I'm using the natbib package and have a sentence like this:

Smith's (2000) argument is widely accepted.

If I use \citet{smith2000}'s, this will lead to "Smith (2000)'s argument...".

Is there any way to get the desired genitive-s directly behind the name?

Here's my preamble:

\documentclass[paper=a4, fontsize=11pt]{scrartcl} 
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc} % Use 8-bit encoding that has 256 glyphs
\usepackage{longtable} %Muss vor arydslin stehen!
\usepackage{arydshln}
\usepackage[ngerman, english]{babel} % English language/hyphenation
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{amsmath,amsfonts,amsthm} % Math packages
\usepackage{arydshln}
\usepackage[]{float}
\usepackage[authoryear,round,longnamesfirst]{natbib}
\bibliographystyle{plainnat}

Thanks for any hints!

    See this posting for a definition of \possessivecite that works with the natbib package. (Note that it's not necessary to load the har2nat package.) With this macro, you can write \possessivecite{smith} to get Smith's (2000). – Mico Feb 18 '16 at 13:14
  • cool, it solved my problem! Is it still a duplicate, even if the \possessivecite did not occur in the other question originally, but only as an afterthought? In this case, should I delete this question? – PikkuKatja Feb 18 '16 at 14:16
  • Absolutely no need to delete your question! As you've noted, the older query was mostly about other issue, and the possessive form of citation call-outs arose mostly as a side or afterthought. – Mico Feb 18 '16 at 15:01
