If you like to type a manuscript without putting in the actual references while you are focused on the text, the program can show the the citations in alphabetical order. The program can handle manuscripts of any length.Ĭitation Checker also functions as a references builder. The program can also be used for manuscripts such as dissertations that may employ a style variant permitting single-or-double spaced references separated by two paragraph markers (a paragraph marker results from clicking the key). This format is used by journals in many domains other than psychology. It will not work with the Office Starter Pack, Office Home and Student, Office RT, Office for iPad, or Office for Android.Ĭitation Checker’s primary use is to check for discrepancies between the citations within the text of an article and the references listed in alphabetical order within the References list. The program processes manuscripts whose citations and references are presented in accord with American Psychological Association (APA) style, in which within-text citations include author’s name and publication date, while references are presented alphabetically in a separate section headed by the word “References”. These are “full” versions of Microsoft WORD that include support for VBA macros. It works on Windows versions of WORD and on the Mac 20 versions of WORD.
