3、References Page Formatting

References PageFormatting

References follow the text in a section headed REFERENCES (use first-levelhead format identified earlier).

All references should be double-spaced and use a hanging indent.

Use title case for all titles (capitalize all words except prepositionssuch as of, between, through), articles (such as a, the,and an), and conjunctions (such as but, and, or;however, capitalize them if they begin the title or the subtitle).

Capitalize only the first word in hyphenated compound words, unless thesecond word is a proper noun or adjective (for example, don’t capitalize itin The Issue of Self-preservation for Women, but do capitalize itin Terrorist Rhetoric: The Anti-American Sentiment).

All references should be in alphabetical order by first authors’ lastnames.

Include first names for all authors, rather than initials, but usefirst-name and middle-name initials if an author used initials in the originalpublication.

List all authors. It is not acceptable to use et al. in theReferences section unless the work was authored by a committee.

For repeated authors or editors, include the full name in all references(note: this is a change from the third edition of the ASA Style Guide).Arrange references for the same author in chronological order, beginning withthe oldest.

4、Manuscript Writing Style

ManuscriptWriting Style

In addition to providing guidelines for the general formatting of amanuscript and for in-text citations and the page of references, which followsa document, the ASA Style Guide also specifies a particularstyle of writing for presenting sociological work. 

Basics

Generally, avoid writing in the first person, unless instructed to do so.Avoid giving an opinion, unless the purpose of the writing is to make anargument.

Use the active voice (click here to view theOWL's resources on active voice).

Spell out words such as percent, chi-square and versus,rather than using their abbreviations (except when presenting data in tables orgraphs).

Avoiding Plagiarism

Whenever using data that someone else collected, or whenever referring tothat data, or whenever using another person’s ideas, whether published,unpublished, or available electronically, reference the author(s). This is truewhether quoting their work verbatim or paraphrasing it (click here to view theOWL's resources on avoiding plagiarism).

Clarity

Use straightforward language, avoiding jargon, superlatives, wordy phrasesand common expressions.

Pay close attention to such “nuts and bolts” issues as consistent use ofverb tenses and accuracy in spelling, punctuation, sentence construction, andfollowing a well-thought-out outline.

Bias

Gender

Unless gendered terms are important to the analysis or demographics, usenongendered terms wherever possible.

Instead of man, men, or mankind,use person, people, individual, or humankind.

Then there will be peace for mankind becomes Then there will be peace for humankind.

When appropriate, use a plural noun (people) or pronoun (they).Replace gendered pronouns with an article when possible (the insteadof hers).

A girl can play her guitar becomes People can play their guitars or Aperson can play the guitar.

Race and Ethnicity

Avoid racial and ethnic stereotyping.

Be as specific as possible when using terms that describe a race orethnicity.

Chinese is more specificthan Asian; Puerto Rican is more specificthan Latino.

Use the following terms:

·       African American (no hyphen)

·       black (not capitalized)

·       white (not capitalized)

·       Hispanic, Chicano, Latino, orLatina (Latino if gender is unknown or known to be male; Latinaif known to be female)

·       American Indian or NativeAmerican (no hyphen)

·       Asian or Asian American (nohyphen)

Avoid using the following:

·       Negro

·       Afro-American

·       Oriental

Acronym Usage

The first time you use an acronym, you should give the full name with the acronymin parenthesis.

Afterwards, you can use only the acronym.

According to a Department of Energy (DoE) report...
Later in the text:
The DoE suggests that...

Verb Tense

Different sections of a paper may call for different verb tenses but usethe same tense within each section.

Literature Review

Use the past tense to communicate that the research being reviewed hasbeen completed.

In their study of declining congregations, Hoge andRoozen (1979) found that institutional factors were also important.

It is possible to mix tenses if it helps to explain thefinding.

In their study of declining congregations, Hoge andRoozen (1979) found that institutional factors may also help to explaincongregational decline.

Methods Section

Use the past tense to explain the methods used in the research.

Data collection consisted of twenty interviews in eachcongregation between the months of November 2010 and February 2011.

Results Section

Use either past or present tense but don’t mix them.

These results suggest that institutional factors do helpexplain congregational decline.

OR:

These results suggested that institutional factors didhelp explain congregational decline.

Punctuation

In addition to following general writing conventions, the ASAStyle Guide also provides the following guidelines:

Use only one space after punctuation marks (do not usetwo spaces between sentences).

Punctuation marks should be in the same font (including italics) as thetext that precedes it. (Note: this is a change from the previous usage in TheChicago Manual of Style).

The respondent replied, “I loved the movie, Crash!”

When numbering a series of items in a list, use the convention (1), (2),(3) rather than 1. or 1).

The study finds that three variables are importantpredictors of openness to outside groups: (1) endorsement of the group, (2)political climate, and (3) cultural compatibility.
