Referencing
The set of papers, collection of published and unpublished sources which the researcher has studied and gone through to bolster the research work with adequate evidence are known as references. It is otherwise known as a list of cited references or bibliography. Every researcher or the student should present a list of papers, books, and other sources of data for their written assignments. This list should essentially include every source used in the thesis writing. The collection and the list of all the above mentioned sources and also the background reading constitute a bibliography. The part of one's research work that is entirely based on another's conclusion and research should be acknowledged. If the researcher fails to acknowledge the references, it may be considered as plagiarism. The quantity of reading and the nature of the sources are projected by references. It is vital to suggest or cite references or sources from which the reader can gain insight into what the researcher says with ease. The more accurate and detailed the source is, better the reader understands the information present in the assignment. These references serve as a basis for evaluation by the tutor or the research guide.
