APA style is the standard for formatting papers and citing references in the social sciences.

Use citation tools within article databases to simplify the process of creating your list of references.  

Here's how:

• Select the title of the article you want to cite.

• Look for a tools section and click on Cite.

• Copy and paste the article citation into your list of references.

• Verify the citation against official APA style sources, as citations from databases ARE OFTEN formatted incorrectly.
