When you borrow another person’s words or ideas byquoting, paraphrasing and / or summarizing them, you mustshow where you got the ideas by putting certaininformation in parenthesis immediately after the materialyou have borrowed (Oshima, A. & A. Hogue, 1999).
All work taken from another source must be acknowledged and documented.
Citation

Two ways of giving acknowledgement:
Direct method i.e. quotation. Quotation is copying word-for-word from a published text,
transcript (paper, journal, website, book, etc.)
However, changing words or sentence structure from the original means it is no longer a direct quote.
Indirect method by summarizing and paraphrasing.

Ways of quoting:
For a short quotation of less than 40 words, use a brief phraseas an introduction to the quotation e.g.:
Pennycook (1996) claims “All language learning is to someextent a process of borrowing others’ words”
Longer quotations stand alone in the text (usually italic) e.g.:
In a seminal article on plagiarism, Pennycook cautioned:
All language learning is to some extent a process of borrowing others’ words and we need to be flexible, not dogmatic, about where we draw boundaries between acceptable and unacceptable textual borrowings (1996:227).

Original
Although at least 600 of the devices are used in the US, there are apparently only three in Britain.
Paraphrased

Original
Dektor claims that the muscle tightening occurs very quickly, and can change from one word to the next, so that it is possible to pick out a word or phrase that cause stress.
Paraphrased
An anxiety-inducing word or phrase may be obvious, as the muscles can tighten between words, according to Dexter.
Paraphrasing Techniques: Changing the order of ideas
![Page 14: QAB 4044 FINAL YEAR PROJECT IInsza87-fyp2.weebly.com/uploads/9/8/3/3/98334558/fyp...full details of these in your list of references.” 2.

Original
In the US, the device is used for pre-employment interviews, with interviews such as “Have you used marijuana?” and for monthly checks with branch managers, asking questions like, “Do you suspect any present employees of cheating the company?” – which at least prevents a manager from setting his own pace to investigate possible suspicious behavior.
Paraphrased
The PSE device is used in America to ask prospective employees if they have taken narcotics and to question financial managers about possible fraud in the company. This is a prevention against branch managers conducting their own investigations.
Paraphrasing Techniques: Breaking long sentence into short ones

Original
Normally, but not under stress, these voluntary muscles vibrate at 8-12Hz, and this adds a clearly noticeable frequency-modulated component to the voice. The PSE works by analyzing this infrasonic FM component.
Paraphrased
The PSE analyzes vibrations of muscles in the mouth and throat which usually vibrate at 8-12Hz. However, under stress, these muscles tighten and the PSE can identify this change in the voice.
Paraphrasing Techniques: Simplifying abstract ideas

IEEE
