*Sociology

Common citation styles for sociology include the American Sociological Association (ASA) Style and the Chicago Author-Date style. Some instructors also permit the use of American Psychological Association (APA) style. For course assignments, always check your syllabus or assignment description to see if the professor has named a specific style you are to use. If you're submitting a manuscript to a journal, be sure to check the journal's information for authors on what style they expect.
