To cite a conference proceeding within your text in APA style, use the surname of the authors(s) and year of the conference in parentheses. All listed authors should be included in your in-text citation, regardless of whether or not they were present at the conference. If there are two authors, include both surnames separated by an ampersand (&) in parenthetical citations. If there are more than two authors, included the surname of the first listed author followed by “et al.”
The templates and examples below show how to create an in-text citation for a conference proceeding in APA style.
