Explanation:

In APA referencing style, authors are listed in alphabetical order.

When citing works by the same author(s), list works in an order that depends on the year of publication. This also applies to works published in the same year. You can add a, b, c, etc to the year to show the order they were published if they are in the same year.

The reason 3 and 2 come before 1 and 4 is due to their original publication dates which are earlier than those of works 1 and 4.
