[edit] Manual for CSE citation

[CSE] Council of Science Editors. 2006. Scientific style and format: The CSE manual for authors, editors, and publishers, 7th ed. Reston, VA: Council of Science Editors and Rockefeller University Press. Location in Library: Reference T 11 .S386 2006

[edit] Introduction

The Council of Science Editors (CSE), formerly known as Council of Biology Editors (CBE), published the 7th edition of the CSE style manual in 2006. The 1994 (sixth) edition of the CBE style manual lacked examples of many of the Internet formats that are now common.

Chapter 29 (pp. 490-575) of the CSE Manual describes two aspects of citation: 1) how to cite within the text of the document and 2) how to create a bibliography of citations. The first aspect, often referred to as “in-text citation” is covered in section 29-2. Principles for formatting the list of references (i.e., bibliography or end references) are in section 29-3.



[edit] In-text citation & examples

The CSE Manual describes three (3) different systems for citing within the text of the document: citation-sequence, name-year, and citation-name. See the Manual for a description each system. In the SCTC 303 course, you will be expected to use name-year. BEWARE! The Manual favors the citation-name system, so examples in the book usually follow it and will need to be translated into the name-year style for use in assignments prepared for SCTC 303.

In the name-year system, in-text references use the author's surname and the publication year as in these examples.

In-text reference:

Learning to use scientific databases is key to finding the literature of biology (McMillan 2006).

End reference:

     McMillan VE. 2006. Writing Papers in the Biological Sciences. 4th ed. 
     Boston: Bedford/St. Martin's.

In-text reference:

Human interleukin-12/23 monoclonal antibody has been shown to be effective in treating psoriasis. (Krueger et al. 2007).

End reference:

       Krueger GG, Langley RG, Leonardi C, Yeilding N, Guzzo C, Wang Y, Dooley LT, 
       Lebwohl PH, Lebwohl M. 2007. A human interleukin-12/23 monoclonal antibody 
       for the treatment of psoriasis. N Engl J Med. 356:580-592.

In-text reference:

Knothe (2006) uses a unique approach to citation analysis.

End reference:

       Knothe G. 2006. Comparative citation analysis of duplicate or highly 
       related publications. JASIST. 57:1830-1839.

Additional examples of in-text references show how to treat special circumstances.

If the in-text citation is citing two works by the same author:

   (Olson 1992, 1998)

Citing two works by the same author in the same year:

   (Bradford 2001a, 2001b)

Citing two works published in the same year by different authors with the same last name:

   (Rhodes D 2000; Rhodes E 2000)

Citing a work with two authors:

   (McStay and Gordon 2007)

Citing a work with three or more authors:

   (Brown et al. 1999)

Citing authors that are corporations or organizations:

   (NIH 1988)       or     (National Institutes of Health 1988)

Citing a work with no author (use the first few words of the title and an ellipsis):

   (The spinal ...1975)

Citing an undated work:

   (Grassey [date unknown])

[edit] End references & examples

The following sections provide examples for formatting different kinds of materials as end references. The section numbers, such as 29.3.7, refer to sections within the CSE Manual, so, for additional explanation, go to the designated section of the Manual.
