APA Refresh: Foreign Titles
As Walden University is a global university, sometimes in
your research you may come across an article or book that has been translated
into English. To best help readers find the original article, APA style asks
researchers to include both the foreign title and the translated title into
English. What does this look like? Read on for an example!
If you are citing a foreign journal article (or book) that
has been translated, provide the original title in your reference as well as
the translation of the title into English in brackets.
Example:
Vergauwen, J., Neels, K., & Wood, J. (2016). Impact de
la situation économique sur la mise en couple en France (1993-2008)
[Educational differentials in the impact of micro- and macro-level economic
conditions on union formation in France (1993-2008)]. Population, 71(4),
593-617. doi:10.3917/pope.1604.0593
