Slot: Source Citation (APA) (source_citation_apa)

Full APA-style citation for the source dataset.

Tier: recommended

Why this slot matters

The producer's requested citation is what enables attribution and retrieval; omitting it makes it harder for readers to credit the producers and to locate the exact product in the literature.

In plain terms

The ready-to-paste reference for the dataset, formatted the way academic papers list their sources, so anyone reusing the data knows exactly how to cite it.
