Hi,

I've been instructed to use Harvard style in my thesis, but all the Harvard styles I have tried use et al. in the bibliography, and my supervisor does not want that. Instead the authors should be written out in the bibliography, but abbreviated with et al. in the text at 2+ authors.

Which style can I use?

I use Mendeley to keep track of my references.

    Hi,

    Thanks for the reply.

    I am aware of that thread, but it doesn't work for me.

    So what I need is still a Harvard-style citation style, that does not abbreviate the authors to et al. in the bibliography.

    all the best,

    Anna

    Hi AnnaVarling,

    Thank you for posting in this community.

    Sorry that I don’t find any Harvard style not abbreviated with et al. in the text at 2+ authors.

    However, according to my research, you may try the suggestions in the following third-party article do not use “et al.”:

    Or you may try the suggestions( the last three replies) in the following thread:
