What is the proper way to cite the title of an article when referencing it throughout the text of the article?

Generally speaking, the title isn't referenced in the paper. Rather the authors are referenced. Furthermore, the proper way to cite articles depends on the reference format that you are supposed to use (IE APA, MLA, Chicago, etc). I would recommend going to www.citationmachine.net to select the format. Then, by entering in the applicable information, the generator will provide you with a way to cite the article on your references page and with ways to cite in within the text of the paper.
