    WRITING THE REVIEW OF LIT
    FOUR TYPES OF ENTRY THAT MAY BE
    EMPLOYED

    1. Quotation - the exact words of an author are


    reproduced and enclosed in quotation marks. It
    is important to copy the statement verbatim and
    to indicate the exact page reference.
    WRITING THE REVIEW OF LIT
    Example of a direct quotation:
    Cambre and Cook (2015) said that
    “computer anxiety as the feelings of worries,
    fear, or incompetence experienced by users
    when they use or even anticipate using
    computer technologies” (p. 17).
    Computer anxiety is found to be “a source
    of negative impact on organizational
    performance” (Desai & Richards, 2008, p. 28).
    WRITING THE REVIEW OF LIT
    2. Paraphrase - you restate the author's thoughts in your
    own words.
    According to Cambre and Cook (2015), computer
    anxiety refers to the emotional uncertainties experienced by
    users when using technologies.
    Computer anxiety is believed to have a negative
    implication on the performance of individuals (Desai &
    Richards, 2008, p. 28).
