citation style needs adjustment #3

Open dreistein543 opened 1 year ago

dreistein543 commented 1 year ago

according to author guide:

citation in text with pages should display as (author, year: pages) like (Lee, 1998: 3) while current template produce (Lee, 1988, 3) with \citep[3]{lee1998} (or maybe I should use another command to cite with pages?)

besides, article with only 2 authors should be separated with & (like most AOM journal (eg. AMJ or AMR)) while current version use and. (but the year only citation uses and like Lee and Xavier (1998), this makes me confused.)

as to article with 3 or more authors, the first citation should list all of them and abbreviate with et al at subsequent citation. current template uses et al for all citations.

I fixed the first of your points. See commit https://github.com/gaksaray/AOM-LaTeX-template/commit/f075f27d35b6c7c7ecd77d04e9c773803dafc3d0.

As far as I can tell from the style guide, two-author citations are separated with and as in Van Dorn and Xavier (2001) and three- or more-author citations are separated with &. Anyway, I don't know how to write citation style bst files so I inherited the aomlike.bst from another repo. I am leaving this issue open in case anyone wants to tackle the more complex needs of AOM citations.

I think the &/and issue is not very important, but the first citation with full name list needs to be fixed (i.e. aomlike.bst needs to support the longnamesfirst option of natbib). sadly, I have googled but have not found any simple way to adjust aomlike.bst so that the longnamesfirst option works
