Parenthetical or in-text reference
•
A
parenthetical
or
in-text
reference is the term
for citing material within the body of your paper.
Whenever you summarize, paraphrase or quote
another author's material you must include a
brief citation (the author's last name and a page
number) to tell the reader what information you
have borrowed and from where. That brief
citation tells the reader that the complete citation
can be found at the end of your paper in the
Reference list.
Example of a parenthetical reference
A longstanding concern in the study of children's social
and emotional development is the nature of the
relationship between television violence and aggressive
behavior (Simmons, Stalsworth, & Wentzel, 1999).

When you write (Simmons, Stalsworth, & Wentzel,
1999) at the end of a sentence, the reader knows that
you have borrowed or summarized ideas from an
article by Simmons, Stalsworth, & Wentzel published in
1999 and that the full citation to that work can be
found in the Reference list at the end of your paper.
Parenthetical for summary/paraphrase
Paik and Comstock (1994) also suggested that
cartoons might be harmful because young
children have difficulty distinguishing reality
from fantasy.

[tip: avoid using “said” or “wrote”]
Parenthetical for a quotation
Findings from Bandura and Huston (1961) indicate that
for preschoolers, observation of aggressive models is a
"sufficient condition for producing imitative aggression"
(p. 317), regardless of the nature of the relationship
between the model demonstrating the behaviors and the
child.

Tip: Quotations should not stand alone in a sentence but
should be worked into your narrative. The quote is
introduced with the author's name and publication date
so that only the page number is needed after the quote in
parentheses.
