    Question



    Identify the correct order of the following information about a research article, according to the APA style of writing journal article references.
    A. Volume number
    B. Year of publication
    C. DOI
    D. Title of article
    E. Name of journal
    Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

    A.

    C, D, B, A, E

    B.

    B, D, E, A, C

    C.

    D, E, A, B, C

    D.

    D, E, C, A, B

    Correct option is B


    The correct answer is (b) B, D, E, A, C. In APA style, the correct format for referencing a journal article is structured as follows: Author(s). (Year of Publication). Title of article. Name of Journal, Volume number(Issue number), page range. DOI.
    Thus, the order specified in option (b) reflects the sequence in which these elements should appear. The Year of Publication appears in parentheses after the author(s) name, followed by the Title of the Article. Next, the Name of the Journal is italicized and followed by the Volume Number (also italicized), with the DOI placed at the end, if available.
    Information Booster: 1. Author(s): Names of the author(s) are listed first, with initials followed by the last name.
    2. Year of Publication: Enclosed in parentheses, placed immediately after the author’s name.
    3. Title of the Article: Capitalization follows sentence case, where only the first word of the title, subtitle (if any), and proper nouns are capitalized.
    4. Name of Journal: Italicized and capitalized according to journal standards.
    5. Volume Number: Italicized, with the issue number (if present) in parentheses without italics.
    6. DOI: Digital Object Identifier, unique to each article, providing a permanent link to the article’s online location.
