The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) citation style is commonly used in electronics, computer engineering, computer science, and other areas of engineering. 

The IEEE Reference Guide outlines five core elements to a citation. The core elements are arranged in a specific format. 

[#] First name initial and author surname. Title of Source, in Title of Container, xth ed. City of Publisher (only U.S. State), Country:  Abbreviation of Publisher, Publication year, ch. x, sec. x, pp. xxx–xxx.

APA is the citation style of the American Psychological Association. It is widely used in the social and behavioral sciences.

There are two parts to every APA citation:

• an in-text citation for every source quoted or paraphrased; and
• a complete citation in an alphabetized reference list at the end of the paper.
