The instructions on this page concern references to chapters in edited reports. The chapters of an edited report are written by different authors and each chapter is therefore treated as a separate work. Hence, the chapter is generally the entity referred to both in the in-text reference and in the reference list. If a DOI has been assigned to the report, include this number in the reference.
Do not forget to consult the general instructions on how to write references according to APA (7th edition), including
Author, A. A., Author, B. B., & Author, C. C. (YYYY). Title of chapter. In C. C. Editor & D. D. Editor (Eds.), Title of report (Serial name/Report #, pp. page number-page number). Publisher. DOI or URL
