APA Citation question
#1
Hopefully I can get some traffic in this weird little subforum. :confused:

I want to cite something in a book that was reprinted from somewhere else. Should I cite the information from the book I read it in, or from the periodical that it was originally printed in? I have the requisite info to do either one.

Where you got it from. Because where the original piece came from might be just slightly different.
Thats the way I was taught atleast

Ok, I pulled out my "Writer's Handbook" from my last writing class and it says:

[COLOR="Red"]INDIRECT SOURCE: If you use a source that was cited in another source (secondary source), name the original source in your signal phrase. List the secondary source in your reference list and include it in your parenthetical citation, preceded by the words "as cited in." In the following example, Critser is the secondary source.

Former surgeon general Dr. Satcher described "a nation of young
people seriously at risk of starting out obese and dooming themselves
to the difficult tast of overcoming a tough illness" (as cited in Critser,
2003, p. 4).

Hope this helps.

Also, be sure your teacher is ok with this. My last professor wouldn't have allowed an indirect source in a term paper- if there was an "as cited in" we had to pull that source and use it. I have only had 1 class that was hard core about APA citing, so maybe it was the class- or the teacher- or the subject, who knows. I'm not sure that my other teachers much cared. Still, it's worth asking if this is a big final paper.

It is my case analysis for my EC Business Policy course. It should be okay since it is the course textbook itself that I am citing; the indirect source is the periodical on which my case study is based. Thanks for looking out, though. Wink
