Citations and References

The citation format must conform with the APA styles. In case of doubt and for unspecified issues, the APA latest version and the editorial secretariat can be consulted.

In the Text Citation

All references in the main text are indicated by in-text footnote system. The surname of the author or authors, the date of publication and the page number quoted are indicated by opening parentheses in the appropriate place in the text. If the same sources are referred to again in the text, the same method is applied, abbreviations such as a.g.e., a.g.m. should not be used.  Example: (Timur, 2000: 89)

If the name of the cited author appears in the text, there is no need to repeat the author’s name in brackets. Example: Boratav (2018) refers to the period between 1930-1939 as protectionist-statist industrialisation (pp. 63-88).

If the cited source has two authors, the surnames of both authors should be used. Example: (Özkaplan and Lordoğlu, 2018, 112)

If there are more than two authors, the phrase et al. should be used after the surname of the first author. Example: (Makal et al., 2023)

If there is more than one reference, the references should be separated by semicolons. Example: (Timur, 2000: 89; Boratav, 2018, 55)

For explanations that are not deemed appropriate to be included in the text, the footnote method should be used. The above method should also be applied for the references to be made in this footnote.

References

In the references, only the references cited in the manuscript should be included and alphabetical order should be followed according to the surname of the author.

If more than one work of an author is to be included in the bibliography, the order should be from old to new according to the date of publication. For studies conducted in the same year, the expressions a, b, c. should be used, and these should be the same for references made in the text.
