자주 묻는 질문

How do I cite a thesis that's not yet published or available online?

You can still cite it with the institutional information: Author. (Year). Title [Doctoral dissertation, University Name]. Though it's recommended to wait for publication or archival in a repository.

Should I include the thesis advisor's name?

No, APA format does not include the advisor's name in the citation. Only include it if the thesis was published as a book.

What's the difference between citing a dissertation and a master's thesis?

The format is the same; just change [Doctoral dissertation, University] to [Master's thesis, University] accordingly.
