Item 1
Drawing upon evidence from an extensive review of literature on plagiarism and two rounds of interviews with Chinese postgraduate students over a period of 15 months, this paper argues that although difference in cultural values has a role to play in the accusation of plagiarism, and excessive emphasis on culture may result in a dismissive attitude towards Chinese learning practices.
Item 2
In her warning against the rise in plagiarism, Carroll (2004) suggests that lack of understanding is at the root of unintended plagiarism (cf. intentional violations or fraud (Howard, 2001)).
Item 3
Cultural issues, as some may claim, play a significant role in why students plagiarise (Zobel and Hamilton, 2002; Shei, 2004, 2006), or perhaps more accurately, in why students are perceived to plagiarise by their teachers.
Item 4
Hall’s observation of “hidden cultures” (1976) reminds us that when we judge the practices of the “other” on the basis of our own practices, values and perceptions which we believe are the norm because they are shared by people around us and reinforced by the context in which we work and live, we may not see what we think we have seen. When the power relationships between “we” and “the other” are in favour of the former, we are more likely to believe the practices of the “other” to be cultural whilst our own remain the norm. This is indeed a form of cultural exclusivism that Pennycook (1994) roundly criticizes in Dickert’s claims which present “the supposedly Western tradition” as superior to “ the supposedly Chinese tradition” (1993, p. 132).
Item 5
… Others, however, argue that cultural conditioning is not the major culprit of plagiarism (Liu, 2005; Phan, 2006). This paper takes a similar stance: culture plays an important but not deterministic role in understanding change in Chinese c students’ perceptions of plagiarism.
Item 6
Pennycook (1996) points to the complex context of plagiarism, arguing that notions of ownership, authorship and intellectual property which have developed in the Western context are subject to their distinctive cultural and historical specificities.
Item 7
It is important to note that in investigating Chinese students’ experiences and perceptions of plagiarism, it is not our intention to suggest that accusations of plagiarism are restricted specifically to Chinese students.
Item 8
In the academic community, despite a lack of consensus on the definition of plagiarism (Pennycook, 1994, 1996; Howard, 2000; Briggs, 2003), the prevalent institutional strategy for student plagiarism continues to be containment and punishment (Kolich, 1983; Howard, 1995; Decoo, 2002; Price, 2002; Zobel and Hamilton, 2002; Briggs, 2003).
