Study Notes
Citations: Review of Related Literature and Studies
- Citations are used to present information from books, magazines, newspapers, and other secondary sources.
- Related studies present published studies related to the research topic, discussing relevant research conducted on a particular topic (e.g. theses, dissertations).
- Reviews of related literature and studies provide an overview of current knowledge (theories, methods), highlighting gaps in existing research. It involves finding and explaining publications, critically analyzing them.
- A review goes beyond summary; it analyzes, synthesizes, and evaluates sources, to show the current state of knowledge on a topic.
- Literature and studies need to be recent and relevant for the study. They must be objective and fair.
- Blogs are websites containing a writer's experiences, observations, opinions, links to other websites (often with images). They contain personal reflections, comments, links, videos, and photographs.
In-Text and End-Reference Citations
- In-text citations are used within the body of the research paper.
- End-reference citations are located at the end of the paper, showing details of all cited information (e.g. author names, publication year, title etc.)
- These ensure that the work is properly attributed.
Summarizing, Paraphrasing and Quoting
- Paraphrasing is rephrasing or restating author's words and thoughts into your own words.
- Strategies include: rewording, rearranging, keeping unchanged parts (e.g. names, dates). Recheck the paraphrase means the same as original.
- Summarizing is putting the main idea(s) of someone else's writing into your own words.
- Guidelines: read and comprehend the text, identify main ideas and key points, express the information in your own words
- Quoting means using the author's exact words. Quotes are put in quotation marks and referenced.
- Quoting is advisable when highlighting specific sentences/passages or comparing/contrasting specific points of view. Paragraph quotes are better paraphrased or summarized.
- Copying and pasting a sentence/paragraph and adding quotation marks alone is NOT sufficient for proper citation.
