**How to Avoid Plagiarism:**
====**If you are using direct quotes (copying a sentence or a fragment of a sentence), you need to put direct quote around it and cite the author or title at the end of your sentence. This means that you cannot copy and paste information without giving direct credit to the author, that includes articles, websites and books. ** **"When it works, hypnosis can be surprisingly effective, taking a person from physical agony, for example, to a pain-free state in minutes". (Kanigel) **====

====**If you are taking information that you previously did not know from a source, but not directly quoting, you still must cite your source. Using a thesaurus to change a few words, still does not make the material your own, you must cite it.** **Under hypnosis, a person who is suffering from pain, will not display any physical discomfort. (Kanigel) **====

**When taking notes make sure that you distinguish information from your source and your own thoughts. **




**Directly Quoting Evidence:**

====Hypnosis is not to be considered a form of psychotherapy, nor a treatment capable of solving problems immediately or on its own. Problems and habits take time to get implanted in one's life, and it takes a considerable amount of time to remove them.====

==== The serum that puts the Dauntless into an alternate state is very similar to hypnosis, which allows individuals to face their own problems. ("Hypnosis") These fears must be overcome in the simulation in order for the members to get through this process. ====
