Plagiarism

• is an act of claiming another’s work or copying a portion


of someone else’s writing. If copying another researcher’s
ideas cannot be avoided, proper citation must be done.
Self-Plagiarism

• is defined when the researchers reuse their own work or


data in a ‘new’ written product without letting the
readers know that the manuscript already appeared in
another literature.
Fabrication

academic exercise such as exam or “hiring” others to
complete your assignments (Simmons, 1999).
