IX - QUOTES IN THE BODY OF THE TEXT RAE adopts ABNT rules, incorporating all quotes in the body of the text within the system author- date. Therefore, footnotes quotes are not used.

When standardizing texts to be submitted to RAE, the following exceptions regarding ABNT quote rules should be considered:

• use “and others” instead of “et al”; • separate by commas names of co-authors (instead of semicolon); • do not use period after quotes in brackets, whose sentence/quote has already been

concluded by other period and/or punctuation symbol. Examples: “[...] institutional intervention in information technology innovations [...] by potential users”. (KING and others, 1994, pg. 139 and 149.) “the importance of an effect is approximately the square root of the variance component” (BRUSH and BROMILEY, 1997, p. 833).

IX.1. Quote general presentation rules

IX.1.a. Quotes general presentation rules Suppressions, interpolations, comments, emphasis or highlights, translations and oral information should be indicated as follows:

- Suppressions: [...] - Interpolations, inclusions or comments: [ ] - Emphasis or highlights: include the expression “our bold type” in brackets, in biographical data of quote. - Translation: include the expression “our translation” in brackets, in biographical data of quote. - When data is obtained through oral information (lectures, debates, communications etc), indicate, in brackets, the oral information expression, mentioning data available.

IX.1.b. Direct quote It is the textual transcription of part of a paper from the referred author.

Up to three lines are inserted in the text, in quotation marks. In case there are quotation marks in the original text, they are replaced, in the quote, by single quotes. It should be included in the text the page number of the extracted quoted and, when applicable, also the volume, tome, section – this data should follow the date, separated by comma and preceded with the abbreviated term that characterizes them. According to Sá (1995, p. 27): “[...] through the same ‘art of conversation’ which covers such wide and

significant part of our daily existence [...]”

Meyer starts from a part of “14 de maio”, from The Week: “There was sun, and it was a big sun, on that

Sunday of 1888, on which the Senate voted it into law, as the regent sanctioned [...]” (ASSIS, 1994, v.

3, p. 583).

“[...] so that there is no room for the production of degenerate, whether physical or moral, real threats

to society.” (SOUTO, 1916, p. 46, our bold type)

“IES will implement legitimate and transparent democratic mechanisms, for systematic evaluation of

its activities, taking into consideration its institutional objectives and its commitment to society.”

(ANTEPROJETO..., 1987, p. 55)

“When doing so may be immersed in guilt, perversion, hate of himself [...] hold himself a sinner and

identify with his sin.” (RAHNER, 1962, v. 4, p. 463, our translation.)

With more than three lines they should be presented in a separate paragraph with 4 cm indentation from the left margin with font smaller than the font in the text and without quotation marks. RAE uses it in these quotes Times New Roman 11 and keep line spacing in the text.

The relation between experience and theory, for sciences, corresponds in the history

field, to the relation between document and theory. In other words, the lack of

theoretical frame considers both the scientific experience and the document, blind

collections. For that reason we find in a history paper, in case of history of

philosophical ideas a conclusion congruent to Einstein's. (LIMA, 1986, p. 198)

IX.2. Indirect quote Text based on the paper of the referred author. In this case, quote number page is optional. One Author Law cannot be seen as passive and reflexive, but an active and partially autonomous power which is disseminated through several classes and compels leaders to lean towards demands of the dominated people (GENOVESE, 1974, oral information). Two to three authors Merriam and Caffarella (1991) observe that the location of resources plays a crucial role in the self-studying learning process. Indeed, similar establishment of the problem would prevent the risk of considering literature solely as one more source of contents previously available (BODIE, KANE, MARCUS, 2000, p. 114).

More than three authors Lacerda and others (2000) state that... Authors whose names and publication years coincide, are differentiated by adding the initial letters of their first names.

(SILVA, J. VII.1979.c. 2) (SILVA, M. R, 1979, p. 22) If first name, initials and year coincide, they are differentiated by the first name in full.

(BARBOSA, Cássio, 1965) (BARBOSA, Celso, 1965) Several documents by the same authorship If the source of the quote is documents published in different years and by the same author, the years are separated by commas. (DREYFUSS, 1989, 1991, 1995) (CRUZ, CORREA, COSTA, 1998, 1999, 2000)

Several documents by the same authorship and same year of publication Documents by the same author, published in coinciding years, are distinguished by lower case letters added to the year. According to Reeside (1927a, 1927b)... Several documents by different authorship When an idea is shared by several authors, they are all mentioned.

Literature on dissatisfaction and complaint has gone through important conceptual developments (STEPHENS and GWINNER, 1998; SINGH and WILKES, 1996). When an idea is shared by several authors, authors and co-authors are all mentioned. “[...] such as global mandates or excellence centers, the evolution of strategic roles and relationships between subsidiaries and other units o the corporation” (GUPTA and GOVINDARAJAN, 1991; ROTH and MORRISON, 1992; ANDERSSON and FORSGREN, 2000; FEINBERG, 2000; HOLM and PEDERSEN, 2000; FROST and others, 2002). Document with no publication date informed or not accurate The year is informed between brackets, as the case may be.

According to Florenzano ([197-]), when the decade is certain; According to ... [1956?], when it refers to a probable date; ... [197-?], when it makes reference to a probable decade; ... [1971 or 1972], when it is one year or the other;
