The norms for citation must be rigorously observed. All studies mentioned should be followed by the authors’ names and date of publication. Avoid any secondary citation, when the original can be easily recuperated. Only articles effectively investigated can be listed in References. Do not use terms such as apud, op. cit., id. ibidem etc. They are not in conformity with APA norms. Use preferably words such as: “cited by”, “article mentioned above” etc. Every study cited in the text must appear in the Reference list. Only the studies consulted and mentioned in text must appear in this section. a)Indications for citations in the body text: * Multiple Authorship Works - Two authors: Cite the two names in text whenever the work is referred, followed by the year of the work inside parenthesis - Three to five authors: List all the authors in the signal phrase the time the source is cited for the first time, followed by year of the study inside parenthesis. Use the word “and” between the authors’ last names if they are cited on text. When they are cited inside parenthesis, their names should be separated by the ampersand (&). When the same reference is used, use the last name of the first followed by "et al." and the year of the study - Six or more authors: Cite only the last name of the first author, followed by "et al." and the year of the study. However in the Reference section the names of all authors should be mentioned. * Citation of Old or Reprinted Works - Author (date of the original publication/ date when the publication was consulted).
*
Secondary Citation - Citation of a secondary source without using the original work. In this case, list the last name of the author and, in parenthesis, the year, “cited by”, the last name of the secondary source’s author and year of the work. In the Reference section cite only the work consulted. Whenever possible present the bibliographic reference of the secondary source. * Citations by the same author in the same year - After listing the year, add lower case letters, no space. Organize the references in the reference list alphabetically by the title of the article. * Highlighting and suppressions in citations -
