How do you cite an interview?

An interview is not considered recoverable data, so no reference to this is provided in the reference list. You may, however, cite the interview within the text as a personal communication.

Examples:

• (J. Smith, personal communication, August 15, 2009)
• J. Smith (personal communication, August 15, 2009)

For examples of how to cite an interview you've read, see the APA Style blog.
