How do I format Digital Object Identifiers (DOI) in a reference?

Answer

According to the 7th edition of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association:

"Present both DOIs and URLs as hyperlinks (i.e., beginning with 'http://' or 'https://'). Because a hyperlink leads readers directly to the content, it is not necessary to include the words 'Retrieved from' or 'Accessed from' before a DOI or URL"(American Psychological Association, 2020, p. 299).
