What happens when you bullsh!t your way through it? What's that called?  |
In-text citations are basically pointers to your references page in APA format. If you cite something in-text, you must also have an entry for it on your references page.
BS'ing through it is called "failure" in my school. Gets you put on academic probation.
(full disclosure: I loathe, despise, and otherwise feel negatively about APA formatting. Pshrynk, I'm SURE it's your fault, somehow.
And besides that, why were psychologists coming up with a writing format anyway? Shouldn't they have been, oh, I don't know, psychoanalyzing someone or something?)
