Accuracy Disclaimer

The APA citation generator tool on theapacitationgenerator.com formats citations based on the rules published in the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 7th Edition (2020). We make every effort to ensure accuracy, but no automated tool can guarantee that every generated citation will be perfect in all circumstances.

You are responsible for verifying all citations before submitting academic work. Always cross-reference generated citations against your institution's style guide and the original APA Publication Manual when in doubt.
