Abstract

Writing research reports is found to be challenging for students. One of the most encountered problem concerning student projects is providing citations. The present study is aimed at revealing citation misconceptions of Czech (n = 130) and Turkish (n = 250) university students. Students have misconceptions concerning providing citations. Thus it is not possible to attribute students’ plagiarism action only to intentional behaviour but unintentional as well. Students are more vulnerable to plagiarise in some plagiarism types while less in others. Cultural differences influence plagiarism types and degree of plagiarism risks.
