
Carlill v Carbolic Smoke Ball Company. 1893. 1 Q.B. 256
Where part of the case (either a quote or a point of law) is cited the reference list should#p#分页标题#e#
contain:
• the case name, in italics
• the year
• the case report series abbreviation
• number of the first page of the case, followed by "at", followed by the number of the first page of
the part quoted (note: do not use "p.").
Lord Atkin stated in Donoghue v Stevenson (1932) that “you must take reasonable care to avoid acts or omissions which you can reasonably foresee would be likely to injure your neighbour”.
Donoghue v Stevenson. 1932. S.C. (H.L.) 31 at 44
ii. Neutral citations
New cases in the higher courts are now assigned a “neutral citation”. It contains the year, code for the court and the number of the case. Most of these cases will also be reported in a recognised law report series. Where a citation to such a series exists it should be given. However, if a case is very new and only a neutral citation is available it can be used. The neutral citation will begin U.K.H.L. for the House of Lords, U.K.P.C. for the Privy Council, E.W.C.A. for the Court of Appeal or E.W.H.C. for the High Court: for Scottish courts, H.C.J.T. for the High Court, H.C.J.A.C. for the Court of Criminal
Appeal, C.S.O.H for the Court of Session (Outer House) or C.S.I.H for the Court of Session (Inner House).
The recent case of Pinto v Brixton Prison Governor (2004) has highlighted...
Pinto v Brixton Prison Governor. 2004. E.W.H.C. 2986
RGU: LIBRARY 9
iii. Cases ONLY available in newspapers
Where a case has ONLY been reported in a newspaper, and no citation to a law report series or a
neutral citation exists, it can be cited as follows:
• case name (not in italics)
• year
• title of newspaper, in italics
• date, in the format dd month
• page number(s), preceded by "p." or "pp."
Webley v Department for Work and Pensions. 2005. The Independent. 13 January, p. 43
iv. Unreported cases
Occasionally details of a case not reported in any series of law reports, without a neutral citation (see above) and not available in any newspaper, may be available as a transcript or summary on Westlaw
UK or LexisNexis Professional, or in a textbook. Such a case should be cited as follows (name, court, date, unreported):
• case name, in italics
• court
• date of judgement, in the format dd month yyyy
• "(Unreported)".
Hawley v Luminar Leisure Plc. Court of Appeal Queen’s Bench Division. 10 January 2005.
(Unreported).
Legislation
Within your text, the reference citation should take the form of the name of the Act etc. and the year it was enacted. The year is treated as part of the Act’s title, to distinguish it from acts with same title enacted in other years, so there is no need to repeat it in brackets.
The provisions of the Copyright (Visually Impaired Persons) Act 2002 include...#p#分页标题#e#
i. UK Parliament
Acts or Statutes:
• short title, in italics, including year of publication
• "c." followed by chapter number (note: this is not a section number within the Act but the Act's
own chapter number within the session of its enactment)
• if you are quoting a section, “s.” followed by the section number.
Copyright (Visually Impaired Persons) Act 2002. c. 33, s.4.
Statutory Instruments:
• title and year, in italics
• "S.I." followed by its number within the year of its enactment, in the format yyyy/(nnn)n.

Referri ng to figur es, tables and illustr ati ons
Where the figure or illustration is the author’s own work, or is not a substantial work in its own right
(e.g. if it is a family snapshot used in a biography) you should cite the author of the article or book as author, as in this example:
...Donnan’s graph (2000 p. 371 Fig. 30.4) shows that the majority of patients...
If the figures or plates are numbered it is best to give the number as well as the page number: in the example above, and in the one which follows, there are two illustrations on each page cited, so you must let your readers know which one you mean.

However if the illustration is not by the author of the work in which it appears, and if it is a work in its own right (e.g. a painting), you may wish to cite it in its own right (for instance, if it is an example of the work of a painter you are writing about). In this case you should say in what type of medium the original is (e.g. Engraving, Photograph, Watercolour), and should give the place the original work can be found (e.g. the gallery it is in, for a painting) as well as the details of the publication in which
you saw it reproduced:

IMPORTANT NOTE: the copyright laws restrict permission to “quote” illustrations, tables and
diagrams in your work more tightly than they restrict permission to quote small parts of text. If you wish to reproduce someone else’s illustrations(s) or table(s) in a work of your own (rather than just discussing and citing it) you may have to write to the author or publisher for permission. Check with your tutor/School about any material of this kind you want to reproduce.#p#分页标题#e#
REFERRING TO ORIGINAL ARTWORKS
If you are citing a work of art itself (rather than an illustration of it), you should cite:
• artist(s)
• date – this should be the year in which the work was first exhibited (or the year in which it is thought to have been produced, if it was not exhibited in the artist’s lifetime). It is acceptable to give an approximate date, in the format e.g. “c. 1470”.
• title
• format e.g “Oil on canvas” or “Multimedia installation”
• place – this should be the town/city of the gallery etc in which it can be seen
• institution – this should be the gallery, cathedral etc where the artwork can be seen.

REFERRING TO MAP S
A map which is contained in a larger work (e.g. a journal article) should be cited as for any other illustration (see above). For a map which is published separately in its own right your should cite:
• cartographer (this may be a company or a corporate body such as the Ordnance Survey, the
British Geological Survey, etc)
• date of publication
• title
• scale, expressed as a ratio
• series, if it is part of a series
• place of publication
• publisher.

Referri ng to electr onic resourc es
Materials in electronic formats, even when posted free to the Internet, are still the intellectual property of the person or organisation who produced them, and you must acknowledge them as you would for printed materials.
Because online (Internet) resources can move or change rapidly, in a way that print resources cannot,
it is usual to give the date when you consulted them (the “accessed date”) as well as the other details.
For electronic resources in “fixed” formats such as CD-ROM or DVD this is not necessary.
Referring to electronic resources in “fixed” formats
• authors/editors
• year of publication – usually the release date of the disk etc.
• title – if you are using an article from within a larger resource, the article title should be cited as
for a print journal, followed by “In:” and the details of the larger resource (as for print materials,
above). Otherwise give the title of the CD-ROM (or other resource) as a whole.
• format – e.g. “CD-ROM”, in square brackets

Referring to online books and journals
For online resources that are based on their print counterparts (online journals or books) it is fairly straightforward to identify authors, dates etc. and the only difference is that you add the format, the web address and “accessed date”.
For an online book by a single author/group of authors this will be:
• author(s)
• year of publication
• title in full
• medium e.g. “online” in square brackets
• edition of the work – only if there has been more than one edition

Referri ng to convers ati ons, lett ers or emails
(pers onal communic ati ons)
British Standard 1629 does not give specific guidance on personal communications. The following
notes adapt accepted practice in other styles to the Harvard approach.
If you refer in your text to a letter or email you have received from someone, or a conversation you
have had with them, you should cite it as a personal communication in the text of your work only.
The reference citation should contain:
• the person’s name (if that does not appear in your text) laid out as surname followed by
initial(s)
• the words “personal communication” (for letters or emails you can add “by letter” or “by email” if
you wish)
• the date the communication took place (for emails or letters this will be the date on which it was
sent to you).
...Beryl Morris (personal communication. 12 August 2004) suggests training is often the first
activity to be cut in times of financial stringency...
...while “training is often the first thing to suffer when funds are tight” (MORRIS, B., personal#p#分页标题#e#
communication. 12 August 2004)...
...while the HR Director of XCorp claims the company has never needed a Staff Development
policy (BLOGGS, J., personal communication by email. 13 August 2004)...
Emails posted to a bulletin board, weblog or similar rather than sent to you personally should be cited
as for other webpages (see the section on “Referring to electronic resources” for details).
Letters which have been published in a newspaper or periodical should be cited as for newpaper or
periodical articles. Letters which have been published in book form as part of a collection (for example,
the Collected Letters of a politician) should be cited as for a chapter within an edited book. Letters
which have been quoted in a book by another person (for example, in a biography) should be cited as
secondary references. See the relevant sections of this Guide for details of how to cite these.
Referri ng to more th an one sourc e by th e same auth or,
and referri ng more th an once to th e same sourc e
Referring to more than one source by the same author
In the Harvard style, the date is used to distinguish between different works by the same author. If
more than one work dates to the same year, letters of the alphabet are added.
While some countries have moved towards national strategies on cholesterol (Oliver 1993a),
problems with cholesterol-lowering approaches remain (Oliver 1993b). It has also been suggested
that some sectors of the population, such as young women, have been neglected in the study of
heart disease (Oliver 1978)...
In the reference list these will appear as:

Referring to the same source more than once
Repeated citations of the same work do not make any difference to the way the citation appears in
the text. A second citation of the Oliver book in the example above, for instance, would still appear in
the text as (Oliver 1978), and if it referred to a direct quotation it would also include the relevant page
number. The work should appear once only in the reference list.
Referri ng to a sourc e which is referr ed to in anoth er sourc e

It is best to quote from the original source, but sometimes you may have to quote a source as it is
quoted in another (secondary) work. Where this happens you must make clear in your text both the
source you are quoting and the secondary source you are quoting from. However it is the secondary
source (the one you have actually looked at) that appears in the reference list.#p#分页标题#e#

PUTTING TOGETHER YO UR REFEREN CES –
OB VIOUS BUT OFTEN -FORGOTTEN PO INTS
• Keep notes as you go along – keep a list of the works you look at as you look at them, on index
cards or a database or even on a piece of paper.
• If you write down a potentially useful quotation, write down the reference along with it.
• If you photocopy something to read later, make sure that all the information you will need for your
reference is on the photocopy – if it isn’t, write it on now.
• Never rely on memory for referencing. Check everything.
• Never leave referencing until the last minute. If the work you’re referring to is not your own
personal copy you may not get access to it again to check details.
• Make sure every source you cite is in the reference list.
• Make sure your reference list is in the right order (i.e. alphabetical by author, then by year of
publication if you cite more than one source by the same author).
• Make sure you are using your style consistently. If you have imported references from elsewhere
they may not conform to the required style – always check.
• Allow plenty of time for final checking.

(三) APA格式

APA格式

APA格式是一个为广泛接受的研究dissertation撰写格式，特别针对社会科学领域的研究，规范学术文献的引用和参考文献的撰写方法，以及表格、图表、注脚和附录的编排方式。APA格式因采用哈佛大学文章引用的格式而广为人知，其“作者和日期”的引用方式和“括号内引用法”相当著名。　　
正式来说，APA格式指的就是美国心理学会（American Psychological Association）出版的《美国心理协会刊物准则》，目前已出版至第五版（ISBN 1-55798-791-2），总页数超过400页，而此协会是目前在美国具有权威性的心理学学者组织。APA格式起源于1929年，当时只有7页，被刊登在《心理学期刊（Psychological Bulletin）》。　　另一种相当有名的dissertation格式为MLA格式（The MLA Style Manual），主要被应用在人文学科，如文学、比较文学、文学批评和文化研究等。

格式
虽然有些作者对于APA格式其中的一些规范感到不妥，但APA格式仍备受推崇。期刊采用同一种格式能够让读者有效率的浏览和搜集文献资料，写作时感到不确定的学者们发现这样的格式手册非常有帮助。譬如，手册中的“非歧视语言”章节明文禁止作者针对女性和弱势团体使用歧视的文字，不过使用APA格式的学术期刊有时也会为了让文章更有条理而允许作者忽略此规定。#p#分页标题#e#

标题
根据APA格式，标题是用来组织文章，使得其有层次架构。APA格式规定了文章内“标题”的特定格式（1到5级），此详细内容可参阅《美国心理协会刊物手册》第五版的第113页，级数和格式如下：　　第1级：置中大小写标题（Centered Uppercase and Lowercase Heading）　　第2级：置中、斜体、大小写标题（Centered, Italicized, Uppercase and Lowercase Heading）　　第3级：靠左对齐、斜体、大小写标题（Flush Left, Italicized, Uppercase and Lowercase Side Heading）　　第4级：缩排、斜体、小写标题，最后加句号（Indented, italicized, lowercase paragraph heading ending with a period）　　第5级：置中大写标题（CENTERED UPPERCASE HEADING）　　根据APA格式，若文章标题有：　　1个级数：使用第1级标题　　2个级数：使用第1和第3级标题　　3个级数：使用第1、第3、和第4级标题　　4个级数：使用第1、第2、第3、和第4级标题　　5个级数：使用第5、第1、第2、第3、和第4级标题　　（按：2个级数以上以大标题→小标题方式使用）　　注意：　　目前并无六级以上的标题规定。 APA格式不允许“数字”和“单一字母”出现在标题之首。

文献引用
文献引用是在一篇文章的段落或文字之中“参考来源”的标注。APA格式使用哈佛大学文章引用格式，通常来说，一个引用包含了作者名和发表日期，以括号夹注（有时会再加上页数），放在引用文字或句子之后。　　详细的引用或参考资料则放在位于文章最后的“参考文献”或“Works Cited”部分。APA格式明确的定义“参考文献”只放入文章内容引用的来源，所以有些文章才会有“参考文献（Reference）”和“Bibliography”的分别。（Bibliography另外包含了作者背景知识的来源，不一定是直接被引用的文献。）　　单一作者　　格式应为“（作者姓氏（非首字母），发表年份）”。若作者姓名在文章中已被提及，只需标出年份就好（若需要可加上页数），仍需使用括号。多位作者以上同理。　　A recent study found a possible genetic cause of alcoholism (Pauling, 2005). Pauling (2005) discovered a possible genetic cause of alcoholism. 　　两位作者　　作者姓氏必须以他们的名字在其发表文章内的顺序来排序。若两个作者都在括号内引用，名字中间需加上“＆”符号；若不在括号内则使用“and”。　　A recent study found a possible genetic cause of alcoholism (Pauling & Liu, 2005). Pauling and Liu (2005) discovered a possible genetic cause of alcoholism. 　　3至5位作者　　第一次引用时需列举全部的作者，往后若引用相同的文献，只需举出最主要的作者，再加上“et al.”。但是，在参考文献部分，全部作者的姓名皆须列举出来。　　A recent study found a possible genetic cause of alcoholism (Pauling, Liu, & Guo, 2005). Pauling, Liu, and Guo (2005) conducted a study that discovered a possible genetic cause of alcoholism. Pauling et al. (2005) discovered a possible genetic cause of alcoholism.

参考文献清单
APA格式规定“参考文献”部分的人名必须以姓氏的字母顺序来排列，包括姓氏的前缀。譬如，Martin de Rijke应被改成“De Rijke, M.”；Saif Al Falasi则改成“Al-Falasi, Saif.”。（阿拉伯文名字通常在姓氏和前缀之间加上连字号“−”，所以姓氏和前缀自成一体。）
