When writing a personal statement and referring to titles (such as of magazines) double or single quotations?
Answers:
Neither. They should be in italics.
Either - it's a matter of taste, but I prefer doubles.
If I am writing a personal statement about a magazine, the title of the magazine goes in double quotations. For example, I could say: In my opinion, "Time" magazine is a respectable publication.
If I am writing a research paper, and I am quoting a magazine, it would look the same. I would write: John Smith of "Time" magazine explained it best when he wrote "Blah, blah, blah."
The only time you need single quotes is when you are quoting someone else's ideas or words when talking about a magazine, for example:
John Smith said, "The authors of 'Time' magazine are generally reputable." (Here the difference is putting quotations inside quotations. When you do that, the quotes inside the quotes become single quotes. I hope that isn't too confusing!)
treble even!
When you're quoting direct speech, use double quote marks. For all other instances (such as they ones you list) use single quote marks.

They can be in either, or neither and use italics. The important thing is to be consistent.
Our style is to refer to names of magazines, newspapers, television programs, etc, in italics.
