2 first authors?

I am getting an in-text citation that is showing two author names and then et al. Does this happen when there are two first authors? If not, how can I change it when the database info is input correctly?
  • I just discovered it was because there were two papers by the same lead author published in the same year cited in my paper.
  • APA style says that when two papers with different authors are abbreviated to the same (eg, “Jones et al., 2006”), additional author names are added until they are disambiguated. Zotero is following correct APA style.
