Citing Primary Sources Referenced in the Handbook

Best Practice: Cite the Original Source

When the handbook discusses or summarizes research from other sources (journal articles, reports, datasets), always cite the original source rather than citing the handbook as a secondary reference.

Why?

  • Gives proper credit to the original researchers
  • Provides readers with the primary source for verification
  • Maintains academic integrity and rigor
  • Follows scholarly citation standards

Example

Incorrect: > According to Tegomoh (2025), MYCIN was an expert system that performed as well as infectious disease specialists.

Correct: > MYCIN, an expert system for diagnosing bacterial infections, performed as well as infectious disease specialists in controlled evaluations (Shortliffe et al., 1975).

Each chapter includes a “Further Reading” section with full citations of key papers and resources.
