Keep This In Mind While Writing Officer Untruthfulness Research Paper:

Plagiarism, the use of material not cited or not acknowledged or material deliberately copied or adapted in any way from an unacknowledged source. Plagiarism will not be tolerated and will result in a grade of "0" for the paper and/or the course. Any time more than 10 consecutive words are used from a single source, credit should be given to that source and the information should be contained in quotation marks using either the footnoting system at the bottom of a page, or the APA style where the last name of the author from the bibliography, the publication year and the page number should be listed in parenthesis. i.e.

If two or more continuous lines from a single source are used, they should be contained in quotation marks, indented and single-spaced.

For many years, management theorists have been trying to identify, define and proscribe various types of organizational behavior and management behaviors. Their theories have ranged far and wide, indicating the depth and breadth of the problem, but still no definitive solution has been found.

In the event that you are using your own words to paraphrase the idea of another, at the end of the referenced material, again list the author's name, the publication year and the page or pages.

As a general rule, anything mentioned in your paper, that is not "common knowledge" should be footnoted and referenced. i.e. "A recent study shows" should have a footnote.
