APA referencing
Also called apa style, apa 7
APA referencing is an author-date citation style similar in structure to Harvard but with its own specific formatting rules, commonly required in psychology and US-based programmes, always confirm which specific style a programme or journal requires rather than assuming.
In context
You'll usually need this when your programme or journal specifies APA as the required citation style.
