| May 16, 2022 at 15:04 | comment | added | N E Techno Tech Blog | I found that three citations per paragraph was excessive in the fields cited (social psychology & sociology & business psychology), given that the papers that I was citing often only had one to two citations per paragraph. I worked my way through it regardless, and it ended up being a very awkward paper given the guidelines. I'm not sure that she had thought through the guidelines well, honestly, and found no evidence in the papers of other students that they had been asked to perform the same work. I must have done something to irritate her, or something in my paper rubbed her the wrong way. | |
