    PLAGIARISM AND FORMS OF PLAGIARISM

    Plagiarism is the representation of another author's language, thoughts, ideas, or


    expressions as one's own original work.

    Plagiarism is considered academic dishonesty and a breach of journalistic ethics. It is


    subject to sanctions such as penalties, suspension, expulsion from school or
    work, substantial fines and even incarceration. Recently, cases of "extreme plagiarism" have
    been identified in academia. The modern concept of plagiarism as immoral and originality as
    an ideal emerged in Europe in the 18th century, particularly with the Romantic movement.

    Plagiarism is not in itself a crime, but like counterfeiting fraud can be punished in


    a court[10][11] for prejudices caused by copyright infringement, violation of moral
    rights, or torts. In academia and industry, it is a serious ethical offense. Plagiarism and
    copyright infringement overlap to a considerable extent, but they are not equivalent
    concepts, and many types of plagiarism do not constitute copyright infringement, which is
    defined by copyright law and may be adjudicated by courts.

    Plagiarism might not be the same in all countries. Some countries like India and
    Poland consider plagiarism to be a crime, and there have been cases of people being
    imprisoned for plagiarizing. In other instances plagiarism might be the complete opposite of
    "academic dishonesty," in fact some counties find the act of plagiarizing a professional's
    work flattering. Students who move to the United States from countries where plagiarism is
    not frowned upon often find the transition difficult.

    Forms of plagiarism
    Different classifications of academic plagiarism forms have been proposed. Many
    classifications follow a behavioral approach, i.e., they seek to classify the actions undertaken
    by plagiarists.

    For example, a 2015 survey of teachers and professors by Turnitin,[45] identified 10 main


    forms of plagiarism that students commit:

    1. Submitting someone's work as their own.


    2. Taking passages from their own previous work without adding citations (self-
    plagiarism).
    3. Re-writing someone's work without properly citing sources.
    4. Using quotations but not citing the source.
    5. Interweaving various sources together in the work without citing.
    6. Citing some, but not all, passages that should be cited.
    7. Melding together cited and uncited sections of the piece.
    8. Providing proper citations, but failing to change the structure and wording of the
    borrowed ideas enough (close paraphrasing).
    9. Inaccurately citing a source.
    10.Relying too heavily on other people's work, failing to bring original thought into the
    text.
