PLAGIARISM
Plagiarism is the act of quoting or borrowing from the work of others without adequately disclosing the source in the academic realm, and it is also called intellectual theft. A typical reason for plagiarism is that the writing is done in a dissertation or journal paper without the researcher really recognizing the serious problem of plagiarism. This shows that although researchers strive for originality, logic, and methodology in the process of writing academic papers, they tend to write without examining whether there are problems in terms of research ethics.
