How to Cite Book Chapter in Edited Book

  e-SBO       Friday, March 1, 2019
How to Cite Book Chapter in Edited Book by using The American Psychological Association (APA) Referencing System. The APA (American Psychological Association) style requires two elements: in-text citations throughout your assignment, and a reference list at the end.
To cite information directly or indirectly, there are two ways to acknowledge citations:
1) Make it a part of a sentence or 2) put it in parentheses at the end of the sentence
Direct quotation – use quotation marks around the quote and include page numbers
1) Cohen and Lotan (2014) argue that “many different kinds of abilities are essential for any profession” (p.151).

2) “Many different kinds of abilities are essential for any profession” (Cohen & Lotan, 2014, p.151).
N.B. See the Library’s APA webpage for a quotation of 40 or more words.
