Grammar, Usage / Help me with my research presentation and not plagiarizing! [3]
Hello,
I have looked up what counts as plagiarizing and nowhere did I find if this is plagiarizing or not. I don't know if this is in the right forum because it is research, but not a paper, just a presentation. Please give a direct answer rather than explaining what plagiarizing is. I know what it is but I don't know if this counts. This is for a powerpoint presentation, not a paper, if that makes any difference. I have cut down the author's words, changed a few things, but kept a lot of their words (yes I know keeping their words is plagiarism, but since this is a presentation, maybe it's different?) I also gave them their due credit. So please let me know if this is ok or not. Thank you so much!
"Interestingly, adolescents who reported that social support was highly important to them but also reported that they did not perceive these supports as available to them demonstrated the highest levels of social anxiety."

likely contributing to increased anxiety in social situations."

is it a plagiarism?
