First thing to do is to add a field for the journal abbreviation to the article entrytype, journalabbr
in the MWE. Therefore you need to declare a datamodel (an extra file; in the MWE I've used filecontents to simulate that) and you have to tell biblatex/biber to use it in the package options.
Then you have to modify the cite command, so it fits your needs. \citep
from the authoryear-style (your citestyle) uses the \cite
command. There you just have to add a switch, which checks if the field journalabbr
is empty or not, and prints it out or not.
Last but not least you have to add the abbreviation fields to the entries.

\begin{document}
\citep{boisson2003unexpected}
How it should look like:

\printbibliography
\end{document}
Best Answer
The documentation of the natbib package states that the commands
\citeauthor
and\citeyear
are available only if an authoryear-style citation style is in effect. Theacm
bibliography style, however, seems to use a purely numeric citation style, and you're loading thenatbib
package with the optionnumbers
. Thus, you can't use the\citeauthor
along with theacm
bibliography style.
