SZABIST (A university in Pakistan) SZABIST is pronounced as "S-Zebist", i.e. 1st letter (S) is pronounced as Initialism, while rest of it (ZABIST) is pronounced as one word i.e. "Zebist".. So the "ZABIST" is pronounced as both the "Initialism" & "Acronym". What actually "ZABIST" is? Is it an "Initialism" or an "Acronym"?
A combination of both :)
Well explained
What if the article is edited or reviewed? How i'm supposed to mention the editor or the reviewer.
Typically, editors will go after the title of the work. The initial of the given name goes first, followed by the surname and the letters 'Ed.' following in parentheses. Something like this. J. Horn (Ed.).
good shi
Thank you so much. You have helped me a lot
Thank you!
Thank you sir. That was helpful.
When do you include DOI
Whenever you access the source online, you need to provide a means to access it. In the case of journal articles, that typically means using a DOI link (though in rare cases a journal article may not have a DOI, son in those cases you'll use the article's URL). However, there are some online books published by journals or databases that are assigned a DOI. Thus, if you access and ebook and it has an DOI link/number, then you'll provide that in your reference. If it is an online book but there is only a traditional URL and not a DOI, then you'll simply use the URL. If it is a print book, then you don't need to include any online information
a video which was made 3 years ago gonna save my life in 3 days later, thank you for your wonderful and hilarious explanation
Thanks so much for your kind words :)
👍 Great
Thank you!

Very helpful thanks
Thanks! What about if I want to cite more than one author from my source. (Joy, 2000; Cellan-Jones, 2014; Bostrom, 2014, as all cited in Makridakis, 2017)
The idea approach is to go to those sources and cite them directly. I don't know that there is a format for multiple indirect citations because the punctuation would make it syntactically ambiguous as to which sources were cited indirectly. The other options are to simply cite one of the sources indirectly or narrative frame the conclusion as being based on a literature review. For instance, "Based on a review of current literature, Makridakis (2017) reports that... Hope this helps :)
@@jasonhorn901 Thank you so much I truly appreciate it 🥰
ur video was the best one amongst all others on this topic, very elaborated with explanation with examples,thankuuu sooooooo much,u made my day, no one was explaining the order of the authors except u,u helped me a lot,May God be happy from u.🙂🙂
Thanks so much for your kind words :) That means a lot to me.
Really nice vid, thanks! ..Though still struggling with why it's 'hard-working' but 'brilliantly written'?? ..The -ly seems to mean no hyphen but still can't quite see the reasoning as they both modify!
It can be tricky because of irregular adverbs. And you are 100%: They both modify. And these are GREAT examples. The question though is "What do they modify?" Adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs. Adjectives modify nouns. If you have and adverb modifying and adjective, that is in turn modifying a noun, then no hyphen is needed. In your example, a 'brilliantly written novel' needs no hyphen because 'brilliantly' is an adverb that describe the adjective 'written' (which is a bit of odd adjective in that context but it can serve as an adjective) which in turn modifies the noun. In 'hard working horse.' That's tricky. Is 'hard' an irregular adverb (without an 'ly') that is modifying the adjective 'working'? If so, no hyphen because it is describing 'horse.' However, it 'working' functions as a noun (the act of working) that is being described as 'hard' (and adjective in that case) and the two are collectively describing the horse, then a hyphen would be needed. The semantics of that particular issue are interesting, and though there are subjective interpretations and potentially different intent, I've seen this combination typically hyphenated or simply put together in one word with no hyphen: hardworking. I often use Google ngram viewer to determine what the most prevalent usage is because, regardless of how 'prescriptive' grammatical rules suggest something should be done, 'descriptive' approaches simply observe how language is used, and how something is most often used usually ends up defining the rules that eventually get prescribed. Here's a link to the Google ngram view on 'hard working,' 'hard-working,' and 'hardworking,' all of which have been used. And thanks for the great question. I hope this helped: books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=hard+working%2C+hard-working%2C+hardworking&year_start=1800&year_end=2019&corpus=en-2019&smoothing=3
Practice is spelled wrong.
Thanks! I hate when I miss those. Thanks for letting me know :)
Please what if you are asked to add date of retrieved?
After the page number and period and before the URL/doig link, you'll put the following: Retrieve January 13, 2024, from Make sense? :)

Thank you, this was explained very well. 😄
Thanks for your kind words!
Thank you so much for this!
You are very welcome :)
please, how can i do this in mendeley ?
I'm not sure how Mendeley works as I don't use it an instead create citations and references myself. Though reference generators can be helpful, they often make mistakes, so it is always best to double check their work. Sorry. I realize this might now help much.
@@jasonhorn901thank you very much for your interest
Dear sir, I am IM HOL, as a student at NUCK in Cambodia. I am not sure how to write the reference in the book with Volume and the name of the book is HANDBOOK OF RUBBER Volume 1 Agronomy. Edited by L.M.K. Tillekeratne Director. So could you please write the reference in APA style. Would like to say thanks a million for your kind. Kind regards, IM HOL
The template provided by APA looks like this: Harris, K. R., Graham, S., & Urdan T. (Eds.). (2012). APA educational psychology handbook (Vol. 1). American Psychological Association. Follow that template, and you should be good (but be sure to italicize the title. The italics doesn't show up in UA-cam's comments section. Hope this helps.
Thanks for your advice, Dr
What's Abt page numbers are like(56-65,100) in print magazine and volume (issue) 62(5) then how will write?
It looks like you've answered your own question. If pages are separated (which often happens in newspapers), and you are citing the print version (which is far less common now), you'd do something like (1, 4-5), separating the different ranges. I have another video on journal article specifically. Those will be formatted as you have, with the volume number italicized.
Thanks❤
How to direct quote something from WHO
If there isn't a page number, you can use a paragraph number (WHO, 2023, para. 3). Hope that helps :)
I never knew what the big deal with the DOI number was until now, thank you!!!
what if there are multiple authors?
Thanks so much for your question. You include up to 20 authors, and if there are more than 20, the first 19 and last one. Details are outlined here: ua-cam.com/video/aZ8Ey7Afhjg/v-deo.html
I like how more in-depth this goes, showing different cases for different scenarios, it helped a lot and saved me time writing my paper!
Thanks for your kind words!
what about in the reference list? Do we type all of the authors names ?
In a reference entry, you will include up to 20 names. If there are more than 20 names, then you will include the first 19 and the last one. Details for formatting are outlined here: ua-cam.com/video/aZ8Ey7Afhjg/v-deo.html
Thank you for giving clear and simple instruction!
Thank you for your kind and generous words.
Thank you for posting this. Looks like I got marked down for missing the dash after n.d. I’m glad I just found your video. I have a project with three non-dated sources from the same author due tomorrow and she’s only allowing til tonight to get it to her for a non-graded review.
Ouch! Getting docked marks for that seems a bit harsh. I'm glad this can help though :) Thanks for your kind words!
Hello there I have a question. If there is just a co-author mentioned, and no author, how do I cite in that case?
Thanks for the question. I don't know an instance where the author wouldn't be mentioned but the co-author would be. Those citations depend on whether there are two authors or more than two. Check this video out for details: ua-cam.com/video/W_qWEkB8VKM/v-deo.html
