I am writing an academic paper, specifically a Position Paper, using APA. According to the Purdue OWL webpage, to cite an organisation: "First citation: (Mothers Against Drunk Driving [MADD], 2000) Second citation: (MADD, 2000)" Am I allowed to use the abbreviation of the agency/organisation in other sentences in the paper but not as a citation? Or do I have to use the entire name again? First citation: ... (Mothers Against Drunk Driving [MADD], 2000) Second citation where Brown talks about the organisation MADD: 1. "MADD also notes that .... (as cited in Brown, 2010)." or 2. "Mothers Against Drunk Driving also notes that .... (as cited in Brown, 2010)."?
