Citation Style for Research Papers
Which should you use?
Ask each of your teachers which style they want you to use.
If they have no preference, you can use any or follow these
guidelines:
- APA: psychology, education, and other social
sciences.
- MLA: literature, arts, and humanities.
- AMA: medicine, health, and biological
sciences.
- Turabian: designed for college students
to use with all subjects.
- Chicago: used with all subjects in the
"real world" by books,
magazines, newspapers, and other
non-scholarly
publications.
