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.
