"This reference list provides the sources of the majority of the examination questions for the 2020 exam. Journal articles used for the exam are typically those published within the last 5 years. This list is not meant to be all-inclusive (e.g., it does not indicate the only resources candidates should use to prepare for an upcoming examination). Note that the ALL ACLAM Series Blue Books are heavily referenced and are considered core references."
