    J. Fiske, Understanding popular culture, trans. K. Sawicka, Jagiellonian University Press, Krakow 2010, p. 35.
  • In the case of collective work: title of the work, initials of the name and surname of the editor, place and year of publication:
    1 New audiovisual - a new paradigm of culture ?, E. Wilk, I. Kolasińska-Pasterczyk (ed.), Jagiellonian University Press, Krakow 2008.

 The titles of the works cited for the first time are given in full footnote, together with the name of the publication, the place and the year of issue. When citing the author's work again, we use the shortened text. Quoting the work from the previous footnote, we use the acronym "Tam". When immediately after the author's work, we quote another of his works, instead of the author's name we write: "Ten." The same principles of re-quotation apply to articles from magazines, collections, source publications, etc.

When quoting for the first time in foreign language - the title and bibliographic data (place of issue, volume, booklet, etc.) are given in the language of the publication.

15. Dates in text and footnotes in full text are digitally recorded using Roman numerals for months, eg 4 December, 1610. The word of the month is used when no annual date is given, eg 6 August. The terms year and age are shortened by the number, before the number we write in full tones, eg "in 1618", "in the eighteenth century" but "in 1943", "in the XX century". We do not use numbers for type descriptions: the 1930s, as is the case for the numbering of local and world wars (World War II).

GHOSTWRITING AND GUEST AUTHORSHIP

As "ghostwriting" are qualified cases in which someone has made a substantial contribution to publication, without revealing his participation as one of the authors, or without being mentioned in the acknowledgments enclosed to the publication. "Guest authorship" ("honorary authorship") are considered situations in which the authors contribution is insignificant, despite of declaration.

In order to prevent cases of scientific misconduct the Editorial Board introduced a procedure protecting against cases of "ghostwriting" and "guest authorship":

1. Authors are required to submit their publications with a declaration specifying contribution of individual authors to publications (with their affiliations and contributions, ie the information who is the author of concepts, principles, methods, etc. used in the publications). The main responsibility lies with the author submitting the publication (declaration template is available on the website of the Quarterly).

2. Authors are required to provide information about funding sources of the publication and contribution of research institutions, associations and other entities ("financial disclosure").

3. All detected cases of "ghostwriting" and "guest authorship" will be exposed, including notifying the appropriate entities (institutions employing the authors, science societies and associations, etc.).

4. All detected cases of scientific misconduct are documented.
