      APA 7 style of the design of the reference list in scientific articles Scopus/Web of Science

      14.10.2021

      When writing a research paper and publishing it on international platforms, an important point is to maintain a clear structure and writing algorithm. The research paper must remain structured both in its main part and in the list of references. Bibliographic description should meet the requirements for publication. Key components such as data about the author, source, title, edition must be ordered on the basis of the format of the primary source (book, article, dissertation). Scientific work when published on Scopus and Web of Science must contain a list of references, designed on the model of APA 7 Style.

      What are the features and benefits of APA 7 Style?

      This is a common style of referencing, introduced by the American Psychological Association. Scientific paper is designed using APA Style, as the rules of registration are quite simple and clear, but they also have their own nuances. In this article, we will consider them in more detail. Among the important principles of APA Style allocate the following: scientific work should contain all the specified sources in the reference list; the finished material includes all kinds of references (in-text, block references). In-text references consist of the author (or editor, if there is no author), the year of publication, and also include the cited material. The citation is submitted in quotation marks and a reference to the author at the end of the citation or at the beginning. The research paper includes fully truthful references and a bibliographic description. The design of papers in this style is characterized by logical presentation and clarity.

      Arranging the list of references

      According to APA Style rules, a scientific text ends with a list of references, which begins with a new page and meets a number of requirements. Among the main rules of the list of references are:

      • material that is cited in the article in the list is given in alphabetical order (author or editor's surname, in the absence of an author, or by the first letter of the title);
      • if a work cites several works by the same author, the order of the record is determined chronologically by year of publication (from the earliest sources to the latest);
      • each source in the list is fed on a new line and aligned to the width;
      • an important point is that if a scientific work contains more than 7 authors, the list indicates the first six authors' names, separated by a comma, and then puts three dots;
      • author's surname, initials are written according to the rules of transliteration, but the data of foreign authors are given in the original language, without transliteration. The names of books and articles are transliterated, but the English translation is given in square brackets;

      Rules for bibliographic description of the APA style list of sources

      We have already analyzed the peculiarities of style and the rules for ordering material in the list, and now we will consider the detailed algorithm by which the source is submitted to the list. In a generalized form, each list entry contains the basic components, such as the author's last name, the year of publication, the title of the material, and data about the place of publication, but each item has its own characteristics. Let us consider each source separately.

      1. Most often the bibliographic description consists of books. The algorithm for recording a book is as follows: author (surname, initials), year, title of the book, edition (city, publishing house). For example, Ильин А. П. (1984). Психология эмоций, Москва. Аква.

      Books without an author are written as follows: book title, year, edition (place, publisher). Part of the book is filed differently, namely: the author of the quoted chapter (surname. initials), year, title of the chapter, title of the book, pages, edition (place, publishing house). Multivolume editions are written as follows: author (surname, initials), editor's surname, year, title, edition number, volume range, place of publication, publisher.

      1. Research papers are often submitted with citations of articles from journals. The articles are formatted as follows: author (surname, initials), year, article title, journal title, journal number, pages. For example, Moroz A. М. (2011). Peculiarities of mental development of children of preschool age. Journal of Practical Psychologist, 5(8), 74-85.
      2. Another source that is important to analyze is citing electronic sources. When citing an electronic source, it is important to include the web address or digital object identifier (doi), which is often used to refer to scholarly articles.

      3.1 Newspaper article: author information, title, year, date of publication, URL, date of reference

      3.2 Article from an electronic journal: author data, journal title, issue, URL, date of reference.

      3.3 E-book: author data, book title, city, publisher, year, pages, URL, circulation date.

      3.4 Website: article title, URL, date of reference.

      1. Regulatory legal acts are drawn up as follows: the name of the law (statute, order), the number of the law, the number of the section and number of the article, the year of approval. For example, About the National Police No. 580-VII, sec. I Art. 8. (2016).
      2. The newspaper citation is compiled as follows: author, year of publication, article title, newspaper name, pages.
      3. The information taken from the encyclopedia will look like this: author, year of publication, article title, encyclopedia title, volume, pages, place of publication, editorial board.
      4. The abstract or dissertation is described as follows: surname, initials, title of the work, university in which the defense took place, city, year, pages.
      5. Articles in the Proceedings of the conference: surname, initials, title of the presentation, title of the Proceedings of the conference, information about the conference, place of publication, year, pages.
      6. Archival materials: document name, archive name, fund number, inventory number, case number, pages.
      7. The standards are composed as follows: title of the document, number, date of enactment, place of publication, publisher, year, pages.

      Conclusion

      Thus, we have analyzed the features of editing scientific papers under the rules of APA 7 Style, identified its advantages, and evaluated its simplicity and logicality. This style of design makes the scientific text more structured and functional, as references in the text are true and give the opportunity to quickly navigate and find, if necessary, the full version of the publication. Also, this style is comfortable in that it gives a clear understanding of how to properly design the bibliographic data of the sources used, which in turn is very valuable in publications in international editions.
