Another usage of quotation marks when trying to use stimulus words such as “overtime”, reproduce material from a test item or verbatim instructions, or around the title of a periodical article or book chapter, textual works, or quotation that include errors. When not to use quotation marks: to highlight a key term or phrase, refer to numeral as itself, and/or to hedge or downplay the meaning. If the presentation is 40-words or more a block quotation is used. If the presentation is 40 or less words quotation marks within the text.
