• If you are citing existing data or statistics, cite the publication in which the data were published (e.g., a journal article, report, or webpage) rather than the data set itself.

• Common software (e.g. Word, Excel, Photoshop or SPSS) and mobile apps (e.g. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter) mentioned in the text, but not paraphrased or quoted, do not need citations. Simply give the proper name of the software or app along with version number in the text, if relevant.

• The publication date of a computer software is the year of publication of the version used;
• The bracketed description is flexible: [Computer Software], [Mobile App], [Apparatus and software];
• For a mobile app the publisher can be stated as Google Play Store or App Store;
• To cite a content of a social media app see Social Media.
