How do I cite the same source multiple times in AMA style?
To cite the same source multiple times in AMA style, follow these steps:
- Number sources on the AMA reference page sequentially according to the first time each source is cited in your main text. For example, the first source you cite in text is “1,” the second is “2,” and so on.
- Each source only needs one number and one reference entry no matter how many AMA in-text citations you have for the same source.
- Each time you summarize, paraphrase, or quote each source, use the same number from the reference page in superscript at the end of the relevant sentence, phrase, or clause—like this example.4
