Reference query

In APA format references...

I have a report by an organisation e.g. office for national statistics. But I really want to cite them as ONS, not office for national statistics - but I want it to appear like that in the references - is there a correct way of doing this?

S

(ONS, 2010) in your chapter, whereas in your reference list ONS (2010), Office for National Statistics, [Title of the report], [Publisher], [City], [Country].

Thank you!

first time you mention them in your text you should give the full name and your abbreviation in brackets, or you should have a list of abbreviations somewhere at the beginning of your thesis. that what my supervisor says anyway
