Question 9 Which is the proper system for pairing the in-text citations and references you use in a single essay? While your references page will include all of the proper APA information about a source, the in-text citations should be much shorter and should include only the author’s name, nothing else. Your references page should include an entry for each time you use a source. For example, if you use the same article by Smith three times in your essay, then you should list that same article by Smith three times in your references page. Your references page should include all of the sources you read and considered while planning and writing your essay, whether they are used and cited in-text in your essay itself or not. Your references page should include only sources actually used and cited within your essay; your reader should be able to find a source on your references page based on the information you provide within your essay when introducing and citing your source. For example, if your citation is (Smith, 2020), then the References entry for that source should begin with Smith and should be placed in alphabetical order within the list.
