In citations within the article, the "author and date" system should be used, except in special cases. If multiple sources are to be cited at the same time, publications should be separated by semicolons and given in chronological order. For example: (Soyadı, 2002; Soyadı et al., 2009; Soyadı, 2010; Soyadı and Surname, 2012). In works with two authors, author names should be separated by "and" (in sources written in a foreign language, "and"), in works with multiple authors, "et al." (“et al.”) should be used in foreign language sources. For example: (Surname, 2007), (Surname and Surname, 2005), (Soyadı et al., 2003). Multiple uses of publications with more than one author or single author should be done in historical order, and when using multiple publications in the same year, alphabetical order based on the first author should be taken into consideration. For example: (Atıcı and Armağan, 2019; Yercan and Kınıklı, 2019). When citing different sources published in the same year by the same author/institution/etc., alphabet letters should be used after the year.
Examples
……about teaching quality (Berk, 2013). ……. SET administration (Avery et al., 2006). ……..on average student ratings (Griffin et al., 2014; Nulty, 2008; Spooren et al., 2013). ……evaluate SET scores (Boysen, 2015a, 2015b; Boysen et al., 2014; Dewar, 2011).
14. All literature cited in the text should be included in the "References List". Works that are not cited in the text should not be included in the reference list. The list of references should be given in alphabetical order and according to the author-date system. If two or more publications by the same author are used, the older publication should be given first in the References List. The first letter of each word of the book and book chapter name must be capitalized. Publications of an organization should be given with their publication number, otherwise the name and city of the printing house where they were published should be stated. The name of the journal in which the literature is published should be written clearly, without abbreviations. When writing references, the first line should be aligned to the left, and the following lines should be drawn in 0.5 cm. Examples of literature writing style are given below. (Emerald's Harvard referencing style)

Single author: (Adams, 2006)
