In the past twenty years, for almost every day of my life I’ve read academic writing. (No, I’m not trying to inspire pity). I read published papers, books, work in progress by colleagues, draft pieces by research students, submissions for conferences, grant proposals — the whole range.

Usually when citing published studies, we cite their main findings rather than random texts in introduction or literature review. Here, I present three ways of citing findings of Munim and Schramm (2018) while avoiding plagiarism. The higher the quality of port infrastructure of a country, the better is the logistics performance of that country (Munim and Schramm, 2018). Munim and
