American Psychological Association (APA) 6th Edition Style Update

The EndNote® APA 6th Style is now available. The updated style is dependent on an accompanying change to the reference type matrix. Both files are provided in the download package along with installation instructions.

If you are citing a reference type that is not included in EndNote, you should consult the APA manual. You may need to add or modify your own reference types to be compatible with the updated reference type matrix provided in the download package. See APA 6th Reference Types for details.
