Who has read the policy on plagiarism? Unpacking students' understanding of plagiarism (2014, background): “Yet the evidence suggests that many students unintentionally plagiarise, and confuse plagiarism with behaviours that are defined as cheating or collusion (Ashworth, Bannister, and Thorne 1997; Barrett and Cox 2005; Gullifer and Tyson 2010).”
First‐year university science and engineering students’ understanding of plagiarism (2007, background): “Barrett and Cox (2005) found that students were much more accepting of collusion because this involved ‘learning’, whereas there was a perception that plagiarism did not.”
Academic dishonesty, ethical norms and learning (2009, background): “In a study aimed at comparing staff and student attitudes towards collusion and plagiarism, Barrett and Cox (2005) found little difference between the two groups.”
Plagiarism in second-language writing (2014, background): “Students’ understandings of plagiarism differ from those of staff, or from a received understanding of what is conventional and appropriate (Deckert 1993; Julliard 1994; Roig 1997; Barrett & Cox 2005; Blum 2010).”
