In-Text Citations
* Note: When incorporating secondary source material into an academic paper, most of it should be paraphrased rather than quoted. Be choosy about when you quote word-for-word from a source. A paraphrase is a restatement of someone else's ideas in your own words. Simply substituting a few words in the original for synonyms will not do. When paraphrasing, make sure that the language and sentence structure are truly your own.
Format Rules:
For paraphrases, include the author(s) last name(s) and the year of publication. For quotes, also add the page number. If no page number is available, add the paragraph number. The word page is abbreviated as "p." The word paragraph is abbreviated as "para."
For a personal communication, such as an interview you conducted or information you took from AI, include the name of the communicator (such as the name of the interviewee or OpenAI), the phrase "personal communication," and the full date you obtained the information.
For sources with 2 authors, always name both. For sources with 3 or more authors, use only the first author listed, followed by "et al." meaning "and others."
You may introduce the author(s) last name(s) either as a part of your sentence or in parentheses at the end of the sentence.
EVERY sentence that takes information from a source MUST include a citation, even if you are paraphrasing the information.
