थेसिस लेखनका विकृति

27 Feb 2014 

सन् २०१३ मा जर्मन शिक्षा मन्त्रीले बौद्धिक चोरीको आरोपमा आफ्नो पिएचडी उपाधि नै गुमाइन्। सन् २०११ मा जर्मनकै रक्षा मन्त्रीको पिएचडी थेसिस मौलिक अनुसन्धान नभएर चोरी गरिएको भन्ने आरोप लाग्यो। जुन आरोपका कारण ती मन्त्रीले पदबाटै हट्नुपर्यो ।

जनवरीमा मस्को टाइमले छापेको समाचारअनुसार त्यहाँका एक व्यक्तिले आफ्नो पिएचडी थेसिसमा ९९ दशमलव ३२ प्रतिशत अन्य स्रोतबाट चोरी गरेको र ० दशमलव ६८ प्रतिशत मात्र मौलिक काम समावेश गरेकेा भेटियो। उल्लिखित समाचारहरुले थेसिस लेखनमा हुने ‘प्लेजरिजम' अर्थात् बौद्धिक चोरीको भयाबह रूपलाई मात्र इंगित गर्दैन। मौलिक अनुसन्धान गरी शोधपत्र तयार गर्नु कति कठिन छ भन्ने पनि बुझाउँछ र विद्यार्थीलाई मौलिक सिर्जनाका लागि अभिप्रेरित हुन आँखा खुलाउँछ। 

त्रिभुवन विश्वविद्यालयमा गुणस्तर सुधारको बहस चर्किरहेको छ। हालै प्रारम्भ भएको सेमेस्टर प्रणालीलाई विश्वविद्यालय सुधारको एउटा खुट्किलो मान्नेहरुको कमी छैन। तर त्रिवि सुधारको नाममा सैद्धान्तिक बहस गर्न जति सहज छ व्यावहारिकरूपमा कार्यान्वयन गर्न त्यत्तिकै कठिन। गुणस्तरीय शिक्षालाई मापन गर्ने आधार भनेको विद्यार्थीमा प्राप्त प्रयोगात्मक र अनुसन्धानात्मक ज्ञान हुन्। तीनघण्टे जाँचमा त जान्नेले भन्दा घोकेर अथवा चोरेर लेख्नेले बढी अंक प्राप्त गर्न सक्छ। अनुसन्धानात्मक ज्ञान दिनका लागि त्रिविका अधिकांश विभागले मास्टर्स तहमा शोधपत्र लेखन अनिवार्य बनाएका छन् तर यो शोधपत्र लेखन विसंगति र विकृतिको एउटा पर्याय बन्न पुगेको छ। जुन सुधारका लागि रणनीतिकरूपमा अघि बढ्नु जरुरी छ।

हुन त मैले प्राध्यापनको लामो अनुभव सँगालेको छैन। बितेका २ वर्षमा जाली परेका सडकहरु पार गर्दै धेरै पटक कीर्तिपुर आउजाउ गरेको र केही विद्यार्थीको थेसिस गाइड भएको कारण मात्र म यस विषयमा लेख्न प्रेरित भएको पनि होइन। ‘थेसिस बिक्रीमा छ' भन्ने आसयका विज्ञापनहरु ठाउँठाउँमा देखेपछि नै यस क्षेत्रको विसंगतिले मलाइ छोएको हो। रत्नपार्कदेखि कीर्तिपुरसम्म विद्यार्थी ओहोरदोहोर गर्ने बाटामा बोल्ड गरिएको कालो अक्षरमा यस्तो विज्ञापन टाँसिएको छ। अधिकांश विज्ञापनमा एउटा थेसिसको मूल्य ५ हजारदेखि ७ हजार रुपियाँ तोकिएको देखिन्छ। 

मिडिया तथा अन्य क्षेत्रले त्रिविका शिक्षकहरुलाई अक्षम र विद्यार्थी तथा विश्वविद्यालयप्रति गैरजिम्मेवार छन् भन्ने आरोप विगतदेखि नै लगाउँदै आएका छन्। राजनीतिक दलका विद्यार्थी संगठनले पनि शिक्षकहरुको दोहोलो काट्दै आएका छन्। सबै संकाय र विभागको वकालत गर्न त म सक्दिन तर समाजशास्त्र विभागमा प्राध्यापकहरुको क्षमतामा प्रश्न उठाउनुपर्ने अवस्था देखिँदैन। हुन त यी आरोपप्रति पूर्वाग्रही हुनु पनि जरुरी छैन। किनकि विरोधले नै त सुधार निम्त्याउने हो। यहाँ छुटेको कुरा के छ भने विद्यार्थीलाई सुधार्नेतर्फ कसैले झक्झक्याएको छैन। जबसम्म विद्यार्थी आफैँ मौलिक सिर्जनाका लागि तयार हुँदैन, शोधपत्रको गुणस्तर सुधार र बौद्धिक चोरी हटाउन निकै कठिन हुन्छ। 

कम्तिमा ६–७ जना विद्यार्थीसँगको नियमित संगतबाट मैले केही अनुभव सँगालेकी छु। यी विद्यार्थीले त्रिविमा थेसिस लेखनको यथार्थ बुझाउन सबैको प्रतिनिधित्व नगर्लान् तर एउटा ठूलै समूहको प्रतिनिधित्व भने अवश्यै गर्छन्। अघिल्लो दिनसम्म दुई लाइन नेपालीमा समेत शुद्ध नलेख्ने र अंग्रेजीमा लेखिएका शिक्षण सामग्री पल्टाउनै नसकेको भन्ने विद्यार्थीले भोलिपल्ट ‘म्याम मैले अंग्रेजीमा लेख्ने निधो गरेँ' भनिन् र रातारात अंग्रेजीमा थेसिस तयार पारिन्। कसरी सम्भव भयो? अर्को एक विद्यार्थी यस्तो भेटियो जो थेसिस पुनर्लेखन गर्न दिएको सुझावलाई कुनै वास्ता नगर्ने तर फोन र मेसेजबाट ‘मेरो थेसिस किन एसेप्ट नभएको हो? मेरा साथीहरुले त मैलेभन्दा ढिलो सुरु गरेका थिए डिफेन्स पनि भैसक्यो भनेर प्रश्न गर्ने। अर्को विद्यार्थीको भनाइ यस्तो थियो– ‘म्याम बच्चा सानो छ महिलाको समस्या महिलाले बुझिदिनुपर्योे।' उनको सानो बच्चा हुनाले फोनबाट सरसल्लाह गर्न सकिएला। इमेलबाट कम्युनिकेसन गर्न सकिएला तर थेसिसको गुणस्तरमा भने सम्झैाता हुन सक्दैन नि। 

एक विद्यार्थीले अलिकति घुमाउरो पारामा धम्की दिइन्– ‘म्याम लोकसेवाको जाँच दिँदैछु। के थाहा अधिकृत नै भइन्छ कि, आज थेसिसमा मात्र हाम्रो सम्बन्ध होइन नि।' गत चैतमा तिनको अन्तिम मौका थियो थेसिस सक्नुपर्ने। डिफेन्समा सुधारका लागि सुझाव दिँदै एक महिनामा पुनः थेसिस शिक्षकलाई देखाउने भनियो। उनले न सम्पर्क गरिन् न त थेसिसमा कुनै सुधार नै गरिन्। एकैचोटी थेसिस बाइन्ड गरेर डिमार्टमेन्टमा बुझाइछन्। कार्यालय सहायकले ‘म्यामले हेर्नुभएको थेसिस छ, साइन गर्नुपर्यो्' भने। सुझावअनुसार एक अक्षरै सुधारिएको थिएन। 

गएको आइतबार एक विद्यार्थीले कम्तिमा दश पटक फोन गरिन्। यही चैतमा उनले थेसिस बुझाउनुपर्ने अन्तिम समय रे। पहिलो पटक भेट्दा नै उनले थेसिस प्रपोजल तयार गरेकी थिइन्। थेसिस गाइडको यसमा सल्लाह नै छैन। तिनी चाहन्थिन्, मैले हेर्दै नहेरी उनको थेसिस प्रपोजल स्वीकृत गरौं र अबको एक महिनामै थेसिस पास गरौं । मैले असमर्थता जनाएपछि उनले मलाई अर्को थेसिस गाइड खोज्ने जानकारी दिइन्। थेसिस लेखनका निम्ति विद्यार्थीसामु चुनौती नभएका होइनन्। थुप्रै समस्या र चुनौती छन्। अहिले वार्षिक परीक्षा प्रणालीमा दुई वर्षे कोर्स पूरा गरेपछि मात्र थेसिस लेखन सुरु गर्ने चलन छ जसले शिक्षक विद्यार्थी अन्तरक्रियामा समस्या उत्पन्न गराएको छ। सेमेस्टर प्रणाली सुरु भएपछि कम्तिमा पनि दोस्रो सेमेस्टरबाट थेसिस लेखन प्रारम्भ गराउने हो भने विद्यार्थीको समय पनि बचत हुनसक्छ र शिक्षक विद्यार्थीको अन्तरक्रिया पनि प्रभावकारी हुनसक्छ। 

थेसिस लेखनमा देखिएको समस्यामा विद्यार्थीमात्र जिम्मेवार छैनन्। त्रिवि प्रशासन पनि उत्तिकै दोषी छ। त्यहाँ आवश्यक स्रोत सामग्री अभाव छ र भएका सामग्रीमा पनि सहज पहुँच छैन। त्रिवि केन्द्रीय लाइब्रेरी कीर्तिपुरमा हाल पढाइ भइरहेका कैयौं पुस्तक र सन्दर्भ सामग्रीको एकप्रतिसम्म पनि उपलब्ध छैन। नियमित पढाइ भइरहेका पाठ्यपुस्तकसम्म पनि लाइब्रेरीमा नरहनु लाजमर्दो विषय हो। त्रिविले हरेक विभागलाई पाठ्यक्रममा समावेश किताव तथा जर्नलको सूची लाइब्रेरीलाई दिने र लाइब्रेरीले तत्काल ती पुस्तकहरु किन्ने व्यवस्था गर्नुपर्छ। विद्यार्थीको मागबमोजिम पनि पुस्तक उपलब्ध गराउने व्यवस्था गर्नुपर्छ। यसो भएमा लाइब्रेरी पनि अपडेट हुन्छ र शिक्षक विद्यार्थीले पनि अध्ययन सामग्री प्राप्त गर्छन्। विज्ञान संकायका केमेस्ट्री, फिजिक्स, जुलोजी र बोट्नीलगायतका विभागमा अध्ययन गर्ने विद्यार्थीको समस्या अझ बढी छ। त्यहाँका प्रयोगशाला र उपकरण ४ दशक पुराना छन्। यस्तो जीर्ण प्रयोगशालामा प्रयोगात्मक ज्ञान दिएर एक्काइसौं शताब्दीको अनुसन्धान सम्भव छ? त्यसैले विज्ञानका विद्यार्थीले पनि मौलिक अनुसन्धानात्मक थेसिस उत्पादन गर्न सकेका छैनन्।

यसैगरी हाल नेपालमा शिक्षण संस्थामा आबद्ध नभएकाले पनि थेसिस गाइड गर्न र एक्सटर्नल बन्न पाउने परिपाटी छ। खासगरी सरकारी अधिकारीहरुको यसमा संलग्नता हुँदै आएको छ। यो परिपाटी अन्त गर्नुपर्छ। अर्थात् विद्यार्थीको थेसिस गाइड गर्ने अधिकार प्राध्यापनमा संलग्न व्यक्तिलाई मात्र दिइनुपर्छ। थेसिस लेखनमा सबैभन्दा ठूलो समस्या बौद्धिक चोरी नै हो। हुन त बौद्धिक चोरी नेपालको मात्र समस्या होइन तर अन्य देशले यो समस्या व्यवस्थापन गर्न धेरै प्रक्रिया अघि बढाइसकेका छन्। नेपालमा भने यसतर्फ सोचाइ नै छैन। यहाँ कतिले थेसिस किन्छन् र कतिले पहिलेको कपी गर्छन् भनेर छानविन गर्ने हो भने डरलाग्दो वास्तविकता भेटिन सक्छ। जहाँ विद्यार्थीहरु महिनौँसम्म एक अक्षर नै सुधार गर्दैनन् त्यहाँ थेसिसको गुणस्तरीयता कायम गर्नु त यसै पनि चुनौतीपूर्ण छँदैछ। यो चुनौती हल गर्न प्रत्येक विद्यार्थीले आफ्नो थेसिसको डिजिटल कपी लाइब्रेरीमा बुझाउने र लाइब्रेरीले उक्त कपी तुरुन्तै अनलाइमा राख्नुपर्छ। थेसिस बिक्रीमा भन्ने विज्ञापन गर्नेहरुलाइ शैक्षिक अपराधअन्तर्गत कार्बाही गर्नुपर्छ।

मुम्बई हमलाका दोषी याकुब मेमनलाई फाँसीको सजाय

सन् १९९३ मा भएको मुम्बई हमलामा दोषी ठहर भएका एक व्यक्तिलाई भारतको सर्वाेच्च अदालतले फासीको सजाय तोकेको छ । हमलामा दोषी ठहर भएको याकुब मेमनलाई भारतको सर्वाेच्च अदालतले फासीको सजाय दिएको हो । मेमनले गरेको पुनरावेदन खारेज गर्दै अदालतले उनको फासीको सजायलाई निरन्तरता दिएको हो । ममेनलाई सन् २०१३ मा टाडा कोर्टले फासीको सजाय सुनाएको थियो । यसको विरुद्ध मेमनले सर्वाेच्च अदालतमा पुनरावेदन अपिल गरेका थिए । तर सर्वाेच्चले भने मेमन बाहेक अन्य १० जना दोषीको फासीको सजाय जन्मकैदमा बदले पनि मेमनलाई भने फासीको सजाय नै तोकेको हो । सन् १९९३ को मार्चमा मुम्बईमा भएको १२ वटा श्रृङ्खलाबद्ध बम विस्फोटमा २ सय ५७ जनाको मृत्यु भएको थियो भने अन्य ७ सय जनाभन्दा बढी घाइते भएका थिए ।  श्रोत स् एजेन्सी

BFBS Gurkha Radio: for Nepalese all around the world

BFBS Gurkha Radio was started from Singapore in 1952 with the name of British Sainik Akashbani Singapore. The radio was started with 2 hours daily program in Singapore where majority of Gurkha forces were there. The credit goes to Ms. Leena Devraj, school teacher who started to run the radio. The radio used to broadcast phone in programs, request songs and Nepali messages through the source of Gorkhapatra. Gorkhapatra used to reach there from ship after many days though that was fresh news for them.

In 1970, British Forces shifted from Singapore to Hongkong. Radio also came to Hongkong as Hongkong was the territory of British at a time. Then the BFBS Gurkha radio established in Hongkong with initiation of ex-gurkha army Mr. Kishor Gurung. Programs were related to spiritual themes playing Nepali and Hindi vajan songs. Gradually, the civilians also started to enjoy radio. Transmission was very nice for coverage. Another branch of BFBS radio was in Brunei. Shelf-off system studio was there and still running this technology in BFBS studios. The live commentaries, sports, entertainment programs were on air at that time. RJs were the serving members, who were in service.

Retired Gurkha army Mr. KB Rai used to send Nepali news materials from Nepal through teleprinter. He was the key and first supporter for BFBS Nepali service. He used to send interview of artists, songs and news as soon as possible being Nepal representative. After some years he started to use fax also. He used to record in DAT system. Small office was inside British Camp. He sent through cassettes not in CD. Later on, as technology developed gradually, the news of 6 months came into two, two months news decreased into one and one into week, week into days and days into hour and now within a second.

In 1996, when British handover Hongkong to China, Hongkong BFBS closed in October 1996 as British Forces were not remained there anymore. Now, Brunei became the focus point for BFBS Gurkha Radio. Kishor Gurung returned back to Nepal and he got responsibility to support Brunei, collect material for Brunei and to help KB Rai. But immediately, BFBS Gurkha Radio office in Nepal established in 1997 around British Camp. BFBS Gurkha Radio in Nepal formed with wonderful team with Kishor Gurung, Rupa Rana, KB Rai and other retired armies and locals like Subas Pradhan, Asha Pun and other freelancers Suryakumari Panta, Sarajraj Gautam and Ramesh Paudyal. Their work was not to broadcast but record programs for Brunei in analog system. They used to record one hrs program daily for a week and used to send though they had to send news daily.

BFBS UK established in 2001 and on aired from 2002 by Khem Gurung who went from Brunei. In 2003, they succeeded to establish satellite and run the live programs in month of November. Then they started to on air lively to Brunei and UK. Thus, BFBS Gurkha Radio on aired together from UK, Brunei and Nepal. Kishor Gurung was manager of BFBS Gukha Radio Nepal, Khem Gurung from UK and Binod Khadka from Brunei. Khem Gurung was the senior manager of all stations as UK was the head station. The numbers of target audiences were in UK.

काठमाडौं । आदिवासी जनजाति चलचित्रको महत्व र बजार विस्तार विषयक देशव्यापी अन्तरक्रिया कार्यक्रम सफलतापूर्वक सम्पन्न भएको छ । बुटवल, पोखरा, रामेछाप, काठमाडौ र मोरङमा सम्पन्न अन्तरक्रिया कार्यक्रमलाई क्रमश मगर चलचित्र संघले बुटवलमा, गुरुङ फिल्म एसोसिएसन नेपालले पोखरामा, सुनुवार कलाकार तथा चलचित्रकर्मी समाजले रामेछापमा, नेपाल आदिवासी जनजाति चलचित्र महासंघले काठमाडौमा र लिम्बु चलचित्रकर्मी संघले मोरङमा आयोजनाको जिम्मा लिएको थियो । देशव्यापी अन्तरक्रिया कार्यक्रमको आवश्यकता किन भन्ने प्रश्नमा नेपाल आदिवासी जनजाति चलचित्र महासंघका अध्यक्ष अमृत सुनुवार बताउछन् की यसको प्रमुख उदेश्य भनेको आदिवासी जनजाति चलचित्रको बारेमा राज्य र सम्बन्धित समुदायको नेतृत्वलाई ध्यानाकर्षण गराउनु हो । संख्यात्मक हिसावले आदिवासी चलचित्रहरुको उल्लेख्य मात्रामा निर्माण भएपनि हाम्रो समुदायले चलचित्रको बजार नबुझेको अध्यक्ष सुनुवारको गुनासो छ । वास्तवमा आदिवासी चलचित्रले मुलुकको आर्थिक, सामाजिक र पर्यटकीय रुपमा ठूलो योगदान पुर्याएको तर यसको सही मुल्याङ्कन कतैबाट पनि नभएकोले यस्ता अन्तरक्रिया कार्यक्रमहरुको अपरिहार्यता भएको बताउछन् ।

यसैबीच गत आषाढ १९ गतेका दिन राजधानीमा सम्पन्न एक दिने अन्तरक्रिया कार्यक्रम ऐतिहासिक र फलदायी भएको विश्लेषकहरु बताउछन् । नेपाल आदिवासी जनजाति चलचित्र महासंघले आयोजना गरेको उक्त कार्यक्रममा सहभागीहरुको खचाखच भीडले चलचित्र विकास बोर्डको प्रेक्षालय हलमा अनौठो रौनक देखिन्थ्यो । कार्यक्रमको प्रमुख आतिथ्य सुचना तथा सञ्चारमन्त्री मिनेन्द्र रिजालले गरेका थिए । मन्त्री रिजालले आदिवासी चलचित्रकर्मीहरुको माग र छलफललाई सकारात्मक रुपमा लिदै जुनसुकै सहयोगको लागि पनि आफू तत्पर रहेको जनाउ दिएका थिए ।

कार्यक्रममा काठमाडाँै, तनहुँ, पोखरा, बुटवल, काभ्रे, नुवाकोट, धादिङ, रामेछाप, सुर्खेतलगायत ठाउँबाट चार सय बढी मातृ जातीय संगठनका प्रतितिधीहरु, पत्रकारहरु, नेपाल आदिवासी जनजाति महासंघका प्रतिनिधिहरु साथै चलचित्र विकास वोर्डका नवनियुक्त अध्यक्ष राजकुमार राई र अन्य सदस्यहरु समेतको उपस्थिती रहेको थियो । कार्यक्रममा निर्देशक नवीन सुब्बाले आदिवासी जनजाति चलचित्रको बजार विस्तार र महत्व विषयमा कार्यपत्र प्रस्तुत गरेका थिए । उनले विभिन्न देशका उदाहरणहरु समावेश गर्दै अव नेपालमा पनि राज्यले आदिवासी जनजाति चलचित्रलाई विशेष महत्वका साथ लिनुपर्ने कुरा कार्यपत्रमा उल्लेख गरेका थिए । यसै कार्यक्रमको अवसर पारेर नेपाल आदिवासी जनजाति चलचित्र महासंघले पचास जना आदिवासी जनजाति चलचित्र प्रशिक्षार्थीलाई प्रमाणपत्र पनि वितरण गरेको थियो । 

मातृसंस्था, जनजाति महासंघ, हलवाला, सरोकारवाला र चलचित्रकर्मीलाई लक्षित गरेर देशव्यापी आयोजना गरेको यस अन्तरक्रिया कार्यक्रमले उल्लेखनीय उपलब्धी हासिल गरेको आदिवासी जनजाति मातृभाषी चलचित्र प्रबद्र्धन समिति संयोजक तथा मगर चलचित्रकर्मी संघ अध्यक्ष युवराज मास्की बताउछन् । उनका अनुसार यस कार्यक्रमले सबैमा चेतना जगाउने काम गरेको छ भने मातृभाषी चलचित्र संस्थाहरुमा चलचित्रसंग सम्बन्धित विविध पक्षहरुमा बैचारिक बहस सुरु हुन थालेको छ ।

In Scientific writing, sound organizational structure is the key to clear, precise and logical communication.

While writing thesis, eliminate repetition and write in the active voice
… (ellipsis points) It shows, within a sentence to indicate that you have omitted material from the original senescences.....(4 ellipsis) it indicates omission between two or more sentences.

Research is complete only when the results are shared with the scientific community

Plagiarism: researchers do not claim the words and ideas of others as their own; they give credit where credit is due. Quotation marks should be used to indicate the exact words of another. Sometimes you can summarize and paraphrase another authors but they need to credit the source in the text.

While citing, omit all the titles (Dr., Prof.) and degrees (PhD, PsyD, Masters') and use only the final name

Citing Sources

Cite the works of those individuals whose ideas, theories or research have directly influence your work/thesis. Citation of an article implies that you have personally read the cited work. If not your work is full of plagiarism.

Direct quotation must be accurate. There should not be any correction in words, spelling, and interior punctuation of the original source, even if the source is incorrect (p. 172).

Direct Quotation of Sources

When quoting, always provide the author, year and specific page citation or paragraph number for non-paginated material in the text and include a complete reference in the reference list

If the quotation comprises fewer than 40 words, incorporate it into text and enclose the quotation with double quotation marks.

Example; “Physical appearance affects the environment and that environment affects the personality of an individual, therefore, people treat to the individual according to his appearance” (Aurther, 2008, p.38)

If the quotation comprises 40 or more words, display it in a free standing block of text and omit the quotation marks. Start such a block quotation on a new line and indent the block about a half inch from the left margin.

Regarding personality, Keirsey and Bates (1984) say that people are different in fundamental ways.

They want different things; they have different motives, purposes, aims, values, needs, drives,impulses, urges. Nothing is more fundamental than that. They believe differently: they think,cognize, conceptualize, perceive, understand,comprehend and cogitate differently. And, of course, manners of acting and emoting, governed as they are by wants and beliefs, follow suit and differ radically among people (Keirsey & Bates, 1984, p.2)

Direct quotations of online material without paginated

Credit direct quotations of online material by giving the author, year and page number in parenthesis. Where page number is not given, provide there paragraph number

Example; Basu and Jones (2007) went so far as to suggest the need for a new “intellectual framework in which to consider the nature and form of regulation in cyberspace” (para. 4).

One work by one author

Surname of the author (do not include suffixes such as Jr.) and the year of publication. Include page number if possible.

Example; “English Language Teaching (ELT) is not so easy in Nepal” (Bhattrai, 2003) or

Bhattrai (2003, p.10) says “English Language Teaching (ELT) is not so easy in Nepal”.

One work by two authors

Walker and Allen (2004) English Language Teaching (ELT) is not so easy in Nepal

“English Language Teaching (ELT) is not so easy in Nepal” (Walder & Allen, 2004)

One work by three authors

Bradley, Ramirez, and Soo (1999) say, “without any literature review, one can't write his/her thesis”  or

“without any literature review, one cant write his/her thesis” (Bradley, Ramirez,& Soo, 1999)

Subsequent citation in text:

Bradley et al. (2999)  or   (Bradley et al. 1999)

This rule works up to five authors

One work by six or more authors

Wasserstein et al. (2009) says, “all the cited sources must have reference list in the reference list”.      Or

“all the cited sources must have reference list in the reference list” (Wasserstein et al., 2009).

Group (readily identified through abbreviation) as authors

National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH, 2003)

In 2^nd time: NIMH (2003)      or

(National institute of Mental Health [NIMH], 2003)

In 2^nd time: (NIMH, 2003)

Authors with the same surname

If a reference list includes publications by two or more primary authors with the same surname, include the first authors' initials in all text citations even if the year of publication differs.

Example: Among studies, we review M. A. Light and Light (2008) and I. Light (2006) and found out that research plays vital role even in school level.

When a work has no identified author, cite in text the first few words of the reference list entry (usually the title) and the year. Use double quotation marks around the title of an article/ a chapter/ a web page.

Example: Being a professional teacher, you should not think about free education in tertiary level (“Being a professional teacher”, 2007).

When similar ideas are given by the two or more authors, at that time these different authors are better cited within the same parentheses in alphabetical order by the first author's surname.

Example: Children must be treated equally in the schools (Miller, 1999; Sharma & Karki, 1998; Tamrakar, 1999).

How to cite secondary sources??

Regmi (as cited in Khadka, 2003) says, we must recognize the value of others' culture.

How to cite the classical work/ translated works?

Cite the year of translation preceded by trans.,

Example: ................................. (Aristotle, trans. 1931)

How to cite personal communication

(Private letters, memos, electronic communication/ mail, message, personal interviews, telephone conversations....) they are not included in the reference list. Here, give the initials as well as the surname of the communicator, and provide as exact as date as possible.

Example: T. N. Sharma (personal communication, April 18, 2011)
