Sadik and Reisman refer to Sadik, 2002 (same title as article), Sadik's unpublished doctoral dissertation. My guess is Sadik and Reisman is a writeup on the dissertation. That's something we could check with the authors about. Then we could add "personal communication" to our references.

References Here

To save time and trouble, for one and all of us, later, let's put all our references here. As you refer to a paper in a post, cite it (Author, year, page) in the post and make sure the paper is referenced here. That way, we can very quickly insert citations in the text of our review as we write it and drum up our reference list once the paper's done. The main thing then will be to eliminate anything we don't actually use. That's easier than adding at the last minute (though still tricky, since it's easy to overlook things you've seen over and over).

Since Tom has the manual (and has saved my skin with it once already), he can be our APA checker, if he's willing.

When you enter a reference, place it alphabetically so we won't have to rearrange later.

To enter a reference, click Blogger, top left, select this blog, then select Edit (or whatever: my version is Chinese, so I'm guessing at the English) for this post. Do not enter references as comments!

I'll start.

Nice place you've got here, Tom. I'd like a lemonade. It's hot where I come from.

Just checking. This Blogger set up confuses me.

When in doubt, go back to the instructions you so carefully entered in your own blog and proceed as directed. I'm with you all now.

I really like the lighthouse motif. Always liked lighthouses. Good work if you can get it.
