Your list of references in an MLA paper will be called "Works Cited," and that is the title that should go at the top of the page in the center. (This is not the same thing as the header, which is where your last name and the page number go.)
Remember, punctuation is important.
After the Works Cited, you would list each entry alphabetically by author. List the author (last name, comma, first name, period), title (book or main publication title, comma, article or short work title), publisher,publication city, and date (publisher, colon, city, comma, date), and page numbers of the borrowed material (i.e. 32-46).
Other things that you would need to include can be found at this site owl.English.purdue.edu/owl/resource/557/01/, depending on the *type* of entry... websites require the URL and don't always have page numbers, magazines require the magazine title and the article title, etc... each entry should have a hanging indent, meaning that the first line is flush with the left margin and the rest of the entry is indented five spaces. You do not have to do this by hand if you have a word processing program. They can do it automatically.
There is an example here ccc.commnet.edu/mla/sample.shtmlif you are looking for an overall look. If you need details about how to enter a movie or a book with multiple authors, or other types of entries, use the link in the previous paragraph.
Also, the definative authority is the MLA Guide, which I believe is in its sixth edition. It can be found at most public and academic libraries, or can be purchased at any university/college bookstore, or most retail book dealers.
To write a third-person paper in APA style, you should use third-person point of view (e.g., "he," "she," "they") and avoid using first person pronouns (e.g., "I," "we"). Ensure to include a title page, abstract, introduction, method, results, discussion, and references sections in the paper. Additionally, follow APA guidelines for formatting, in-text citations, and reference list.
All of your in text citations will require an entry on the reference page. See the related link, The OWL at Purdue, for reference page guidelines.
IPAC style is a referencing style commonly used in the field of psychology. When writing in IPAC style, authors provide in-text citations using the author's last name and the year of publication, along with a corresponding reference list at the end of the document. It follows specific guidelines for formatting references to ensure clarity and consistency in academic writing in psychology.
It is best to make a reference list as you go along. Otherwise, it can be quite a task once the main writing has been completed.
Parenthetical reference
In APA format, a reference list comes at the end of the document, while a bibliography is optional and comes after the reference list. A reference list includes only the sources cited in the document, while a bibliography may include sources consulted but not cited.
Yes, the reference list and reference page rough draft are the same. They both refer to a list of sources cited in a document or research paper. This list typically follows a specific format depending on the citation style used, such as APA or MLA.
The reference list is a list of sources cited in the document.

The Harvard referencing style is a common citation style used in academic writing to acknowledge the sources of information and ideas used in a paper. It involves citing sources within the text and providing a reference list at the end of the paper.
Actually, you can use "etc." The official APA style blog wrote a post about using Latin abbreviations. "Etc" does not need to be spelled out. Put a comma before if used to end a list of at least two other items.
To write a reference at the end of a page, use a consistent citation style such as APA, MLA, or Chicago. List the author's name, publication year, title, and source of the information cited. Make sure to format the reference according to the specific guidelines of the chosen citation style.
Chicago Referencing comprises both the footnotes and bibliography style, used most frequently in the humanities, and the parenthetic and reference list style, used most frequently in the sciences. The former resembles the Oxford Referencing Style and the latter resembles the Harvard Referencing Style (both of these are covered above). I have provided a link below to an article explaining how to use the Chicago referencing format...
