TranslateAbstract
Student plagiarism of Internet materials has been shown to be problematic in middle/high schools.
Enhancing instructional design practices to minimize or avoid plagiarism is a critical issue for
educators. Better understanding of how students and teachers approach computer technology and
Internet plagiarism can provide a foundation for the exploration of instructional design practices in
secondary schools. Using a sample of secondary teachers, this mixed method action research study
utilized pretest/posttest questionnaires and teacher interviews to measure and explore teachers'
computer efficacy, knowledge of Internet plagiarism, and knowledge of students' attitudes about
Internet plagiarism. A treatment intervention (where students were asked to respond to scenarios
depicting ethical situations related to Internet plagiarism) was also used to gain insights into student
thinking. Computer self-efficacy was measured using Bunz's 2004 Computer-Email-Web Fluency
scale. Knowledge of Internet plagiarism was measured using an Internet plagiarism survey, and
views about student Internet plagiarism were measured using a modified version of Scanlon and
Neumann's 2002 survey and interviews. Results showed a high level of computer self-efficacy in the
sample population. No significant differences were noted in the pretest/posttest data of participants'
general knowledge of Internet plagiarism, their understanding of the degree to which their students
engage in Internet plagiarism, and in how participants characterize their students' attitudes about
Internet plagiarism. Interview data indicated that participants were cognizant of student
Internet plagiarism and recognized that utilizing instructional strategies designed to limit student
Internet plagiarism was critical to the instructional process. Participants expressed an understanding
of the crucial role teachers play in incorporating instructional design practices that inform students
about plagiarism, in general, and Internet plagiarism specifically. Teachers must analyze and
reevaluate their own instructional design practices to explore their role in the problem of student
Internet plagiarism. Providing teachers with professional development opportunities that explore
Internet plagiarism and examine best practices for instructional design to discourage and prevent
Internet plagiarism will help reduce the amount of Internet plagiarism occurring. Presented is a
professional development plan that highlights a comprehensive training program addressing the
relationship between instructional design and Internetplagiarism.

Abstract
TranslateAbstract

Although Chinese university students' perceptions of plagiarism have been extensively


investigated, those of their teachers have been surprisingly under-researched. This study sought
to address this gap by investigating 112 Chinese university English teachers' knowledge of and
attitudes towards plagiarism. While 57 participating teachers had overseas academic experience,
the remaining ones received all their education in mainland China. They completed a perceptions
of plagiarism survey that elicited their knowledge of several common forms
of plagiarism in Anglo-American academia, perceptions of various possible causes of plagiarism,
and attitudes towards plagiarism induced by different causes and plagiarism in general. The
study found that the teachers reported varying knowledge of different types of transgressive
textual practices, variegated perceptions of the different causes of plagiarism, but clearly punitive
attitudes towards plagiarism. It also revealed significant differences between teachers with and
without overseasacademic experience in knowledge of and stances on plagiarism. These findings
highlight the complexity of plagiarism as an intertextual phenomenon and point to the important
role of cultural practices and academic socialisation in shaping perceptions of it.

Abstract
TranslateAbstract
Purpose - This paper seeks to explore the relationship between entrepreneurship students' ethical
views on plagiarism, their self reported engagement in plagiarism and their participation in an
online plagiarism prevention tutorial. Design/methodology/approach - The study is based on a
questionnaire administered to 434 undergraduate university entrepreneurship students,
combining self-reported data with behavioural measures. Findings - The results illustrate that
more than one online plagiarism prevention tutorial is required to change self-reported views
relating to engagement in plagiarism, perception of peer participation in plagiarism and students'
ethical views. However, it should be noted that even such a small intervention demonstrates an
observable difference in students' capacity to recognise a case of verbatim plagiarism as
an academic breach in practice. Research limitations/implications - The research demonstrates
that educators should focus on good educational design, educating students
regarding plagiarismprevention while making use of technology enhanced learning, instead of
considering e-learning choices as a quick solution toplagiarism. Originality/value - The paper
focuses on an emerging aspect of plagiarism education, that is, the use of technology enhanced
learning. While acknowledging the potential of technology enhanced learning
in plagiarism prevention the paper notes thatplagiarism prevention should be embedded in the
curriculum rather than addressed in an ad-hoc manner.

Abstract
TranslateAbstract

Plagiarism strikes at the heart of academe, eroding the fundamental value of academic research.
Recent evidence suggests that acts of plagiarism and awareness of these acts are on the rise in
academia. To address this issue, a vein of research has emerged in recent years
exploring plagiarism as an area of academic inquiry. In this new academic subject, case studies
and analysis have been one of the most influential methodologies employed. Case studies
provide a venue where acts of plagiarism can be discussed and analyzed in a constructive
manner, and that is the primary purpose of this article. Unlike previous studies, however, we
focus on the role of the publisher, a key player in dealing with acts of plagiarism, but one who
has received little attention in the academic literature. Specifically, we examine how
an academic publisher addressed allegations of plagiarism and how the publisher's decision-
making affected the outcome. We analyze the case by applying the guidelines from different
frameworks and ethical theory and develop recommendations from the lessons evidenced, the
second main objective of our article. This analysis advances the dialog onacademic plagiarism by
exploring the role of the publisher from a deontological perspective of ethical
absolutism.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]

Purpose - This paper aims to focus on plagiarism and the consequences of anti-
plagiarism services such as Turnitin.com, iThenticate, and PlagiarismDetect.com in detecting the
most recent cheatings in academic and other writings. Design/methodology/approach - The most
important approach is plagiarism prevention and finding proper solutions for detecting more
complex kinds of plagiarismthrough natural language processing and artificial intelligence self-
learning techniques. Findings - The research shows that most of the anti-plagiarism services can
be cracked through different methods and artificial intelligence techniques can help to improve
the performance of the detection procedure. Research limitations/implications - Accessing entire
data and plagiarism algorithms is not possible completely, so comparing is just based on the
outputs from detection services. They may produce different results on the same inputs. Practical
implications - Academic papers and web pages are increasing over time, and it is very difficult to
capture and compare documents with all available data on the network in an up to date manner.
Originality/value - As many students and researchers use the plagiarism techniques (e.g. PDF
locking, ghost-writers, dot replacement, online translators, previous works, fake bibliography) to
cheat in academic writing, this paper is intended to prevent plagiarism and find suitable solutions
for detecting more complex kinds of plagiarism. This should also be of grave concern to teachers
and librarians to provide up to date/standard anti-plagiarism services. The paper proposes some
new solutions to overcome these problems and to create more resilient and intelligent future
systems.

Abstract

The problem. Through observation and the review of literature, students often receive
inconsistent and vague messages aboutplagiarism from faculty. Marcoux (2002) and Roig (2001)
found a lack of consensus between faculty concerning definitions and forms of plagiarism.
Although some students develop skills in order to avoid plagiarism, almost half of the students
tested in two private colleges in the New York metropolitan area were unable to
identify plagiarism in passages, due to misunderstandings concerningplagiarism and correct
paraphrasing (Roig, 1997).

Despite having university policies on plagiarism, many faculties applied and interpreted policies
inconsistently. To assess the issue ofplagiarism, it is important to understand faculty and
students' perceptions of the problem.

Method. The hypothesis of the study is that there is a significant difference between faculty and
students' perception of plagiarism. To determine whether there is a difference between the age
and gender groups, a population of undergraduate students and faculty from Alliant International
University, California International Business University, College of the Sequoias, and Shawnee
Community College were surveyed.
Results. While several sub-categories of this study showed no significant differences in their
perception of plagiarism, overall, there were significant differences in perception between male
and female faculty, undergraduate students under 20 years old, and faculty and students in the
perceived seriousness of plagiarism. Because university policies influence university practices,
the lack of agreement between faculty and students suggests that university policy may not
provide sufficient penalties based on the perception of the plagiaristic infraction. This is
perceived as a serious problem in academia.

Abstract
TranslateAbstract
Plagiarism has engendered increasing concern in academia in the past few decades. While previous
studies have investigated studentplagiarism from various perspectives, how plagiarism is understood
and responded to by university teachers, especially those in English-as-a-foreign-language (EFL)
writing contexts, has been under-researched. As academic insiders and educators of
futureacademics, university teachers play a key role in educating students against plagiarism and
upholding academic integrity. Their knowledge of and attitudes toward plagiarism not only have a
crucial influence on their students' perceptions of plagiarism but can also provide insights into how
institutions of higher education are tackling the problem. The study reported in this paper aims to
address this imbalance in research on plagiarism by focusing on a sample of 108 teachers from 38
Chinese universities. Drawing on both quantitative and qualitative data that comprise textual
judgments and writing samples, it examines whether EFL teachers in Chinese universities
share Anglo-American conceptions of plagiarism, what stance they take on detected cases
of plagiarism, and what factors may have influenced their perceptions. Findings from this study
problematize the popular, yet over-simplistic, view that Chinese EFL writers are tolerant
of plagiarism and point to academic and teaching experience as influences on their perceptions and
attitudes concerning plagiarism.

Abstract
TranslateAbstract

This purpose of this qualitative study was to gather detailed information about student
perceptions of self-plagiarism and the perceived effectiveness of a brief self-plagiarism video
tutorial. Semi-structured interviews (n = 7) were conducted and health sciences doctoral students
were queried regarding their knowledge and perceptions of self- plagiarism. The population for
this study was new doctoral students, as well as students who had committed self-
plagiarism during the semester. Overall, participants reported a specific self-
plagiarism intervention was more helpful in preventing self- plagiarism than a
traditional plagiarism intervention and that the intervention should be included in initial program
orientation. Overwhelmingly, students did not believe self- plagiarism was a
serious academic offense and think they own their intellectual property and unpublished works.

The study investigated the relationship between understanding and prevalence of plagiarism,
perceived seriousness and prevalence ofplagiarism as well as understanding and perceived
seriousness of plagiarism when college freshman students of De La Salle Lipa, Philippines were
grouped according to academic disciplines. It was hypothesized in the study that as level of
understanding and perceived seriousness of plagiarism increased the tendency to commit it
decreased. An adopted self-report questionnaire which contained six scenarios covering the six
different types of plagiarism was answered by the respondents. Though with low and negligible
correlation, study revealed some trends on relationship between the students' understanding
of plagiarism and its degree of seriousness as well as on students' understanding of plagiarism and
frequency of its occurrence. Results of the study may be useful for enhancing
current academic practices and for revisiting institutional policy on plagiarism.

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to describe how plagiarism and the detection
of plagiarism are interwoven with the education of international students.
Design/methodology/approach - The literature searches encompassed articles on the issue
of plagiarism as it affects students coming from abroad. Findings - There is a definite problem
involved in the interaction of international students in a higher education setting and plagiarism.
Research limitations/implications - Although no survey was done for this article, much of the
information gathered regarding plagiarism is dependent on external surveys. These surveys may
not always be answered truthfully despite anonymity. There is also a dearth of data
on plagiarism and international students. There is some anecdotal data on the subject. Practical
implications - Although plagiarism is a serious problem on academic campuses, libraries and
librarians can offer substantial help in deterring and preventing plagiarism especially with regard
to international students. Originality/value - Librarians, knowledgeable about citation style sheets
and formats, can be very valuable to international students who lack the skills. Students can learn
to improve their citation skills with the help of a librarian with good bibliographic skills.

Abstract
TranslateAbstract

Plagiarism is a broad and multidisciplinary field of study, and within second-language (L2)
writing, research on the topic goes back to the mid-1980s. In this review article we first discuss
the received view of plagiarism as a transgressive act and alternative understandings which have
been presented in the L1 and L2 writing literature. We then survey and identify salient themes in
the growing body of work relating to plagiarism, primarily from an L2 writing/applied linguistic
perspective. These themes include terminological distinctions; views of the role of
textual plagiarism in language learning and a writer's development; a concern with students' and
teachers' sometimes differing understanding of plagiarism; and disciplinary differences in
perceptions of plagiarism. We review research into the role of the electronic media in changing
orientations toward plagiarism, the potential role of culture as a cause of plagiarism in the work
of L2 writers, and pedagogical approaches to guiding students away from plagiarism.
Methodological issues in researching plagiarism are surveyed, and the article concludes by
suggesting directions for future research. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]

Abstract
TranslateAbstract

Self-plagiarism, textual recycling and redundancy seemed to be controversial and unethical;


however some questions about its definition are still open. The objective in this paper presented
study was to use bibliometric analysis to synthesise and visualize the research literature
production and derive a typology of self-plagiarism research. Five topics emerged: Self-
plagiarism, Institutional self-plagiarism, Self-plagiarism and ICT, Self-
plagiarism in academic writing, Self-plagiarism in science. The state of the art topics seem to be
"social medium", "virtual world", "face book", "sociomateriality", "knowledge sharing", "open
access", "institutional repository", "retraction" and "responsible conduct".

Purpose - The paper aims to discuss the ways in which librarians of different types are
addressing the issue of plagiarism at the institutional and pedagogical levels.
Design/methodology/approach - A 25-question non-quantitative online survey was conducted
regarding: the institutional role of librarians in plagiarism prevention; the collaborations among
librarians and instructors in helping students understand what plagiarism is and how to avoid it;
and the interactions among librarians and students involved in combatingplagiarism. Findings -
More than 90 percent of the 610 respondents report that they have assisted students with citing
sources. Over 70 percent have instructed students about plagiarism in class. Approximately a
quarter have collaborated with other departments regarding plagiarism, conducted or attended
workshops on plagiarism, worked with instructors to redesign assignments, or helped faculty
with tracking possible instances of student plagiarism. Research limitations/implications - This
paper reports on a survey which is not statistically valid. The results of this survey, however, can
shed light on the librarian's role to date in combating plagiarismand suggest future directions.
Practical implications - This survey reports what librarians are doing to address plagiarism at all
levels, and it reflects what is being practiced in the field. Originality/value - While many
librarians have written about plagiarism strategies, this national survey focuses on the work of
librarians at the institutional and pedagogical levels.

TranslateAbstract
Purpose - The worst scandals of the world's top companies have turned the attention of
researchers towards the function of academicinstitutions in ethical training of future business
leaders because the issue of dishonest behaviour of students becomes very severe, when they
exercise the same practice at their place of work. Therefore, the understanding of the factors that
affect student's decisions to engage in academic dishonesty is important
for academic institutions, in order to reduce its occurrence. The purpose of this paper is to
investigate the influence of individual factors, situational factors and ethical factors
on academic dishonesty behaviour of students in Pakistan. Design/methodology/approach - A
questionnaire-based field survey was conducted with 500 students across four universities in
Pakistan. Findings - It has been found that individual, situational and ethical factors affect on
rationalisation ofacademic dishonesty and this rationalisation shapes actual conduct
of academic dishonesty. Moreover, lack of well-defined policies of the academic dishonesty in
higher education is a major determinant of academic dishonesty among students. Practical
implications - The results provide a strong implication for academics. By discouraging such
behaviour, academic institutions can help ensure the integrity of the degrees they offer, and help
to level the fair grade competition among students. Originality/value - The research provides a
profound investigation of individual, situational and ethical factors as predictors of
students' academicdishonesty. The study is pioneering in its nature to explore two common
forms of academic dishonesty, i.e. plagiarism and dual submission among university students.
Furthermore, the study used rationalisation of academic dishonesty as a determinant of the actual
act of academic dishonesty.

Abstract
TranslateAbstract
This dissertation is a longitudinal (four year) applied research investigation of academic integrity
at Ohio University that begins shortly before allegations of plagiarized masters' theses became
widely publicized and chronicles our efforts across the university to curb academic dishonesty
and develop a culture of academic integrity. This project utilized surveys, focus groups,
interviews, archival evidence, and ethnographic experience from my time spent working with the
Russ College as the Academic Integrity Advisor and on the OU Academic Integrity Committee.

Drawing on the work of dialogic, pragmatic, and critical theorists, my primary concern through
this project was to understand howacademic integrity (and deviations from it) are
communicatively constructed and enacted.

The findings of this study are organized around a series of practical and theoretical research
questions. The findings show thatacademic dishonesty is thought of as being comprised of four
dimensions or types: Academic Misconduct, Copying Sentences, Library Misconduct, and
Collaboration. There are significant differences among undergraduate students, graduate
students, and faculty in the perceived seriousness each types of academic dishonesty and changes
in perceived seriousness over time. Qualitatively-derived understandings showed differences in
the way that academic integrity is defined and that academic integrity is conceptualized much
more complexly than described in previous research. Self-reported engagement
in academic dishonesty dropped sharply during the second year, but subsequently increased.

While situational factors seem to contribute most directly to decisions to engage


in academic dishonesty, classroom and institutional factors influence situational contexts.
Situational factors include time pressure, cost-benefit analysis, and knowledge. Classroom
factors include course size, perceived course relevance, course difficulty, assignment type, and
perceived instructor caring. Institutional factors include institutional priorities, resources, stories
with in the institution, and culture.

I conclude by arguing that students, faculty, and academic institutions have a shared
responsibility to enact academic integrity, which should begin with a pursuit of learning and
development. Academic integrity is a socially constructed, evolving construct and that the ways
that we define and enact academic integrity have ethical and practical consequences, particularly
with regard to the potential collective intellectual capital that society will have to solve real
problems.

Plagiarism is a prevalent form of academic dishonesty in the undergraduate instructional context.
Although students engage inplagiarism with some frequency, instructors often do little to help
students understand the significance of plagiarism or to create assignments that reduce its
likelihood. This study reports survey, coding, and TurnItIn software results from an evaluation of an
instructional activity designed to help students improve their understanding of plagiarism, the
consequences of plagiarizing, strategies to help them engage in ethical writing, and key citation
elements. Results indicate students had a greater understanding ofplagiarism, increased efficacy,
and fewer instances of plagiarism as determined by TurnItIn plagiarism software after exposure to
an instructional activity on plagiarism. Not surprisingly, when instructors prioritize academic honesty
in their classrooms, train students on how to integrate others' works, cite sources appropriately, and
use plagiarism detection software, students are less likely to plagiarize. The discussion includes
suggestions for instructors to help them create a plagiarism-free environment.

Abstract

This was a multiple case study of all the 12th grade English teachers in one West Virginia county
school system. Qualitative data collection methods involving teacher interviews and analysis of
classroom handouts were utilized to reveal how they addressplagiarism. Demographic statistics
about the communities and schools was examined to enable comparisons between the schools
and the participants. The research questions guiding this study were: (a) What are secondary
English teachers perspectives onplagiarism, and (b) What are secondary English teachers'
practices on plagiarism. Data were collected and analyzed for any patterns, extremes, or
relevancy to the related literature. Then significant quotes were copied and pasted from interview
transcripts into tables containing plagiarism related topics. Document data were also coded and
examined for a relationship to interview data. Data revealed that English teachers of students in
advanced classes and students in schools with a higher socioeconomic status felt their students
plagiarized less and for more honorable reasons than did teachers of students in regular education
classes located in more rural, less well-off communities. The data revealed English teachers
spent a great deal of time, most of one grading period, six or seven weeks, for instruction of the
research project. Data indicated most English teachers enforced either an oral or written policy
on plagiarismthat usually includes a grade cut as the sole consequence. The opportunities for
students to plagiarize and for teachers to detectplagiarism continued to evolve as their use of
technology evolved. English teachers can help prevent plagiarism by insuring their instruction on
research and writing is meaningful and comprehended by their students. All English teachers can
help preventplagiarism in any instance by having a communicated policy to deal with instances
of plagiarism that involves discipline beyond simply the expected grade cut.
