How Can I Cite a Survey in APA Style?

If you have been hunting for instructions or guidelines on how to cite a survey in APA style, then you have spent a lot of time online looking for such a guideline in the APA style. I have found two resources that will come in handy when you are citing surveys within your research papers or other types of publications that you may be working on now.

These two websites give a whole lot of good information on how to professionally cite your survey reports or survey sources for your paper, no matter what the topic may be. One of these sites is located at the library at Nova.edu, and it gives a detailed description to follow, on just what to put into your paper when citing surveys using the APA style system. First of all, the instructions for citing say that you should begin with the name of the author, the title of the survey report, the place of publication, and include a retrieval statement if the survey is an online survey.

Next, there are many good tips on how to cite in the APA style for practically any type of paper, including surveys, listed at Myrin.ursinus.edu, and that information is located under the Authors With Same Surname section of the website page, located at the preceding URL.

Utilize these two sources for additional information on how you can cite a survey in APA style.
