How do I cite a position paper, such as the NAEYC position paper on DAP?

Answer

The format for any APA reference is:

Author. (Date). Title. Access information.

Author (Who wrote it?): NAEYC

Date (When it was published): 2009

Title (What is it named?): Developmentally Appropriate Practice in Early Childhood Programs Serving Children from Birth through Age 8 [Position Statement]

So, putting this all together, the APA reference would look like this:
