section of this book. It would be a remarkably pedantic tutor who did not think
this was a good idea as well.
Referencing books
The format for referencing a book is the same in the text as for journals. In the
reference section record: author’s last name, author’s initials, year of publication
in parentheses, title of book in italics, place of publication and name of publisher.
For example:
Latto, J., & Latto, R. (2009). Study skills for psychology students. Maidenhead, England:
McGraw-Hill/Open University Press.
Referencing specific chapters in edited books
The format for referencing a chapter in the References section is: author’s last
name, author’s initials, year of publication in parentheses, title of chapter, name
of editor(s), the editor(s) abbreviation in parentheses, title of book, page numbers,
place of publication and name of publisher. For example:
Latto, R. (1995) The brain of the beholder. In R. Gregory, J. Harris, P. Heard, & D. Rose
(Eds.), The artful eye (pp. 66–94). Oxford, England: Oxford University Press.
Referencing work from a secondary source
This is the thing that seems to give students most trouble, but the principle is
quite logical. In the text, name the original work and the secondary source:
Lea (1999, as cited in Latto & Latto, 2009)
Then in the References section just list the primary source:
APPENDIX 1 179
Latto, J., & Latto, R. (2009). Study skills for psychology students. Maidenhead, England:
McGraw-Hill/Open University Press.
