Häufig gestellte Fragen
How many authors do I list before using 'et al'? ▼
In AMA reference lists, include all authors. In in-text, use first author et al. for 4+ authors.
Should I use abbreviated or full journal names? ▼
AMA prefers standard abbreviations found in MEDLINE/PubMed.
Is DOI required? ▼
Include DOI if available. If no DOI, the citation is still complete with volume/issue/pages.
