Why do people
PLAGIARIZE?
 For Students:
• Fear of failure
• The desire for a good grade
• Overwhelmed with the
current workload
• They feel the teacher
doesn’t care, so why should
I?
Other Reasons:
(Not applicable to just students)
• Accidental (they forgot to cite
correctly, place quotation marks,
etc.)
• They didn’t know they were
plagiarizing (aka, not being familiar
with all the forms of plagiarism)
• They didn’t think anyone would
notice
• Time management issues
• Stressed

Citation and
Referencing
APA style 7th edition
When to Cite?
￮ According to APA 6th ed. (2010),
“cite the work of those individuals
whose ideas, theories, or research
have directly influenced your work”

of any of our assignments. It:

1. allows us to acknowledge our sources,

2. gives academic credibility to our work,

demonstrates our knowledge of a subject area,

3. prevents accusations of plagiarism
