multiple authors names and "et al." APA 7th

lana11

Hi,

I didn't find this issue n any of the the topics.

When I put a citation with two or more authors, most of the time it works well, i have the first author's name and then "et al." (using APA 7).

But, sometimes, and I can't explain why, it looks like it's using another style, i get up to 5 authors name and then "et al.", or sometimes 2 authors and then "et al."

Can somebody, please, help me? It's kinda urgent:)
Thank you very much!

Best regards

APA lists additional authors before et al. to disambiguate otherwise identical in-text citations. I'd guess that's what you're seeing.

Hey,
Thank you very much!
I figured it out a little later, it was just awkward to see it that way, and until now, I didn’t have those issues.
Thank you.
Best,

7 APA DOES NOT INCLUDE CITY AND COUNTRY. THIS IS CLEARLY A MISTAKE... 6APA IS CORRECT!!! this is my first time in zotero forum don´t know where to send this message....

Please don't use all caps.
You're mistaken. As was fairly widely published at the time of the release of the 7th edition, place of publication is no longer included in citation in the APA Manual of Style, and, of course, Zotero's implementation reflects that.
