2. Types of Plagiarism
• Full plagiarism
• Unintentional plagiarism
• Partial plagiarism
• Minimalistic plagiarism
• Self-plagiarism
3. “The Copy Machine”
- Sources not cited
• The author submits an assignment copied word
for word from a source different from his or her
own
Image from Google Images
4. "The Phantom Writer”
- Sources not cited
• The author uses some of his or her own words in
his or her submission, but substantial parts are
taken without modification from a single source
5. "The Frankenstein Paper"
- Sources not cited
• The author tries to pass off a work as his or her
own that has been stitched together from various
sources with a few words being altered here and
there to try to disguise the original phrasing.
6. "Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing"
- Sources not cited
• The author tries to cover
his or her lifting of the
essential content of a
source by minimally
altering key words and
phrases.
7. "The Lazy Man’s Prerogative"
- Sources not cited
• The author meticulously changes all phrases and
words from one source into his or her own but
neglects to cite the source.
8. "The Double-Dipper"
- Sources not cited
• This author reuses large amounts of work
previously drafted by himself or herself. This
violates originality expectations inherent to most
academic institutions.
9. "The Missing Link"
- Sources cited (but still plagiarized)
• With this example of plagiarism, the author notes a
source but does not include a specific in-text
citation that leads to a reference citation that
denotes the exact bibliographic information from
the text. Therefore, the link between the in-text
citation reference and reference page reference is
broken.
10. "The Scrambler”
- Sources cited (but still plagiarized)
• The author scrambles information so that
inaccurate information regarding the sources is
noted. This makes the source impossible to find
and accuracy cannot be determined.
11. "Para-Masquerade” - Sources cited
(but still plagiarized)
• With this example of plagiarism, the writer
inserts a direct quote but tries to pass it off as a
paraphrase because he or she did not put the
direct quote in quotation marks but DID supply
an in-text citation.
12. “The Originality MIA Factor"
- Sources cited (but still plagiarized)
• With this type of plagiarism, the writer accurately
cites all paraphrases and gives credit where it is due,
but the author neglected the requirement of
submitting original work. Remember that all
paraphrases should be based on excerpts from
expert sources, not the entire source. Paraphrases,
after being accurately cited, should also be
accompanied by the writer’s personal analysis of the
paraphrase.
13. "The Pass-Off"
- Sources cited (but still plagiarized)
• In this situation of
plagiarism, large sections
of the author’s work are
original but interspersed
within the original are
sections of un-cited
paraphrases. In this way,
the paraphrased material
is passed off as the
writer’s own.
