Submit
4. When the author is not named in the summary, the in-text citation comes at the end of the summary within parenthesis including author`s last name, and year of publication.

Explanation

When the author is not named in the summary, the in-text citation comes at the end of the summary within parenthesis including author's last name, and year of publication. This means that if the author's name is not mentioned in the summary, the citation should still be included at the end of the summary in parentheses, with the author's last name and the year of publication.

Submit
5. All quotations must include in-text citations.

Explanation

The given correct answer is "True". This means that the statement or question being asked is true and valid. Without any additional context or information, it is not possible to provide a specific explanation for why the answer is true. However, it is important to note that any further explanations or justifications for the answer would require more details about the specific question or statement being addressed.

Submit
6. In the case of summaries, in-text citations and references are not needed.

Explanation

The given answer is false because in the case of summaries, in-text citations and references are still needed. Summaries involve condensing information from a source while still providing credit to the original author. In-text citations are necessary to acknowledge the source of the summarized information, and references should be included at the end of the summary to provide a complete list of sources used.

Submit

10. Changing the words of an original passage is enough when paraphrasing.

Explanation

Paraphrasing involves more than just changing the words of an original passage. It requires rephrasing the ideas and concepts in a different way while maintaining the same meaning. Simply changing the words without altering the structure and meaning of the passage would not be sufficient for effective paraphrasing. Therefore, the statement that changing the words of an original passage is enough when paraphrasing is false.

Submit
11. References must go in an alphabetical order according to the title of the article.

Explanation

not-available-via-ai

Submit
12. A paraphrase and a summary must reflect the original author`s writing style.

Explanation

The correct answer is "False" because the statement is stating that a paraphrase and a summary must reflect the original author's writing style, which is incorrect. A paraphrase and a summary should capture the main ideas of the original text but do not need to reflect the author's writing style.

Submit
13. A quote is considered long quotation when it has more than 30 words.

Explanation

A quote is not considered a long quotation when it has more than 30 words.

Submit
14. Web pages use para. instead of p. to identify to position of the text in the article.

Explanation

Web pages commonly use "para." instead of "p." to identify the position of the text in an article. This is a common practice in HTML coding and is used to indicate the paragraph number or position within the document. The abbreviation "para." is often used to provide a clear and concise way of referencing specific paragraphs, making it easier for readers to navigate through the content.

Submit
15. A paraphrase is a condensed version of the ideas taken from a source that do not include detail.

Explanation

A paraphrase is not a condensed version of ideas taken from a source that do not include detail. In fact, a paraphrase is a restatement of someone else's ideas or information in one's own words, while still maintaining the original meaning. It involves rewording and rephrasing the original text, often with the goal of making it clearer or more concise. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

Submit
16. A paraphrase will be well done when all words or the original passage are changed and the original passage sentence structure is kept.

Explanation

A paraphrase is not considered well done when all the words of the original passage are changed but the sentence structure is kept the same.

Submit
17. A summary is the reestatement of ideas taken from a source that include details.

Explanation

A summary is a concise and condensed version of a text that captures the main ideas and key points, while omitting unnecessary details. It does not include the details from the source, but rather focuses on the main ideas. Therefore, the given statement is incorrect, and the correct answer is False.

Submit
18. Fill in the blank  (space /text box is provided at the end) Despite this evidence many violent offenders are still being assessed using professional judgement rather than by actuarial measures (Polaschek                              ). References Andrews, D. A., & Bonta, J. (2003). The psychology of criminal conduct (3rd ed.). Cincinnati, OH: Anderson Publishing. Blackburn, R. (1993). The psychology of criminal conduct: Theory, research and practice. Chichester: Wiley. Bonta, J., Law, M., & Hanson, K. (1998). The prediction of criminal and violent recidivism among mentally disordered offenders: A meta-analysis. Psychological Bulletin, 123, 123-142. Polaschek, D. L. L., & Reynolds, N. (2004). Assessment and treatment: Violent offenders. In C. R. Hollin (Ed.), The essential handbook of offender assessment and treatment (pp. 201-218). Chichester: Wiley. Webster, C. D., & Bailes, G. (2004). Assessing violence risk. In C. R. Hollin (Ed.), The essential handbook of offender assessment and treatment (pp. 1-13). Chichester: Wiley.

Explanation

The correct answer for this question is "D.L.L and Reynolds, N., 2004". This answer suggests that despite the evidence provided, many violent offenders are still being assessed using professional judgement rather than actuarial measures. The reference "D.L.L and Reynolds, 2004" likely provides further information or research supporting this claim.
