Direct Quote: In-text citation Obesity was once considered “either a

moral failing or evidence of underlying psychopathology” (Yanovski and Yanovski, 2002, p. 592).

A relationship is defined as “the interdependence between two or more people” (Coombs, 2001, p.106).

Page 14: ISTC Fa 2014 Class 3

Direct Quote: In-text citation Longer than 40 words?

Indented five spaces from left margin in block format

Usually it is better to paraphrase

Page 15: ISTC Fa 2014 Class 3

The wrong way to paraphrase:Failure to Cite Source Original “They desire, for

example, virtue and the absence of vice, no less really than pleasure and the absence of pain.”

Source: Mill, John Stuart. “Utilitarianism.” On Liberty and Other Essays. New York: Oxford University Press, 1998. Quote is from page 169.

Paraphrase People want

morality just as much as they want happiness.

Page 16: ISTC Fa 2014 Class 3

The wrong way to paraphrase:Lack of Significant Rewording Original “To the young

American architects who made the pilgrimage, the most dazzling figure of all was Walter Gropius, founder of the Bauhaus School.”

Source: Wolfe, Tom. From Bauhaus to Our House. New York: Farrar Straus Giroux, 1981. Quote is from page 10.

Paraphrase To young American

architects who went to Germany, the most dazzling figure was Walter Gropius, founder of the Bauhaus School (Wolfe, 1981).

Page 17: ISTC Fa 2014 Class 3

Paraphrase: In-text citation Original America today has

veered too far in the direction of formal testing without adequate consideration of the costs and limitations of an exclusive emphasis on that approach.

Paraphrase In the United States,

the education system places too much emphasis on formal testing, overlooking the limitations and expenses imposed when that assessment strategy is employed exclusively (Gardner, 1993).

Page 18: ISTC Fa 2014 Class 3

Paraphrase: In-text citation Original The Republican

Convention of 1860 … is sometimes seen as a symbol of Whig triumph within the party. A closer look, however, indicates that the Whig’s triumph within the party was of a very tentative nature.”

Paraphrase Contrary to many

historians, Eric Foner (1995)argues that the Republican platform of 1860 should not be understood as an indication of Whig dominance of the party.

Page 19: ISTC Fa 2014 Class 3

In-text Citations More than one author

Two authors Greenfield and Savage (1990) (Greenfield & Savage, 1990, p. 567)

first citation. Terrace, Petitto, Sanders, and Bever (1979) believed… (Terrace, Petitto, Sanders, & Bever, 1979)

After you have identified all, you may use “et al.” Terrace et al. (1979) stated…… (Terrace et al., 1979)

Six or more authors Use first authors last name and then et al.

Page 20: ISTC Fa 2014 Class 3

In-text Citations Organization as author

Government or other organization Use organization name as author in signal

phrase Use organization in parenthetical citation

The National Institute of Mental Health (2001)…

(National Institute of Mental Health, 2001)

Page 21: ISTC Fa 2014 Class 3

Special cases If you have more than one author with

the same last name, use the first initial in the citation (Smith, A., 2002)

If you have more than one work in the same year by the same author, use letters a, b, c, etc. to indicate correct source (Entman, 2004a)

Page 22: ISTC Fa 2014 Class 3
