PLAGIARISM (ACADEMIC DISHONESTY)
Plagiarism

Plagiarism is the unauthorized use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author and the representation of them as one’s own original work. Within the academia, researcher is considered academic dishonest or academic fraud and offenders are subject to academic censure. Unlike cases of forgery, in which the authencity of the document is in question, plagiarism is concerned with the issue of false attribution [1].
