Referencing is a way of acknowledging other peoples’ ideas and work. This is done through a citation
(in the text of your work) and a reference at the end of your work which should be included in the
REFERENCES LIST.

Citing Within the Text of Your Work
The citation within the text of your work is a brief acknowledgement (Surname, Year). If you are using a direct quotation or paraphrasing a specific idea you need to also include the page number, e.g. (Surname, Year, p.12). This is so that the person reading/marking your work can locate the specific information you are referring to without needing to read the entire work. Please note quotations are in quotation marks.
Example paraphrase:
…Multiple factors impact an individual’s perceived body image. Jones (2010, p.21) has suggested that body image is related to self-esteem, others believe a more complex relationship exists (Philips, 1995; Norton, 2005).
Example quotation:
... Whilst it is possible that “poor parenting has little effect on primary educational development it more profoundly affects secondary or higher educational achievement” (Healey, 2003, p.22).
