How to cite ABNT magazines

When we are writing an academic work, it is essential to follow the norms of ABNT (Brazilian Association of Technical Standards) to ensure the quality and standardization of citations. In this blog, we will specifically address how to cite magazines in accordance with ABNT standards.

1. BIBLIOGRAPHICAL REFERENCE

To cite a magazine according to ABNT, it is necessary to follow the following structure:

Surname, author’s name. Article Title. Magazine title, publication place, volume, number, pages, publication date.

For example:

Smith, John. The importance of environmental sustainability. Environment Magazine, São Paulo, v. 10, n. 2, p. 45 60, Jul./Dens. 2022.

2. Direct citation

When you want to directly cite an excerpt from a magazine article, you need to use double quotes and indicate the specific quote page. For example:

“Environmental sustainability is essential for the preservation of our planet” (Smith, 2022, p. 50).

3. Indirect citation

When you want to paraphrase an excerpt from a magazine article, you just need to mention the author and the year of publication. For example:

According to Smith (2022), environmental sustainability plays a key role in the preservation of the environment.
