Referencing and Academic Integrity

APIC, CHS & HELI disciplines use the APA Referencing style which is comprised of two elements: in-text citations and a reference list. 

1. In-text citation/reference 

• is located in the text (body) 
• provides brief information 
• may appear more than once (depending on how many times you use the source) 

E.g.: There are various ethical implications in business decision-making process (Ferrell, et al., 2017).  

          Ferrell et al.,  (2017) discussed the implications of ethical decision-making. 

2. Reference list 

• is located at the end of the paper 
• provides the complete information 
• appears only once at the end 

E.g.: Fry, H., Ketteridge, S., Ketteridge, S., & Marshall, S. (Eds.). (2014). A handbook for teaching and learning in higher education: Enhancing academic practice (4th ed.). Routledge.
