Read the original passage below.
Doctors, whose first allegiance is supposed to be to their patients, have traditionally stood between drug company researchers and trusting consumers. Yet unless there is evidence of misconduct (the deliberate misrepresentation of something as fact by someone who knows it is not), it is very difficult to discover and virtually impossible to prove that a piece of biomedical research has been tainted by conflict of interest. No study is perfect, and problems arise in the labs of even the most conscientious and honest researchers. Although biomedical research incorporates rigorous scientific rules and is often critically scrutinized by peers, the information can nevertheless be warped—by ending a study because the results are disappointing; changing rules mid-study; not trying to publish negative results; publicizing preliminary results even with final and less positive results in hand; skimming over or even not acknowledging drawbacks; and, especially, casting the results in the best light or, as scientists say, buffing them (Crossen, 1994, pp. 166–167).
Next, read the following passage, which was written by a student who wants to use this source in a paper and is trying not to plagiarize. Assess the student’s work for plagiarism:
“Consumers must trust that the research that has gone into the manufacture of new drugs is safe. But it is hard to know if a conflict of interest between doctors, researchers, and the drug company stockholders has tainted the results. Biomedical researchers incorporate strict rules of science into their work, which is examined by peers. Yet the resulting information can be warped for five reasons: ending a study too soon, not publishing negative results, publishing results too early, skimming over or ignoring drawbacks, and ‘buffing’ the results by showing them in the best light” (Crossen, 1994, p. 167).
Submit a 1- to 2-page paper that includes the following:
An explanation of how to recognize plagiarism
An explanation, including a justification of your explanation, of the extent to which the student plagiarized the original source (first passage) in the above (second) passage
Two sentences from the passage you think are clear examples of plagiarism and an example of how to rephrase them in your own words or an example of a direct quote, which uses source material word for word, with proper use of quotation marks and a standard APA citation
A specific explanation of how to avoid plagiarism in your own writing
