How many sources should I use in my essay?

Possibly the most frequently asked question when it comes to social science essay writing (certainly in first and second year courses) is how many sources should be used in an essay. This is a very legitimate question, especially if you don’t have much essay writing experience to start with. But the answer is not very straightforward. It depends. Rather than providing a fixed number, this blog post lays out what it depends on, and what kinds of parameters play a role in determining the number of readings.

The purpose of referencing

First, however, a short reflection on why you need to use references in the first place. Anchoring this discussion to its purpose will help you gain a deeper understanding of the issue, and the rest will make more sense. It is tempting to see this as a tick-box exercise of a specific number of readings you need to cover. But providing references goes deeper than that.

What distinguishes academic writing from other forms of writing is that indeed, it builds on what others have written before, and makes explicit reference to it. This is because social science is ever-evolving. When we write about social class today, we stand on the shoulders of giants , scholars like Marx, Weber, or more recently, Pierre Bourdieu. And those are only the big names. Hundreds of other authors have dedicated their scholarly lives to academic research, and added bits and pieces to an ever-evolving body of knowledge, be it on social class or any other topic we write about.

Providing references to their work pays tribute to this. It is a sign of respect for the work of others. But it also a way of showing your own awareness of the different debates and different perspectives in the field. And it is a way of showing where your position is. For example, if your analysis of class follows a Marxist tradition, this will show in the readings you use, as you will be drawing primarily on authors that have also followed this tradition (and probably some original Marx as well).

Rather than this being a tick-box exercise, then, referring to the work of others has a deeper meaning. It is about who you are, and where you see yourself, as a budding scholar. And you might not think of yourself as a budding scholar (yet?), but hey, we all have to start somewhere.

Parameter 1: Your ambition

And this brings us to the first parameter, your ambition. If all you want is write a reasonably well-informed essay that achieves a solid pass and a not unreasonable grade (a perfectly legitimate ambition. In our school this corresponds to a grade in the 50s range), fewer sources will do. You still need to demonstrate you have read, and are building on the literature, but there is less emphasis on integrating, for example, different perspectives. If, however, you want to demonstrate that you really know some stuff, and are aware of at least some of the different perspectives (in our school, a 60s essay), you will typically use a few more sources, integrate a few more perspectives, and a little more data and evidence. If you are aiming for those really high grade ranges (in our school, 70 and above), you want to show more of an ‘overview of the topic’, an awareness of a slightly bigger part of the body of knowledge that exists, which will result the use of additional sources, and an extended bibliography.

Okay, I know you want numbers. Here we go then. Let’s say this is a typical 1,500 to 2,000-word essay, first or second year, Social and Political Science at Edinburgh University (if you’re at another school or university this might be different. Even some individual courses might be different. Always check for local conditions): a typical 50s essay here will probably use four or five sources; in the 60s, it tends to be around five to ten, and typical 70s or above essays use probably somewhere between eight and 15 substantive sources. These are rough estimates, though. And importantly, these numbers are not deterministic. You could write a brilliant essay based on just five or six sources and still get that first. Or you could use 15 sources in your essay, but if your argument is off, or your writing is incomprehensible, or the sources aren’t very good, you might still only get a 50s grade.

Parameter 2: The kind of question

The second parameter to consider is the kind of question you are addressing. There are two main distinctions to make here: first, whether the question is mostly on a specific theory or on a topic. More theoretical questions tend to need fewer readings. For example, it could ask about a specific concept by a specific author, say Foucault’s concept of power/knowledge, or Mead’s idea of the Self. Rather than looking at several different viewpoints, this kind of essay question is asking you to engage in detail with only one author’s perspective. This means there is less importance on breadth of reading (expressed in a higher number of readings). However, this does not necessarily make things easier, as there is instead more emphasis on depth of reading. You need to engage thoroughly with that one text, more that you would otherwise. And even though the emphasis is on one author’s theory, depending on your ambition, you still want to consult additional literature, and see how other authors have interpreted and contextualised this particular theory.

If the essay question is on a specific topic, on the other hand, say globalisation, gender inequalities or social class, there is usually more of an emphasis on the breadth of reading, and of you demonstrating awareness of different perspectives and interpretations. This tends to result in a higher number of bibliography entries.

The second aspect of the ‘kind of question’ parameter you need to consider is how many dimensions the question has. In the above example, if the question is about one theorist, you will typically need fewer readings than if the question is asking you to compare theories, for example, compare Foucault’s notion of how power and knowledge are connected to what Marx and Engels wrote about the issue. Both might be 2,000 word essays, but the number of readings is likely to be twice as many if you add this comparison.

The same goes for topic questions. These, too, can involve several dimensions. A question that asks about the impact of globalisation on cultural practices in Japan is more likely to be focused on a selected number of core readings. If a similar question asks about the impact of globalisation on culture, the economy and politics in Japan, this multitude of dimensions will require additional readings for the additional dimensions.

Parameter 3: Quality of sources

Another parameter that determines the number of sources you need to use is the quality of your sources, and the kinds of sources you use. Once again, two distinctions are important here. First, there is a difference between core readings, and ones that are more peripheral. The core readings should indeed provide the core of your argument, and the basis for the essay to build on. They are usually provided in the course material, either as essay readings, or for the respective lectures or course units the essay builds on. The decisive point, however, and what defines these as core readings for the purpose of your essay, is that they touch on the core of what the essay is about. Peripheral readings are ones that provide examples, additional material, data and illustration. They help your essay branch out, and cover just that little bit more ground. The point, however, is that they are additional, and if push comes to shove, you could probably do without them. The core readings, in contrast, are indispensable.

This distinction is important for how you count your number of readings. Core readings count fully; peripheral readings, not quite so much. This can become a problem if your bibliography is overly weighted towards peripheral readings. If you have, say, ten readings in your bibliography, but only one or two are on the core of the topic, this will be insufficient, despite the relatively high number of readings. If we take the above example of the effects of globalisation on Japanese culture, if only one or two readings are on globalisation, and ten others on examples, this might leave the core a little hollow, and the discussion of globalisation in a more general sense might just not have sufficient substance. I have used the word ‘might’ here, because this does depend on the kinds of readings, and there is a chance that this bibliography actually does work. The important point is that this is something you need to pay attention to, and ultimately it is your judgment call.

The second distinction of the kinds of sources is between academic and non-academic sources. As a rule of thumb, you should be very careful about using non-academic sources in the first place. All of the above is written on the assumption that we are talking about academic (i.e. peer-reviewed) journal articles and books. Under certain circumstances, however, it is possible to use non-academic sources, such as news articles or blogposts, mostly to provide current examples and illustration of whatever you are writing about. If you do use such sources, however, they should never be seen as a replacement for academic sources. And when you count how many sources you have used, you should simply take these out of the equation. If you have used, say three academic sources and 15 non-academic sources, in the eyes of your marker (at least if I am that marker) you have only used three sources, plus some additional, peripheral, illustrative material. This is not to say that this additional material cannot also be very useful. But as discussed above, academic essay writing starts with an acknowledgment of what is already out there in terms of academic literature and research, and is based on the body of knowledge that has evolved over time on a specific topic, not on yesterday’s news.

Parameter 4: specific instructions

The last parameter to consider can throw the entire calculation over board. It is whether the essay question comes with specific instructions. Such instructions could be, for example, that an essay in social theory really only needs to engage with this one theory. This gives you permission to limit the number of readings. However, be careful here, as this can be a false friend. Reading additional secondary literature on the theory might actually help you understand it better.

Or you might be encouraged to use news articles to provide examples for your discussion. This can potentially lead to a much higher number of bibliography entries. But as discussed above, this should not replace academic literature, and the latter should always form the basis and core of your discussion.

These four parameters are what I think are the most relevant determinants for the number of readings you need to use in your essay. But maybe I missed something? What other considerations do you think are important? Or maybe you disagree with some claim made in this article? Do let me know in the comments below.

How Many References Do I Need?

One of the crucial aspects of writing an academic paper is the number and quality of references you include. References not only provide support for your arguments but also show that you have engaged with the existing body of knowledge on your topic. However, determining the right number of references for your academic paper can be tricky. Too few references might suggest that your research is not well-supported, while too many can overwhelm your paper with unnecessary citations.

In this article, we’ll explore how many references you should include in an academic paper, factors that influence the number of references, and tips for how to use references effectively.

Table of Contents

General Guidelines for the Number of References

There is no one-size-fits-all answer to how many references you should include in your academic paper. The appropriate number of references depends on several factors, including the type of paper you’re writing, the discipline you’re working within, and the scope of your research. However, there are some general guidelines that you can follow.

1. Research Papers

For standard research papers, the number of references often ranges between 20 and 50 . This range is typical for papers that are around 4,000 to 6,000 words . However, depending on the depth of your research and the complexity of the topic, you might require more or fewer references.

  • A 5,000-word research paper might include about 30-40 references.

2. Theses and Dissertations

Theses and dissertations are more comprehensive than standard research papers, and they often require a much larger number of references. Depending on the length and scope of your thesis or dissertation, you might include anywhere from 100 to 300 references or more.

  • A 60,000-word PhD dissertation might include 200-300 references, encompassing a wide range of primary and secondary sources.

3. Literature Reviews

Literature reviews generally require a higher number of references compared to other types of academic papers. This is because the purpose of a literature review is to summarize and analyze existing research on a specific topic. A literature review may include 40 to 100 references or more, depending on the breadth of the topic and the number of studies available.

  • A 10,000-word literature review might include 80-100 references, especially if the topic has been widely researched.

4. Shorter Essays

For shorter essays, such as those assigned in undergraduate courses (around 1,500 to 3,000 words ), you might need fewer references. In this case, 10 to 20 references is usually sufficient, depending on the topic and the level of analysis required.

  • A 2,000-word essay might include 12-15 references.

Factors That Influence the Number of References

The number of references you include in your academic paper can vary depending on several key factors:

1. Discipline

Different academic disciplines have different expectations when it comes to referencing. For example:

  • Humanities (e.g., literature, history, philosophy): Papers in the humanities often rely heavily on primary and secondary sources, and may include fewer references than papers in social or natural sciences.
  • Social Sciences (e.g., psychology, sociology, political science): Social science papers tend to use a larger number of references, especially when integrating various theories and empirical studies.
  • Natural Sciences (e.g., biology, chemistry, physics): Papers in the natural sciences typically require a significant number of references, particularly when reporting on empirical research or reviewing existing scientific literature.

2. Type of Paper

The type of paper you’re writing (e.g., research paper, thesis, review article, or essay) will greatly influence the number of references you need. As mentioned earlier, literature reviews will generally require more references than research papers, while shorter essays may require fewer.

3. Scope of Research

The breadth of your topic will also impact the number of references. If your topic covers a broad area, you may need more references to address different perspectives or aspects of the subject. Conversely, if your topic is narrowly focused, you may be able to justify using fewer references.

Example : A paper on “climate change” might require a large number of references due to the vast amount of research on the topic, while a paper on a specific aspect of climate change, such as “the impact of climate change on arctic fox populations,” might require fewer references because of its narrower focus.

4. Depth of Analysis

Papers that require a deep, critical analysis of a topic will often require more references than papers that are more descriptive or introductory. In-depth analysis typically involves comparing studies, discussing different viewpoints, and building a strong evidence-based argument, all of which require a robust reference list.

5. Instructions from Your Instructor or Journal

Always check the guidelines provided by your instructor or the journal where you plan to submit your paper. Some journals may have specific requirements regarding the number of references, and your instructor may provide recommendations based on the length of the assignment.

Quality vs. Quantity: A Delicate Balance

While it’s important to include an appropriate number of references, the quality of your references is more important than the sheer quantity. A paper with 50 references is not necessarily better than one with 30 references if many of those references are irrelevant or of poor quality.

Guidelines for Ensuring Quality:

  • Use Recent and Relevant Sources : Ensure that your references are up-to-date and directly related to your topic. In fields that are rapidly evolving (e.g., technology, medicine), using recent studies is particularly important.
  • Balance Primary and Secondary Sources : In research-heavy fields, primary sources (e.g., original studies, experiments) are often more valuable than secondary sources (e.g., reviews, opinion pieces). Ensure a good balance in your reference list.
  • Avoid Over-Referencing Common Knowledge : Not all statements need to be cited. Avoid over-referencing widely accepted facts or common knowledge within your field. Instead, focus on citing sources that provide critical evidence or support for your argument.

How to Use References Effectively

To ensure your references contribute meaningfully to your academic paper, follow these best practices:

1. Integrate References Smoothly

  • Integrate your references into the text in a way that supports your argument. Avoid simply listing citations at the end of a paragraph; instead, explain how the cited work relates to your point. Example : Rather than writing: Climate change impacts biodiversity (Smith, 2019; Jones, 2020; Taylor, 2021). Write: As Smith (2019) suggests, the rising temperatures due to climate change are disrupting ecosystems, leading to a decline in biodiversity. This view is supported by Jones (2020), who found that species in tropical regions are particularly vulnerable to these shifts.

2. Cite Multiple Sources When Appropriate

  • When making a broad claim or presenting widely accepted findings, it’s often appropriate to cite multiple sources to strengthen your argument. However, avoid citing too many sources for minor points—this can clutter your writing. Example : If multiple studies have shown that exercise improves mental health, you could write: Numerous studies have demonstrated the positive effects of regular exercise on mental health (Brown, 2018; Green, 2019; Miller, 2020).

3. Avoid Overloading Your Paper with References

  • While it’s important to support your arguments with citations, overloading your paper with too many references can be distracting. Focus on citing the most relevant studies that directly relate to your research.

There is no fixed number of references that guarantees a well-researched academic paper. The appropriate number depends on the type of paper, the depth of research, the academic discipline, and any specific guidelines provided by your instructor or journal.

In general:

  • Research papers typically include 20-50 references.
  • Theses and dissertations may require 100-300 references.
  • Literature reviews often include 40-100 references or more.
  • Shorter essays may only need 10-20 references.

Ultimately, the key is to strike a balance between quality and quantity —using enough references to support your arguments while ensuring that each reference is relevant, credible, and essential to your research.
