For each type of source that you might copy or adapt a figure from (i.e. a book, journal article, or website), both a general form and an example are provided.
Information on citing and several of the examples in this guide were drawn from the APA Manual (6th ed.).
Numbers in parentheses refer to specific pages in the manual.
When you use a figure in your paper that has been adapted or copied directly from another source, you need to reference the original source. This reference appears as a caption underneath the figure that you copied or adapted for your paper. You do not have to create a separate entry in your References list for the figure.
Any image that is reproduced from another source also needs to come with copyright permission; it is not enough just to cite the source.
