APA style references that contain “with” authors
I figured out how to get Zotero to format references that contain “with” authors in APA style:
Johnstone, L., & Boyle, M. (with Cromby, J., Dillon, J., Harper, D., Kinderman, P., Longden, E., Pilgrim, D., & Read, J.). (2018). The Power Threat Meaning Framework: Towards the identification of patterns in emotional distress, unusual experiences and troubled or troubling behaviour, as an alternative to functional psychiatric diagnosis. British Psychological Society. https://www.bps.org.uk/guideline/power-threat-meaning-framework-full-version
However, I have another reference by the first two authors from 2018, and I have noticed two things that I’m confused by:
1. The reference list puts these two references in the following order, with the 2025 one ahead of the 2018 one, ostensibly because Zotero is counting the “with” orders in generating alphabetical order. Should the order of these references be reversed? And if so, how can I get Zotero to do that?
Johnstone, L., & Boyle, M. (2025). The Power Threat Meaning Framework: An alternative nondiagnostic conceptual system. Journal of Humanistic Psychology, 65(4), 800–817.

British Psychological Society. https://www.bps.org.uk/guideline/power-threat-meaning-framework-full-version
2. In the in-text citations, Zotero is correctly not including the “with” author names, but it is listing the order of the citations in the wrong order, with the 2025 one first (again, probably because it is counting the “with” author names): Johnstone & Boyle, 2025, 2018.
So, to sum up my questions: What should the order of two Johnstone & Boyle sources be in the reference list and in the in-text citations? And, if Zotero is doing it wrong, how can I get Zotero to do it correctly?
Thank you!
