Powerpoint is a tool, not a publication. I believe it should be
treated as you would a Skinner box or computer. In the methods
section, you might mention its name and manufacturer and any
"dimensions" that were pertinent to the study, just as you would any
other piece of apparatus.

=====================================
How would you cite/reference the use of power point as a tool
to present stimuli to participants in a study?
My best "guess", abstacting from other information on citations
and references and trying to apply it to the information I have
on my power point CD jacket is to reference it as:
Microsoft Office 97 Standard Edition [computer software]. (1996).
Microsoft Corporation.
there apparently is no author and no city to include. How about the
citation in text about using just the Power Point component?
thanks for the help
and it was nice to see the tipsters at WPA!
