DeNicco, J., & Laincz, C. A. (2018). Jobless recovery: A time series look at the United States. Atlantic Economic Journal, 46(1), 3-25. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11293-018-9569-7
Author(s) of Article. (year of publication). Complete title of article. Name of Journal, volume(issue), page range of article if available. https//doi.org/10.xxxxxxxx
If you find your article in a library database, you can click on the "Cite" button next to your article and choose "APA" (your database may list "APA 6th"; some databases do not yet have citation information for the new APA 7th style). For this example, you would get the following citation:
DeNicco, J., & Laincz, C. A. (2018). Jobless recovery: A time series look at the united states. Atlantic Economic Journal, 46(1), 3-25. doi:http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11293-018-9569-7
There are a number of errors in this database-supplied citation (highlighted in yellow). Here is how it should look:

Note that in APA 7th, you are to include all authors up to 20.
If you use the "Cite" feature, compare your citation carefully to the example shown and change as necessary. Look at the information provided with the article itself to verify anything that looks incorrect.
You will also need to:
Check the author names. In APA style, database-supplied citations will often confuse first names with last names, will include the wrong part of compound names, or will add unneeded components (such as PhD). Look at the author information that appears with the article itself to help determine the correct way to cite an author's name.
Check title capitalization. Database-supplied citations will often give article titles in all capital letters, or will have other capitalization errors. In APA style, article titles should have only the first word, the first word after a colon or long dash, proper nouns, and acronyms capitalized.
Make sure page numbers are complete. In some databases, only the first page number (or no page number) appears in citation information. If a PDF (page image) version of the article is available, use that to verify page range.
Check DOI format. There is only one acceptable way to write DOI numbers in APA 7th style; standardize your DOI number to match the format shown here (see the "Helpful Tips" tab). Database-supplied citations will often include extra unneeded parts at the beginning of the DOI number.
Check font, spacing, and punctuation. Citations may not paste with the font that matches the rest of your paper (APA accepts any standard easily readable font as long as you are consistent). Spacing between words and/or line spacing may not be correct. Punctuation (commas, periods) may be missing or may not be correct.
