Citing sources<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
You must cite all sources and tools<\/b> you used in your work, such as publications, textbooks, software, etc.<\/abbr><\/cite><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

This also applies to translation tools or ChatGPT.<\/p>\n

In principle, only sources that can be read and verified<\/b> by others should be cited.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
You can cite either verbatim (direct quotation) or paraphrased in your own words (indirect quotation).<\/cite><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

In the Natural Sciences<\/b>, it is common to paraphrase<\/b> sources \u2013 in other words, to read the original text and summarize the relevant aspects in your own words.<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
For more than two authors, abbreviate with \u201cet al.<\/abbr>\u201d, e.g.<\/abbr> (B\u00f6hme et al.<\/abbr> 2014).<\/cite><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

When citing, you must also include the exact page number of the reference, e.g.<\/abbr> [5, p.<\/abbr> 854].<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
For multiple pages, indicate the range, e.g.<\/abbr> [5, p.<\/abbr> 852\u2013856].<\/cite><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

In direct quotations<\/b>, the cited text is placed in quotation marks and reproduced exactly as in the original source:<\/p>\n
