APA means American
Psychological Association, a professional
organization.
It identifies the source of information in the body of your
writing.
What is an in-text
citation?
![Page 5: IN-TEXT CITATIONS for Paraphrases APA Style. What is an in-text citation? What are paraphrases? What is APA style ?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082404/5a4d1b467f8b9ab0599a35c7/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
For paraphrasing remember :
Same meaning but different
words.
For example, There are 2 and
a quarter million people
in Dubai. Change to: Dubai has a
population of 2.25 million.

You do not need quotation marks for words which are not direct quotations (for example
paraphrases or summaries). But you need to note the source of the
information.
Do it like this : (Author, year)
You put it in the body of your writing, not at the bottom of a page
or at the end.
![Page 7: IN-TEXT CITATIONS for Paraphrases APA Style. What is an in-text citation? What are paraphrases? What is APA style ?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082404/5a4d1b467f8b9ab0599a35c7/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Page numbers are not noted in APA for paraphrases.

Here is what it looks like.
Blah da dee da da da Dubai is the most
interesting city in the world (Smith,
2005). Blah da dee da da da.
If the citation is at the end of a sentence,
put a full stop outside the parenthesis
mark.

What about just a number from a table, graph
or chart ?
For example, you see a table
that says 4 ½ million
ladybugs live in the UAE.
Country PopulationLadybugs
UAE 4.5 millionOman 3.2 millionQatar 1 million
![Page 10: IN-TEXT CITATIONS for Paraphrases APA Style. What is an in-text citation? What are paraphrases? What is APA style ?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082404/5a4d1b467f8b9ab0599a35c7/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Did you count the 4 ½ million yourself ? No !
You read it.
Write it the same way but add the page number :
(Smith, 2005, p. 4)
So, you must note the
source of your information.
![Page 11: IN-TEXT CITATIONS for Paraphrases APA Style. What is an in-text citation? What are paraphrases? What is APA style ?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082404/5a4d1b467f8b9ab0599a35c7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The complete citation (full author name, year, title, city, publisher, & pages) must be in the
Bibliography or Reference List at the end of your paper.
![Page 12: IN-TEXT CITATIONS for Paraphrases APA Style. What is an in-text citation? What are paraphrases? What is APA style ?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082404/5a4d1b467f8b9ab0599a35c7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
If the author’s name appears as part of your
text, write only the year in parentheses after the author’s
name.
For example : Smith (2005) claims that Dubai is the
most interesting city in the world.
Here is a different situation.
![Page 13: IN-TEXT CITATIONS for Paraphrases APA Style. What is an in-text citation? What are paraphrases? What is APA style ?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082404/5a4d1b467f8b9ab0599a35c7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
If the author has written 2 or more
items in your bibliography in
the same year…
Put the letter “a” after the year for the first item, “b” for the next item
etc.
For example :(Smith, 2005a)
![Page 14: IN-TEXT CITATIONS for Paraphrases APA Style. What is an in-text citation? What are paraphrases? What is APA style ?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082404/5a4d1b467f8b9ab0599a35c7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
What if there are 2
authors ?
Write both last names with the ampersand “&”
then comma and year.
For example :(Smith & Jones,
2005)
![Page 15: IN-TEXT CITATIONS for Paraphrases APA Style. What is an in-text citation? What are paraphrases? What is APA style ?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082404/5a4d1b467f8b9ab0599a35c7/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
What if the source is a website?
Again, write the author’s last name and
year.
But, if there is no author, write the first 3 words of the title of the webpage in italics
and the year.
![Page 16: IN-TEXT CITATIONS for Paraphrases APA Style. What is an in-text citation? What are paraphrases? What is APA style ?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082404/5a4d1b467f8b9ab0599a35c7/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
For citations that do not seem to fit the examples, look in a book like this.
It is on the library shelf at
BF76.7 .P47 2007
Or, enter “APA” in a title or keyword
search of the library catalogue
to find similar books.

I hope this helps you understand how to write APA in-text citations for
paraphrases.
Ask your teacher or your friendly librarian
if you have any questions.
