"Journal Article" and "Article in a periodical" what is the diff?

[Fris]

In the Citations & Biliography, Create Source, type include,
"Journal Article" and "Article in a periodical"
When do I use which one?

 

[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

It depends whether the article was in a journal or a periodical. A "journal"
would usually be a peer-reviewed scholarly/academic publication. A
"periodical" would be a magazine, newspaper, etc.

With a magazine or newspaper, you don't normally use the volume number
and issue number, just the cover date. With a journal, you always use
the volume number (and you only use the issue number if each issue
starts the page numbering over at 1, which is unusual.)

Thank you most helpful,

Could you tell me why in some cases the place where the citation is
displayed only have the author and date and in other cases the Author and the
Title?
And how do I control it?

As always your assistance is appreciated
Thanking you

That depends on the style you are using.

The most common reason is that you cite multiple works by the same
author(s) in your text. The title is then displayed as an extra part
to indicate more clearly what you are citing at a specific place in
your text. By right-clicking on an in-text citation, and choosing
'Edit Citation' you can suppress the author, title or year. That's
about all the control you have.

Thank you - much appreciated - would have taken me a fair amount of time to
figure it out.

It does that in what it claims is "Chicago Style." No Chicago style
would ever give the title instead of numbering the year 2008a, 2008b.
