  • Citation rules:
    • According to the Publication manual of the American Psychological Association, cite this source as a book chapter in a nonperiodical source (APA, 2001, 4.13, pp. 229-230).
    • According to the Bedford handbook, this is identified as “Article or Chapter in an Edited Book” (see Bedford handbook online, http://www.dianahacker.com/resdoc/p04_c09_s2.html, number 17).
                     
  • Tip:  Items in this reference book have no identifiable authors. Insert the title of each item in place of the author(s), then follow with date in parenthesis (APA, 2001, 4.08, p. 225). 
                   
  • Tip:  A reference like this one can be confusing because each title is the name of the psychologist. Furthermore, each title begins with the first name of the psychologist. Enter the title as it appears in the book.
