Annotated Bibliography in APA Style

The citation style used in psychology is APA, or American Psychological Association style. I used this style to make an annotated bibliography for my six sources.










The annotated bibliography that I used as an example can be found here
I used this page to help me cite the two social media sources.


Ayra also used APA for her bibliography. She did a better job than I did at summarizing her social media sources (I had trouble with how to summarize something that is 140 characters or less). She also stated the intended audience for each source, which I went back and fixed in my own annotations.

Mehruba used ACS style because she's a biochemistry major. The requirements for the source citation seem less strict than APA, where there are rules for each step of the citation. I like that she stated exactly how each of her sources will help her later in Project 1.

  1. Our annotated bibliographies are much the same as we share the same style guide. Our information for the references/headlines themselves are the same. I am no expert, however, I do believe your annotations were missing a piece of information. The one piece of information I did not see was the question as to who the intended audience was. I believe I may have done this a few times in my own! And I also had trouble with the formatting on the blogpost.
