AMAReferenceGenerator.com is an independent citation-generation and educational website. The information and generated references are provided to assist users with citation work, not to replace source verification or the instructions of the institution or publication receiving the work.
Citation accuracy
We work to make the generator and guides accurate, but we do not guarantee that every citation is complete or error-free.
A citation may be affected by inaccurate or incomplete metadata, source-type detection, edition differences, journal-title data, webpage ambiguity, software bugs or changes to the official style guidance.
Always review the final reference against the original source.
Use the official manual for authoritative decisions
The AMA Manual of Style is the primary authority for AMA style. Our guides explain and apply common rules but are not a substitute for the official manual in ambiguous, specialized or high-stakes publishing situations.
Journal and university requirements may differ
A journal, publisher, medical school, university or instructor may apply its own house style or assignment rules on top of AMA. Follow the requirements that apply to your submission.
Academic integrity
You are responsible for ensuring that sources are real, relevant and actually consulted where required. A citation generator should not be used to fabricate references, conceal plagiarism or misrepresent research.
No medical advice
Although the Site focuses on medical and scientific citation style and may link to biomedical literature, it does not provide medical diagnosis, treatment recommendations or healthcare advice.
Do not use citation content on this Site to make medical decisions.
No legal or professional publishing advice
Legal pages and publishing information on the Site are general website information. They are not individualized legal advice, and the Site does not act as your lawyer, editor, journal representative or academic institution.
Reference-list storage
The current generator may store a working reference list locally in your browser. Local storage can be cleared or lost. Export or copy important work.
Service availability
Features may change or become temporarily unavailable because of maintenance, software updates or third-party API limitations. We do not guarantee uninterrupted service.
External websites
Links to Oxford Academic, PubMed/NCBI, Crossref, publishers and other external websites are provided for research and convenience. We do not control those sites or their privacy, availability or content.
American Medical Association non-affiliation
AMAReferenceGenerator.com is not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by the American Medical Association.
The term “AMA” is used to identify the citation style and manual relevant to the educational purpose of this independent website. The Site is not an official AMA service.
