Cite personal communications in text only. Give the initials as well as the surname of the communicator, and provide as exact a date as possible." ( APA Manual, section 3.102) Example: I. M.

PRESENTATIONS, SPEECHES, POSTER SESSIONS, etc. Like the example above, if they do not provide "recoverable data," these would not be included in the reference list and would be cited in the text only. If, however, something tangible exists (e.g. handouts of PowerPoint slides, an abstract in a conference program, etc.), it might be

citable. See the APA Manual, section 4.16 D and F. Here is an example of a poster session: Worral, P. S. & Levin, R. (2004, June). Developing a statewide research agenda. Poster session presented at the biannual meeting of the American Nurses Association, Minneapolis, MN. Since they ask, I have suggested to students who wish to cite a presentation unofficially, for an undergraduate paper, that they could cite it like this: Twohy, K. (2004, January 15).
