DEFINITION OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES
• Literature review
▪ It is composed of discussions of facts and principles to which the present study is related.
▪ It identifies, evaluates, and synthesizes the relevant literature within a particular field of research.
▪ The materials are usually found in scholarly articles, books, and other sources relevant to a particular area of
research.
• Related studies
▪ are from researchers or from official public offices, and thesis from different universities and libraries.

CHARACTERISTICS OF REVIEW OF RELATED
LITERATURE
AND STUDIES
1. The related materials should be as recent as possible.
2. Reviewed materials should be objective and unbiased.
3. Surveyed materials should be related to the study.
4. The reviewed materials should be based upon genuinely original and true facts or data must be valid
and reliable.
5. The reviewed materials should be based upon genuinely original and true facts or data must be valid
and reliable.

FOREIGN AND LOCAL LITERATURE
• Local Literature
▪ These are local materials usually printed and found in books, professional
journals and magazines, newspapers and University publications published
by the different colleges and universities in the Philippines.
• Foreign Literature
▪ These are materials printed in other countries with information related to the current
study and are found in books, professional journals, magazines and other
publications.
▪ Formula for citing a foreign language source in APA:
• Author Last Name, First Initial. (Year Published). Title in the original language
[Translated title]. Place of Publication: Publisher.
• APA citation sample:
de Saint-Exupéry, A. (1943). Le petit prince [The little prince]. Paris, France: Gallimard.
7
PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SOURCES
• Primary source
▪ is used broadly to embody all sources that are original. Primary sources provide first-hand information that is
closest to the object of study. Primary sources vary by discipline.
• Secondary source
▪ It is a source that provides non-original or secondhand data or information.

PROCESS
• Not a linear process

• Work on the literature before, during and after your study
• These steps can be applied to all kinds of literature reviews

❖ Identify unaddressed issues in previous
studies.
❖ Identify what is accurate and what is out

REFERENCING
▪ Referencing is also called as citation.
▪ Referencing can be defined as a method of acknowledging and recognizing someone for his or
her innovative work that you used in you research to back and support your idea.
▪ A reference usually includes the name of author, date of publication, name and location of the
publishing company, title of the journal or name of the book, title of the research or chapter’s
name, and DOI (Digital Object Identifier)
37
IMPORTANCE OF CITATION AND REFERENCING
• To show your reader you've done proper research by listing sources you used to get your information
• To be a responsible scholar by giving credit to other researchers and acknowledging their ideas
• To avoid plagiarism by quoting words and ideas used by other authors
• To allow your reader to track down the sources you used by citing them accurately in your paper by way
of footnotes, a bibliography or reference list
38
WHAT NEEDS TO BE REFERENCED?
Whenever an assignment uses words, facts, ideas, theories, or interpretations from other sources,
those sources must be referenced. Referencing is needed when:
• You have copied words from a book, article, or other source exactly .
• You have used an idea or fact from an outside source, even if you haven't used their exact wording.
39
REFERENCING STYLES
40
ESSENTIAL COMPONENTS OF REFERENCING
• Print Sources
*The components that constitute each reference entry for print sources include:
i. Author (it could be: a person as self-author(s) or as Editor(s), a corporate body, a government, a
conference, etc.).
ii. The date of publication (the year of publication, which to some kinds of material includes day
and month. But, where the year of publication is not seen, the copyright year is used but with a
“c” sign before the date (e.g. c2014). Where there is no date, the abbreviation “n.d”, for no date,
may be used.
iii. Title
iv. Edition
v. Place of Publication
vi. Publisher
vii. Volume, number and/ or page numbers
41
• Non-print Sources (electronic materials)
*To accurately cite and reference electronic sources of information, the following basic
information (which must appear in every likely credible electronic material) must be clearly visible where
available:
i. Name of the Author or Editor (if available)
ii. Title of the page/article
iii. Title of the web page (look on the site’s home page)
iv. Type of medium (for example electronic journal, online)
v. Date on which the website was updated or the copyright date
vi. Full internet address (URL) (for example http://www...)
vii. Date on which the website was accessed
42
APA (AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION)
▪ This
style of referencing came forth in 1929 in the form of
“Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association”.
46
SHORT QUOTATIONS
• When directly quoting from a work, include the author, year of publication, and the page number for the
reference (preceded by “p”).
• Introduce the quotation with a signal phrase that includes the author’s name followed by the date of
publication in parentheses
According to Jones (1998), “Students often had difficulty using APA style, especially when it was their first
time”(p.199)
47

LONG QUOTATIONS

SUMMARY OR PARAPHRASE
• If you are paraphrasing an idea from another work, you only have to make reference to the author and
year of publication in your in-text reference, but APA guidelines encourage you to also provide the page
number (although it is not required).
According to Jones (1998), APA style is a difficult citation format for first-time learners.
APA style is a difficult citation format for first-time learners (Jones, 1998, p. 199).
51
CITING A WORK BY TWO AUTHORS:
54
UNKNOWN AUTHOR
• If the work does not have an author, cite the source by its title in the signal phrase or use the first word
or two in the parentheses. Titles of books and reports are italicized; titles of articles, chapters, and web
pages are in quotation marks. APA style calls for capitalizing important words in titles when they are
written in the text (but not when they are written in reference lists).
A similar study was done of students learning to format research papers ("Using Citations," 2001).
• Note: In the rare case the "Anonymous" is used for the author, treat it as the author's name (Anonymous,
2001). In the reference list, use the name Anonymous as the author.
55
ORGANIZATION AS AN AUTHOR
56
ORGANIZATION AS AN AUTHOR
57
TWO OR MORE WORKS IN THE SAME PARENTHESES
58
TWO OR MORE WORKS BY THE SAME AUTHOR IN THE
SAME PARENTHESES:
59
• Following this pattern, multiple works from multiple
authors can be contained within a single
parenthetical. Separate authors' sources with a
semicolon. Note, however, that the authors' names
should be provided in the order they appear in the
reference list regardless of when their sources were
published.
(Jones, 2010, 2018, in press; Smith, 2002, 2003,
2004, 2006; Zepf, 2019)
60
AUTHORS WITH THE SAME LAST NAME
61
TWO OR MORE WORKS BY THE SAME AUTHOR IN
THE SAME YEAR
• For interviews, letters, e- mails, and other person to person communications, cite the communicators
name, the fact that it was personal communication, and the date of the communication. Do not include
personal communication in the reference list.
(E. Robbins, personal communication, January 4, 2001).
A.P. Smith also claimed that many of her students had difficulties with APA style (personal
communication, November 3, 2002).
63
CITING INDIRECT SOURCES
65
UNKNOWN AUTHOR AND UNKNOWN DATE
• All lines after the first line of each entry in your reference list should be indented one-half inch
from the left margin. This is called hanging indentation.
• Authors' names are inverted (last name first); give the last name and initials for all authors of a
particular work for up to and including seven authors. If the work has more than seven authors,
list the first six authors and then use ellipses after the sixth author's name. After the ellipses, list
the last author's name of the work.
68
• Reference list entries should be alphabetized
by the last name of the first author of each
work.
• For multiple articles by the same author, or
authors listed in the same order, list the entries
in chronological order, from earliest to most
recent.
• Present the journal title in full.
69
• Maintain the punctuation and capitalization
that is used by the journal in its title.
• For example: ReCALL not RECALL or
Knowledge Management Research & Practice
not Knowledge Management Research and
Practice.
• Capitalize all major words in journal titles.
When referring to the titles of books,
chapters, articles, or webpages, capitalize
only the first letter of the first word of a title
and subtitle, the first word after a colon or a
dash in the title, and proper nouns.
70
• Note that the distinction here is based on the
type of source being cited. Academic journal
titles have all major words capitalized, while
other sources' titles do not.
• Italicize titles of longer works such as books
and journals.
• Do not italicize, underline, or put quotes
around the titles of shorter works such as
journal articles or essays in edited collections.
