HOW?


Citing & referencing explained
3 PARTS

• STATEMENT
– e.g. idea, finding, conclusion taken from a source

• CITATION
– in the body of your text
– indicates idea taken from a source (i.e. that not your own idea)
– abbreviated form
– refers reader to reference list

• REFERENCE
– full details of source used
– end of your text (usually)
– allows reader to find source / verify what you say, if necessary

Statements

Citations
in body of text (in-text citation)
abbreviated pointers to full reference

Allow reader to:

• know when you are stating an idea, fact or
text that is not your own

• find full details of the source in your
reference list

Reference
end of text
full bibliographic details

Allows reader to :
• see breadth & depth of reading
• locate sources
• verify if necessary

What is a citation style?
Hundreds of different styles

Author/date (e.g. Harvard)

(Handelman and Levin, 2008)

Handelman, G. J. and Levin, N. W. (2008) ‘Iron and anemia in human biology: a review
of mechanisms’, Heart Failure Reviews, 13(4), 393-404.

Numeric (e.g. Vancouver)

(1) [1]

1. Handelman G J, Levin NW. Iron and anemia in human biology: a review of mechanisms.
Heart Failure Reviews 2008;13(4):393-404.

Journal specific e.g. British Medical Journal

1

1. Handelman GJ, Levin NW. Iron and anemia in human biology: a review of mechanisms.
Heart Failure Reviews 2008;13(4):393-404.

Check with your lecturer / tutor which style to use.

If using Endnote/EndnoteWeb – recommend Harvard HWU

Use one style consistently throughout paper . D

Reference list / bibliography
Terms often used interchangeably
- a list of what you’ve read at the end of a piece of work

Reference list
Full details of all documents cited (mentioned) in the text

Bibliography
Full details of all documents cited (mentioned) in the text
and/or
Full details of other (background) reading - not cited
usually for larger pieces of work

Check with your School on terminology and what is required

Avoiding Plagiarism

Words/ideas, etc = intellectual property
Theft = penalties

Using someone else’s work, words or ideas and passing
them off as your own e.g. from -
• published material e.g. book
• unpublished e.g. dissertation / thesis
• semi-published / grey literature – e.g. company
reports
• material from a web page
The pancreas produces insulin • radio / tv programmes
in response to an increase in
blood glucose. • cutting & pasting / quoting / paraphrasing
The pancreas creates insulin
Detection: vocabulary, style & fluency, Turnitin
a result of heightened blood
glucose.
Elevated blood glucose causes HWU Student Guide to Plagiarism
the pancreas to release insulin. http://www.hw.ac.uk/registry/resources/PlagiarismGuide.pdf

Found guilty of plagiarism
Copying the work of other authors in a book and articles

“Chunks of prose, apparently written by Dr
Persaud, were the work of other authors.”
(Jenkins, 2008)

“He failed to attribute the so-called ‘stolen words’”
(Jenkins, 2008)

Academic writing
Photo in here
Read widely
- proportionate to assignment
- appropriate sources

Show your reading
- evaluate and discuss other authors’ ideas
- show your understanding of the literature
- attribute your sources

Evaluate / formulate your own response / conclusion

Use work of others to support your own opinions
I believe that genetically modified yeasts will play a major
role in the continuing advancement of brewing technology.

Studies by Linko (2009) and Young (2010) illustrate the
technical advantages of genetically modified yeasts . Their
significance has also been noted by Jones (2008).

When to cite
Using someone else’s work, words or ideas from e.g.

• published material e.g. book
• unpublished e.g. dissertation / thesis
• material from a web page

Text
• quoting
• paraphrasing

Statistics
• if not your own
e.g. In 2006, 20% of people in the UK lived below the poverty line.

Tables, graphs, diagrams, images
•unless you created these yourself

Radio, TV programmes, etc

When not to cite
However . . . . . do cite to back up your opinions . . .

Your own opinions / ideas / thoughts / conclusions e.g.

I believe that television can play a positive role in children’s education.

Baker (2006) presents convincing evidence that children’s recall is greater
for visually presented facts and these findings have been supported by
Morton (2007).

It could be argued that television is a key contributor to children’s learning.

Jones (2006), for example, suggests that children absorb information more
efficiently when presented in audio-visual form.

When not to cite
Common knowledge
e.g. David Cameron is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.
However, each subject will have its own common knowledge
e.g. Mitochondria are found in cells
If in doubt – ask your tutor

Don’t cite if you don’t need to!
Try not to pepper your work with unnecessary citations in an effort to get extra marks.

Never cite something you haven’t read.

Keep a note!
• To cite and reference correctly you need the bibliographic details
of sources used
e.g.books Author surname, Initial/s
Publication date / year
Title
Place of publication
Publisher
Page number/s information taken from

• Different sources require different details
e.g. websites author
date
title
URL
date accessed
