FAQs
Can you correct the plagiarism to reduce similarity index? Do you help rewrite and paraphrase the plagiarised texts and sentences?
As part of our Plagiarism Check service, we assist in identifying sentences that contain potential instances of plagiarism and offer guidance on measures to reduce the similarity index. However, all revisions must be carried out by the author. Please note that we do not provide rewriting or paraphrasing support for plagiarised content.
What is the deliverable I receive?
If you opt for our plagiarism check service, you will receive the Paperpal or Grammarly report for plagiarism and a report compiled by our experts that can help you address areas of concern.
Is there post-service support?
This is a one-time optional service, and post-service support is not provided for the Plagiarism Check. However, if a high risk of plagiarism is identified in the initial assessment, a second round of plagiarism checking will be conducted at no additional cost upon receipt of the revised manuscript.
What kind of comments can I expect from the expert?
You will receive expert feedback to help you understand the Similarity Index score and take appropriate corrective action. These comments include clear guidance on interpreting the Similarity Index, along with specific suggestions to enhance the originality and overall quality of your manuscript.
What are the most common types of plagiarism?
Citation-based plagiarism: Occurs when incorrect or non-existent sources are cited, or when a secondary source is used but only the primary source is cited, misrepresenting the origin of the information.
Misleading data: Involves the fabrication or falsification of data to support research findings. This is a grave form of misconduct, particularly in clinical research, where it may lead to incorrect medical conclusions.
Failure to use quotation marks: Arises when text is borrowed verbatim from another source without the appropriate use of quotation marks and proper attribution.
Self-plagiarism: Involves the reuse of one’s own previously published content without appropriate citation, and is more common than often assumed.
Paraphrasing plagiarism: The most frequent form, where content is rewritten with minor changes but without adequate credit to the original source. Even well-intentioned paraphrasing can be problematic if proper citation is omitted.
Patchwork plagiarism: A complex and often harder-to-detect form that entails blending content from various sources into one’s own writing. This is generally viewed as a deliberate act of plagiarism.
Accidental plagiarism: Occurs unintentionally due to oversight, poor time management, or an incomplete understanding of citation practices. It is particularly prevalent among newer authors unfamiliar with publication standards.
How can duplication be avoided in an assignment?
Inadvertent plagiarism can affect not only early-career researchers but also experienced scholars with numerous publications to their name. One of the most effective ways to prevent plagiarism in any form is through careful reading and critical evaluation of one’s manuscript. Maintaining detailed records of all sources consulted is essential for accurately tracking information and ensuring proper attribution. Any content reproduced verbatim from another source must be enclosed in quotation marks and appropriately cited. Furthermore, if you intend to reuse material from your own previously published work, it is equally important to cite it correctly. Rigorous attention to these practices helps uphold academic integrity and ensures your work meets the highest standards of scholarly publication.
