Answer:

There are a number of errors in the parenthetical citation. If you are looking according to the APA 6th edition style format, the parenthetical citation does not have quotation marks inside the parenthesis. the organization name or the authors last name is followed by a comma which is then followed by the year of publication.

The source of publication is never mentioned in the parenthetical citations. Therefore option 4. wrong information would be the correct answer to the above question.
