In an APA paper, if you are only referring to one particular source in a paragraph, but refer to them multiple times, do you need to cite after every sentence it's used in that paragraph, or can you use a sweeping citation at the end of that paragraph?
It would seem repetitive to keep citing the same source multiple times in a paragraph when it's the only source being referenced.

I have been told by my professors that you can cite after the first sentence and then again after the last sentence in the paragraph if all information within the paragraph is from the same source.
