Original Source Material:
Merck, in fact, epitomizes the ideological nature--the pragmatic idealism--of highly visionary companies. Our research showed that a fundamental element in the "ticking clock" of a visionary company is a core ideology--core values and a sense of purpose beyond just making money--that guides and inspires people throughout the organization and remains relatively fixed for long periods of time.

Student Version:
Research conducted by Collins and Porras (2002) highlights the importance of establishing and committing to an ideology comprised of two parts: (1) core values; (2) a core purpose. In my personal experience it seems easier to define a core ideology than to live it consistently.References:Collins, J. C., & Porras, J. I. (2002).

1. Which of the following is true for the Student Version above?
a. Word-for-Word plagiarism
b. Paraphrasing plagiarism
c. This is not plagiarism

Respuesta :

Answer: c. This is not plagiarism

Explanation: Plagiarism involves the use of a written work without giving credit to the original author.

If it is word-for-word plagiarism, the second author lifts more than 6 words in the same sequence from the original work. Paraphrasing plagiarism changes the words but copies the idea.

Here, the student has not plagiarized because, she attributed credit to the owner, put the author's idea in her own words and even concluded the paragraph with her own opinion.
