Parenthetical style: The author’s last name or corporate author and year of publication are placed in parentheses at the end of the sentence. The period comes after the in-text citation.
Example: The key to success for online students is linked to the student’s sense of belonging (Smith, 2022).
Narrative style: The author’s last name or corporate author is not in parentheses because it is part of the sentence. The year of publication immediately follows the author’s last name or corporate author.
Example: According to Smith (2022), success for online students is tied to a student’s sense of belonging to the university community.
