Do you include month and year of publication in a in-text citation APA style quote?

People must include the year of publication in an in-text citation APA style quote. The citations should include the publication date along with the auther's last name. The last name of the auther and the year of publication must be displayed separated by a comma. For example, if the work cited was by Nicholas Sparks and the date of publication was 2009, the in-text citation should be (Sparks, 2009).
