Question

Can I have a reference and intext citation of the software SAS university edition & SAS 9.4 please thank you

Answer 1

If you are trying to document an underlying statistical procedure, most researchers refer to the underlying version of SAS or SAS/STAT (ETS, IML, OR,...) software. For example, in the text you might say. "We implemented the algorithm by using the IML procedure in SAS/IML 14.1 software."

or

"We computed the descriptive statistics by using the MEANS procedure in SAS 9.4 software."

In a bibliography, the typical reference is to the documentation. You can find the correct bibliographic citation in the PDF version of the documentation, on the page after the title page. For example, the SAS/IML 14.1 User's Guide has the following sentence:

"The correct bibliographic citation for this manual is as follows: SAS Institute Inc. 2015. SAS/IML® 14.1 User’s Guide. Cary, NC: SAS Institute Inc."

Of course, if you are writing about a particular interface, you can also refer to the documentation for those products. See the web page for all SAS product docs and click on the PDF link for the product.

SAS University Edition has it's own product page.

In summary, if you want to talk about the analysis, reference the underlying procedure or product. Only referene the interface if that is the topic of your paper (for example, "How to install SAS Univeristy Edition.")
