Style Request: American Statistical Association

tomka
Hi, I need the style of the American Statistical Association for Zotero, but I cannot find it anywhere.

This is a link to ASA information on the style: http://www.amstat.org/publications/pubdump/ASASTYLE_GUIDE.PDF

Berk, K. N. (1978), “Comparing Subset Regression Procedures,”
Technometrics, 20, 1–6.

I am not sure about the boot style, I think it is:
Little, R. J. A., and Rubin, D. (2002), "Statistical Analysis with Missing Data" (2nd ed); Hoboken; Wiley.

Thank you.

    I'd assume most statisticians write in LaTeX, so no one has ever requested this.

    I thought so too. In this case, I need it for the Journal of Survey Statistics and Methodology.

    http://www.oxfordjournals.org/our_journals/jssam/for_authors/ms_prep.html

    Since I am not a Statistician, rather a methodologist, I did not use Latex to prepare the manuscript.

    I edited this thread to conform to a style request. Note I was not sure how to use intalics in the style examples I gave above.

    The online Journal of Statistics Education (eISSN: 1069-1898) uses Word for submissions and the AmStat Style.

    In-text citations would be (Campbell and Pedersen 2007) and (Mares 2001). Reference list is left aligned (no hanging indent) with a space between references.

    will take some time, but I'll try to prioritize.
    Journal of Consumer Research is a very good fit until then.

    I'm also interested in using the American Statistical Association style. I have switched from Latex to Word and am just starting to use Zotero.
  • ervance
    Is there any update on adding the AmStat Style to Zotero? I am currently in need of a style similar to the International Statistical Review, which I'm sure is similar to or the same as that for The American Statistician.

    tomka and ervance,

    I'm submitting to the same journal. What did you end up doing?

    I think anyone can make a style, but maybe. I'm thinking of Mendeley.

    Did you submit with the alternatve style suggested above?

    Thanks in advance

    @Matt Jans
    I used the Journal of Consumer Research style and then made many, many manual changes to my document to turn it into the AmStat style. For subsequent submissions to statistics journals I have not cared about the reference formatting. My submissions are still in review, so I don't know if the editors care so much about the format.

    @adamsmith
    There are a lot of journals that use the AmStat format style (why it's different from every other style is a different question!). Has any progress been made on including it in Zotero?

    @tomka and @"Matt Jans" and @ervance and @Neil.hatfield
    I've created an amstat style available from here now: https://www.zotero.org/styles?q=id:american-statistical-association
