Takeaways

• 😀 Proper citation of journals in a thesis is essential for academic integrity and clarity.
• 😀 Citations should be placed in different parts of the thesis, such as the theoretical study, previous research, and discussion chapters.
• 😀 In-text citations typically follow the format: Author's last name (Year) for the first instance, and (Author, Year) for subsequent mentions.
• 😀 When citing a specific page, include a colon after the year, followed by the page number (e.g., Kotler, 2005: 134).
• 😀 Paraphrased content doesn’t require page numbers, only the author's last name and year.
• 😀 When citing multiple authors, list them all in the first citation, but use 'et al.' for subsequent citations after the first author.
• 😀 For citations with four or fewer authors, list all authors; for more than four, use the first author followed by 'et al.'
• 😀 If citing sources with more than six authors, you can either use 'et al.' or indicate the first author and 'et al.' to avoid excessive length.
• 😀 In cases where a source quotes another, cite both the original author and the secondary source (e.g., Siagian, 2013, in Kotler, 2005).
• 😀 Avoid overusing multiple quotes within quotes. Focus on citing one primary source to maintain clarity and prevent citation errors.
• 😀 Adhering to the proper citation style, especially in Indonesia, is critical for consistency and academic compliance in bibliographies.

Q & A

How should a single author be cited in the thesis introduction?

A single author should be cited by mentioning their last name, followed by the year of publication in parentheses. For example, 'Kotler (2005)'. When citing at the end of a sentence, it should appear as '(Kotler, 2005)'.

What if I need to cite a specific page from a journal or book?

If citing a specific page, include the page number after the year, separated by a colon. For example, 'Kotler (2005: 134)' for an in-text citation. At the end of the sentence, it would be '(Kotler, 2005: 134)'.

How do I cite a paraphrased sentence in my thesis?

For paraphrased sentences, only the author's last name and year are needed, with no page number required. For example, 'Kotler (2005)' for a paraphrase.

What is the citation format when two authors are involved?

When citing two authors, list both authors' last names, separated by 'and'. The citation should look like this: '(Kotler and Keller, 2005)' for an in-text citation.

How do I cite more than two authors?

For citations with more than two authors, list all the authors' last names or use 'et al.' after the first author. For example, 'Kotler et al. (2005)' or '(Kotler, Keller, & David, 2005)'.

What should I do if there are six or more authors for a citation?

When there are six or more authors, it is best to either list the first author followed by 'et al.' or use ellipses to indicate there are more authors. For example, 'Kotler et al. (2005)' or 'Kotler et al., 2005' at the end of the sentence.

What if I need to cite a source with multiple authors in the introduction?

For sources with multiple authors in the introduction, list the authors' names in order and include the publication year. For example, 'Kotler, Keller, and David (2005)' or '(Kotler, Keller, & David, 2005)'.

How should I handle quoting a book or article that already quotes another source?

This is called a 'quote within a quote'. If quoting from a source that quotes another, you must clearly indicate both sources. For example, 'Siagian (2013) in Kotler (2005)' or '(Siagian, 2013, in Kotler, 2005)'.

How do I handle citations in the conclusion or discussion section of the thesis?

The same citation rules apply in the conclusion or discussion section. Always cite sources using the author's last name and publication year, and include page numbers when directly quoting a specific part of a source.

What should I remember when citing sources in my thesis to avoid plagiarism?

To avoid plagiarism, ensure that all quotes are cited properly with correct page numbers for direct quotes, and paraphrase ideas in your own words while still attributing the original author. Always cite the source whether paraphrasing or quoting directly.
