To create in-text citations in the AMA style, you just need to include a number in superscript where the source is relevant. Often, a citation is shown with a quote or at the end of the sentence where the source has contributed. The numbers used should be in chronological order from the beginning of the paper to the end.
The number shown within the text allows the reader to find the full reference in the reference list at the end of the paper. Therefore, the full references should always start with the citation number and be presented in order of appearance within the text.
Different source types require different information to help the reader find the original source, therefore there are a few variations of AMA formatting. For example, an AMA book citation should be formatted differently to an AMA website citation.
