How do you cite multiple authors in APA?

There are 8 authors to my journal and I have heard of citing et al, but I don't know if you can do that in APA format

Answer

The Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 6th edition, does have a specific rule for citing 8 or more authors. You can find an example for your reference list on this CSS Library Guide (left-hand column).

For in-text citing of an article with 6 or more authors, see the example in the "In-Text and Parenthetical Citation Styles" box on this CSS Library Guide page.
