PSY 0032: Experimental Psychology

Professor Dinh has asked that you use APA style for your projects.

Below are some resources to help you create APA citations. Remember to always double check automatically generated citations (even from library databases) against the official style guide!

When working on several projects that will use the same body of research like you are in this class, it's crucial to keep your research organized. Any system of organization will work as long as it makes sense to you and you use it consistently.

If you would like, you can also explore software that can help you keep your research organized. This is called citation management software. Citation management software helps you store, organize, and generate your citations in your required citation style. It can be an amazing time-saving and organizational tool, but just like web-based citation generators (such as Citation Machine or the cite button in a library database), make sure to double check your citations and the information being input into the generator to make sure that your citations are accurate.

If you are interested in citation management software and want help setting it up, please feel free to ask a librarian for help.

Zotero is a very popular citation management software and accommodates a wide variety of disciplines and citation styles. Below is a link to a research guide explaining how to get started with Zotero from the Hirsch Health Sciences Library at the Boston Health Sciences Campus.
