Help on citation types

How can I use the following citation types within the same document?

(Author , year)   and  Author(year)

Thanks in advance

You can do this easily with EndNote X5 for Windows. Using the CWYW tools in MS Word, insert an in-text citation using an ‘author-date formatting style’ - such as APA 6th - the default format will be (Author, year) - then use the Edit Citation options to change to the Author (year) form where desired. See the attached screen shot.

I hope this helps.

Here are some examples (if that’s what you’re asking):

When the format is: (Author, Year)

Many agreed with the coroner’s finding that Humpty Dumpty’s death was accidental and not a murder (Goose, 1930).

The coroner noted it was “just an unfortunate accident” (Goose, 1930, p. 32).

When the format is: Author (Year)

M. Goose (1930) provided a thorough compilation of many so-called “criminal acts” involving noted fairy-tale characters.

According to M. Goose (1930), the coroner, Dr. Undertaker, stated in no uncertain terms, “For Pete’s sake, it was just an accident” (p. 45).
