Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (JAND) Citation Style/ADA Citation Style The Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics citation style provides the rules for formatting academic works in the field of nutrition. It uses a modified version of the American Medical Association Manual of Style, 10th edition for references. For examples of citations in the JAND /ADAstyle, see the Journal of the American Dietetic Association, shelved alphabetically by title in Crown Library’s Print Holdings, lower level. http://vufind.carli.illinois.edu/vf-dom/Record/dom_53196 For more information on the AMA style, see the American Medical Association Manual of Style, 10th edition at Crown Library: Reference Collection (Non-Circulating), REF. R119 .A533 2007, http://vufind.carli.illinois.edu/vfdom/Record/dom_190216 General Formatting for Reference Lists References should be listed in the order that they appear in the academic work. References should be single-spaced within each listing and double-spaced between each listing. References must include all author names for a source; do not use “et al.” List the authors’ names in the order that they appear in the published source. This order is determined by their role in the research described in the article. Do not list the names alphabetically. When listing an author’s name, use the last name first, followed by the first and middle initials. There is no comma after the last name, and no commas, spaces, or periods between first and middle initials. With the exception of the first word and proper nouns, the title of an article should be in all lowercase letters. Abbreviate periodical titles according to the US National Library of Medicine's lists of biographic data found at www.nlm.nih.gov/tsd/serials/terms_cond.html; if a title does not appear on these lists, provide the complete title. One-word journal titles are written in full. Examples: Pediatrics, Cancer, Diabetes. Periodical and book titles are italicized and capitalized. For periodicals, there is no space between the year, the volume, or the page numbers. Page numbers are always written as "257-259", not "257-59." Web site material that is only online (i.e. not an online version of a journal or other print publication) should include author or organization, the title of the page, the URL, and the access date. The title should not be italicized. Publication and update dates, and access dates for Internet sites cited must be included. For example: Smith J. Risk Factors for Cancer.
