APA Style (7th ed.)
Citing data from a table or figure
If you are citing data from a table or figure, you can use the typical APA Style approach to in-text citations e.g., (Lastname, year, p. X). If you retrieved the information from a resource that doesn't have page numbers, cite the table or figure number instead of a page or paragraph number e.g., (Lastname, year, Table/Figure #). See Citing Specific Parts of a Source for other example citations to resources without page numbers. Make sure to include the source for the table or figure in the list of references.
Adapting or recreating a table or figure
If you are adapting or recreating a table or figure that was originally published by someone else, you will need to provide a copyright statement beneath the table or figure as well as include a corresponding reference entry (American Psychological Association, 2020, p. 385). Please see the APA Style's Sample Figures and Sample Tables for example copyright statements and see pages 384-391 in the APA Style manual for information and more examples.
To determine if you need to obtain copyright permission to use a table or figure in your document, please see Copyright Basics and Fair Dealing. Authors of theses or dissertations must obtain copyright permissions to use copyright-protected illustrations; please see Copyright Information for Theses and Dissertations Publication for information. If you have questions about copyright, please contact the Copyright Office.
