Alphabetical reference style:
Example:

Possible in-text citations for this reference are: "Reis and Stocken [2007]" or "[Reis and Stocken, 2007]".
When there are three or more authors, the in-text citation will use "et al.". So, for example, the in-text citation for the following reference:

Woodford (eds.): Knowledge, Information, and Expectation in Modern Macroeconomics. Princeton: Princeton University Press, pp. 394-431.
would be: "Nickell et al. [2002]" or "[Nickell et al., 2002]".
