A DOI number, or a digital object identifier, is a unique alphanumeric string that identifies content and provides a persistent link to its location on the internet. A DOI is a number that is specific to a certain piece and identifies it among other digital sources. Journal articles will commonly have a DOI associated with that specific article. Depending on where an article can be found, you may need to include a URL in place of a DOI. Guidelines for including a DOI or a URL can be found in the APA 7, Section 9.34.
Here are the general guidelines:EXCELSIOR NUR513 RESEARCH AND EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE Module 4 Quiz
Include a DOI for all works that have a DOI, regardless if you use the online version or the print version.
If a print work does not have a DOI, do not include any DOI or URL in the reference.
If a work has both a DOI and a URL, include only the DOI.
If an online work has a URL but no DOI, include the URL in the reference as follows:
For works without DOIs from websites (not included in databases), provide a URL in the reference.
For works without DOIs from academic databases, do not include a URL or database information in the reference because these works are widely available. The reference should be the same as the reference for a print version of the work.
Other alphanumeric identifiers such as the International Standard Book Number (ISBN) and the International Standard Serial Number (ISSN) are not included in APA style references.
