Citing an ISEF finalist's abstract from a previous year
Posted: Tue Feb 18, 2020 3:27 pm
Hello there,
If I wanted to cite another student's ISEF abstract from a previous year, could I do this? I am entering an ISEF affiliated fair, and my research project is similar to a few projects done by ISEF finalists in previous years. If I wanted to compare my results to theirs, how would I cite their abstract that appears on the ISEF project database in my reference section. The finalists' abstract is the only information I have about their study because their research is not published. Would I cite it as I would any other piece of information, or is citing another ISEF finalist's work not allowed? Thank you .
