Title: Can the perceived seriousness of the different types of plagiarism predict the
levels of plagiarism among HMEMS80 students?
Introduction:
Plagiarism is a serious concern in academic settings, and it involves presenting
someone else's work or ideas as one's own. Plagiarism can take different forms,
including copying and pasting text from the internet or other sources, paraphrasing
without proper citation, and submitting someone else's work as one's own. The
seriousness of plagiarism may vary depending on the type of plagiarism
committed. This research proposal aims to investigate whether the perceived
seriousness of different types of plagiarism can predict the levels of plagiarism
among HMEMS80 students. [Show Less]
