What is the format of references in literature review?

References are continuously coded with Arabic numerals in the order in which they appear in the text, and the serial numbers are placed in square brackets. If the file is referenced repeatedly, it is marked with the same serial number in the text.

The page number (or page number range) of the cited document is listed in the reference. The format is "publication year" of the work or "year, volume (issue)"+":page number" of the periodical.

For documents cited many times, list the page number or page number range of each place in the serial number of each reference (some publications also regard the information that can indicate the location of the cited documents as page numbers).

Matters needing attention

1, the collection of documents should be as comprehensive as possible, and mastering a large number of comprehensive documents is the premise of writing a good summary, otherwise it is impossible to write a good summary by collecting a little information casually.

2. Pay attention to the representativeness, reliability and scientificity of the cited documents. In the collected documents, there may be similarities in views, and some documents are different in reliability and science. Therefore, when quoting literature, we should pay attention to choosing the literature which is representative, reliable and scientific.

3. The cited documents should be faithful to the contents of the documents. Since the literature review has the author's own comments and analysis, it is necessary to distinguish the author's views from the contents of the literature when writing, and not to tamper with the contents of the literature. Literature review writers sometimes see the phenomenon of quoting indirect literature.
