How to Cite a Book with a Single Author
• Hormones such as oxytocin flood the brain
when a person is experiencing the feeling of
love
• Heterosexual men’s brains are hard-wired to
desire sex with multiple female partners,
which tends to work against attempts to
remain monogamous (Wolowitz 68)
How to Cite an Article or a Web Page with
a Single Author
• Social anxiety disorder may have both
neurological and psychological root causes
• Ingestion of alcohol can initially help ease
social phobias, but used in excess it can
worsen the symptoms (Koothrappali 3)
How to Cite an Article (or a Book or a Web
Page) Written by Two Authors
• Homosociality
describes
same-sex
relationships that are not sexual in
nature, but rather are based in
friendship, mentorship, or others; a
modern colloquial expression to convey
this amongst men is a ‘bromance’
(Koothrappali and Wolowitz 2)
How to Cite an Article (or a Book or a
Web Page) with Three Authors
• Asperger’s is an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) that is
characterized by significant difficulties in social interaction,
alongside restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior and
interests. It differs from other autism spectrum disorders by its
relative preservation of linguistic and cognitive development.
Although not required for diagnosis, physical clumsiness and
atypical use of language are frequently reported. An individual with
Asperger’s may be an intellectual genius in a particular field yet
have difficulty with social norms and communication (Hofstadter,
Koothrappali, and Wolowitz 1)
How to Cite an Article (or a Book or a
Web Page) with Four or More Authors
• Group dynamics refers to a system of behaviors
and psychological processes occurring within a
social group (intragroup dynamics), or between
social groups (intergroup dynamics). The study of
group dynamics can be useful in understanding
decision-making behavior, tracking the spread of
diseases in society, creating effective therapy
techniques, and following the emergence and
popularity of new ideas and technologies
(Hofstadter, Cooper, Koothrappali, and Wolowitz 4)
A Second (and Equally Acceptable) Way to Cite an Article
(or a Book or a Web Page) with Four or More Authors

(intergroup dynamics). The study of group dynamics can

(Hofstadter et al. 4)
How to Cite a Web Page (or Article)
with a Title But No Author
• A widely-held yet incorrect belief is that most
human beings use only ten percent of the full
potential capacity of their brains; in fact, most
people use far more than ten percent of their
brain-power at times, although no humans
have yet been proven to be capable of tapping
into the full potential (that is, use 100%) of
their brains for any measurable period of time

• Are you beginning to see a pattern here? You should. Because doing an intext citation is really, really simple when you know the name of the author
or authors. Whether you are citing a book, an article (print or electronic),
a web page, or whatever, if you have the name of the author or the names
of the authors, you just put the last name(s) of the author(s), and if you
were quoting or paraphrasing from a specific page, the page number(s).
That’s it! All that other information (title, publisher, year of publication,
URL, whatever) just goes on your Works Cited page. But in terms of what
you put as an in-text citation (at the end of a paragraph in a Word
document, or at the bottom of a slide in a Powerpoint, or at the bottom of
a screen on a PREZI), if you have the name of the author(s) that is all you
need to put, plus--if applicable--a page number or page numbers. If you
don’t have an author name, then you go to using the title (this applies to
books, articles, web pages, etc.). THE ONLY TIME YOU EVER PUT JUST THE
URL OF A WEB PAGE AS YOUR IN-TEXT CITATION IS WHEN THAT PAGE HAS
NO AUTHOR, NO CORPORATE/INSTITUTIONAL AUTHOR OR INSTITUTIONAL
SPONSOR (LIKE A UNIVERSITY), NO EDITOR, NO PUBLISHER, NO WEB
MASTER, AND ALSO NO TITLE! You should try to avoid citing those kinds of
web pages anyway, because they are generally not very credible/reliable
sources of information.
How to Cite a Web Page with No Author (Individual, Corporate, or
Institutional), No Sponsor, No Editor, No Publisher, No Web Master,
and No Title (you should try to avoid citing sources like this anyway
because generally they are not credible, reliable sources)
