Journal Article Reporting Standards

Reporting standards are a way of showing your work. Psychology scholars adhere to reporting standards to help make their research more reproducible. When publishing original research in a journal article, it's important to report the goals, hypotheses, and detailed methods of a study so that others can evaluate the rigor of those methods and try to replicate its findings. Learn more about what should be reported in a journal article using the resources below.

Citation Management Tools

Citation management systems help store references, serve as note-taking tools, and can auto-generate citations in a preferred format, including APA style. Please see our Citation Management Tools guide for information on our support for tools such as RefWorks, Zotero, EndNote, and others.
