5、ve proper credit. By crediting your sources, you avoid plagiarism. If you do not cite a source-intentionally or unintentionally-you are guilty of plagiarism.,When Should I Cite?,Many students plagiarize unintentionally. Remember, whenever you summarize, paraphrase or quote another authors material y
6、ou must properly credit your source.If you are using another persons idea, you must also cite your source!,One of my parents always said, “Dont wet your bed” (Mom, 1990).,When in doubt, give credit to your source!,Summary, Paraphrase, Quote,A summary (aka abstract) briefly captures the main ideas of
7、 your source A paraphrase is a restatement of the text of your source in your own words (more detail than a summary) Quotations can be direct (using quotation marks) or indirect (no quotation marks and often introduced by that) A noted psychologist states, “As recently as 20 years ago, a bed-wetter
8、was psychologically castigated for what could have been a physiological problem” (Tikling, 2009). A noted psychologist observes that just two decades ago bed-wetters suffered psychologically for a medical problem that may have had a physiological source (Tikling, 2009).,In any of these cases, you mu
9、st credit your source,How Do I Cite?,There are two parts to citing according to APA style:1. Brief In-text citations (often in parentheses) within the body of your essay or paper 2. List of full citations in the References page at the end of your paperNote:Sources cited in the text must appear in th
10、e References page. Conversely, each entry in the References page must be cited in the text.,APA provides these guidelines for citations:,In-text citations: “References . . . are cited in text with an author-date . . . and are listed alphabetically in the reference list” (Publication Manual, 2010). R
11、eference list citations: “Choose references judiciously . . . and reference data must be correct and complete” (Publication Manual, 2009).,In-Text Citations,Place the parenthetical reference at the end of the sentence before the punctuation mark. Bedwetting emissions have been determined to consist
12、mostly of two parts hydrogen to one part oxygen, plus assorted diurnal chemicals (Wasser, 2009).,You must provide information that will allow the reader to locate exactly where you found information in your sources. Usually this is the authors last name and the year of publication, for example: (Was
13、ser, 2009),In-Text Citations, Contd,When the authors name appears as part of your sentence (known as a “signal phrase”), do not use it again in the parenthetical citation. Just give the year of publication: Wasser (2009) argues that bedwetting is ultimately a genetically predisposed behavior. When t
14、here are two authors, name both authors every time their work is referenced in your paper: Among epidemiological samples, Selbst and Tikling (2008) found that early onset social anxiety disorder results from adverse parental responses to bedwetting. The study also showed that there was a high rate o
15、f alcohol and drug abuse associated with unresolved bedwetting issues (Selbst and Tikling, 2008).,Other Citation Possibilities,When there are between 3 and 5 authors, name all at their first citing, including the year of publication. At subsequent citings in your paper, retain only the first author
16、and replace the others with “et al.”: Selbst, Tikling, Wang, Getz, and Wasser (2009) believe that bedwetters have a genetic predisposition for their behaviors. In work with the Human Genome Project, Selbst et al. (2009) have identified the unique gene that contributes to bedwetting propensity. When
17、there are 6 or more authors, use first authors surname and “et al.” for the others as in second example above in all citing instances. If the author is a group (e.g., corporation, association, government agency), use the entire name in your in-text cite, though some groups names can be abbreviated a
18、fter the first instance: According to government figures, boys are 35% more likely across the socio-economic spectrum than girls to wet their beds (National Institute of Mental Health, 2000). Next instance: (NIMH, 2000) When a work has no identified author, cite in text the first few words of the re
19、ference list entry; if article, chapter or web page, use quotation marks, if periodical, book, report, use italics: Bedwetters also wet couches (“IKEA Report,” 2005)A popular college prep handbook, College Bound Seniors (2008), recommends use of the upper bunk if your roommate is a bed-wetter.,When
20、possible, give only the last two digits for the second number,Author Comma Title Page Number,Cite as you normally would and separate citations with a semicolon,Other Citation Possibilities, Contd,Sometimes you may want to refer to more than one source in your in-text citation. In that case, you shou
21、ld place them alphabetically, separated by a semicolon: Primary enuresis in young children is the expression of auto-erotic pleasure (Freud 1901; Jung 1905). To cite a specific part of a source, indicate the page, especially if a direct quotation; chapter; figure; table; or equation at the appropria
22、te point in the your text: In a letter to Freud, Ferenczi wrote, “I believe that syphilis leads to erythrophobia only in those people who in their childhood had to energetically suppress their rage toward their parents because of unjust punishment especially because of punishment for enuresis” (Brab
23、ant, Falzeder, and Giampieri-Deutsch, 1992, p. 271). Jung establishes the significance of the father in the development of enuresis in young children (1916, chapter 3).,In-text Citing of Electronic Sources,Treat electronic sources the same as print sources. Direct quotations from e-sources which don
24、t have page numbers are referenced by paragraph or heading and paragraph number, if available:Eiberg, Berendt, and Mohr (1995) concluded in a Danish study that “nocturnal enuresis, or nightly bedwetting in children more than seven years of age affects about 10% of seven-year-old children, with a wid
25、e range of frequencies between populations” (para. 4).A recent Italian study found that “the prevalence of enuresis was higher when the child was from a family of low socio-economic status despite the childs age group” (Chiozza et al., 2002, “Results,” para 3). This source has 6 authors (in fact, 8)
