What is another name for the works cited section in a research paper?

The "Works Cited" section can also be called:

* References

* Bibliography

* List of Works Cited

* Literature Cited

The specific name used often depends on the citation style guide being followed (e.g., MLA, APA, Chicago).

It's important to note that while these terms may be used interchangeably, they might have slight differences in meaning depending on the context:

* Works Cited lists only the sources that are actually cited in the text.

* Bibliography can include sources that were consulted but not necessarily cited in the text.

* References is a more general term that encompasses both works cited and bibliography.

Always check the specific guidelines for your research paper or assignment to see what the preferred term is.
