The Extent and Causes of Academic Text Recycling or ‘Self-Plagiarism’

What is this about?

This study investigated the extent of problematic text recycling in order to obtain understanding of its occurrence in four research areas: biochemistry & molecular biology, economics, history and psychology. They also investigated some potential reasons and motives for authors to recycle their text, by testing current hypotheses in scholarly literature regarding the causes of text recycling[1]. This is a factual case.

  1. Horbach, SPJM Serge, and W. Willem Halffman. "The extent and causes of academic text recycling or ‘self-plagiarism’." Research Policy 48.2 (2019): 492-502.

Why is this important?

Among the various forms of academic misconduct, text recycling or ‘self-plagiarism’ holds a particularly contentious position as a new way to game the reward system of science[1].
