Share :

When preparing a paper such as a thesis, you must support it with relevant, valid, and reliable research. Often, you take supporting data by citing scientific journals, but you must cite them properly.

Can you cite journals in a thesis, dissertation, or scientific article? Yes, but you must cite them correctly. Citations and references in journals, such as theses, serve to strengthen arguments and provide credible references.

Is it allowed to quote from a thesis? Yes, but it is important to know some citation methods, both from first and second sources. Here are some guidelines on how to cite properly:

1. Quoting Indirectly

Indirect quoting means copying ideas from a source without adding or subtracting from the original words. The quote is copied as is without any changes.
